Large File Upload Task - Uploading large files to OneDrive

This task simplifies the implementation of OneDrive's resumable upload.

Creating the client instance

Refer this documentation for initializing the client.

Uploading from browser

HTML to select the file for uploading.

<input id="fileUpload" type="file" onchange="fileUpload(this)" />

Get files from the input element and start uploading.

async function fileUpload(elem) {
	let file = elem.files[0];
	try {
		let response = await largeFileUpload(client, file, file.name);
		console.log(response);
		console.log("File Uploaded Successfully.!!");
	} catch (error) {
		console.error(error);
	}
}

async function largeFileUpload(client, file) {
	try {
		let options = {
			path: "/Documents",
			fileName: file.name,
			rangeSize: 1024 * 1024,
		};
		const uploadTask = await MicrosoftGraph.OneDriveLargeFileUploadTask.create(client, file, options);
		const response = await uploadTask.upload();
		return response;
	} catch (err) {
		throw err;
	}
}

Uploading from NodeJS

function uploadFile() {
	fs.readFile("<PATH_OF_THE_FILE>", {}, function(err, file) {
		if (err) {
			throw err;
		}
		let fileName = "<NAME_OF_THE_FILE_WITH_EXTN>";
		oneDriveLargeFileUpload(client, file, fileName)
			.then((response) => {
				console.log(response);
				console.log("File Uploaded Successfully.!!");
			})
			.catch((error) => {
				throw err;
			});
	});
}

async function oneDriveLargeFileUpload(client, file, fileName) {
	try {
		let options = {
			path: "/Documents",
			fileName,
			rangeSize: 1024 * 1024,
		};
		const uploadTask = await OneDriveLargeFileUploadTask.create(client, file, options);
		const response = await uploadTask.upload();
		return response;
	} catch (err) {
		console.log(err);
	}
}

We can just resume the broken upload

Lets consider some break down happens in the middle of uploading, with the uploadTask object in hand you can resume easily.

uploadTask.resume();

Even you can control the whole upload process

You can create the upload task, and play with it by using sliceFile and uploadSlice methods

let range = uploadTask.getNextRange();
let slicedFile = uploadTask.sliceFile(range);
uploadTask.uploadSlice(slicedFile, range, uploadTask.file.size);

Uploading with custom options

You can pass in the customized options using LargeFileUploadTask

async function largeFileUpload(client, file) {
	const fileName = file.name;
	const driveId = "<YOUR_DRIVE_ID>";
	const path = "<LOCATION_TO_STORE_FILE>";
	try {
		const requestUrl = `/drives/${driveId}/root:${path}/${fileName}:/createUploadSession`;
		const payload = {
			item: {
				"@microsoft.graph.conflictBehavior": "fail",
				name: fileName,
			},
		};
		const fileObject = {
			size: file.size,
			content: file,
			name: fileName,
		};
		const uploadSession = await LargeFileUploadTask.createUploadSession(client, requestUrl, payload);
		const uploadTask = await new LargeFileUploadTask(client, fileObject, uploadSession);
		const response = await uploadTask.upload();
		return response;
	} catch (err) {
		throw err;
	}
}
