copied!<p>It's actually pretty straightforward. A folder in Google Drive is a <code>GoogleDrive::Collection</code> (<a href="http://gimite.net/doc/google-drive-ruby/GoogleDrive/Collection.html" rel="noreferrer">http://gimite.net/doc/google-drive-ruby/GoogleDrive/Collection.html</a>) in <a href="https://github.com/gimite/google-drive-ruby/" rel="noreferrer">google-drive-ruby gem</a>. Therefore, what you may do with google-drive-ruby is first create a file, and then add it to a collection via the <code>GoogleDrive::Collection#add(file)</code> method. </p> <p>This also mimics the way that Google Drive actually works: upload a file to the root collection/folder, <em>then</em> add it to other collections/folders.</p> <p>Here's some sample code, which I had written. It should work - with perhaps some minor tweaking for your specific use case - based on the context that you had provided:</p> <pre><code># this example assumes the presence of an authenticated # `GoogleDrive::Session` referenced as `session` # and a file named `test.zip` in the same directory # where this example is being executed # upload the file and get a reference to the returned # GoogleSpreadsheet::File instance file = session.upload_from_file("test.zip", "test") # get a reference to the collection/folder to which # you want to add the file, via its folder name folder = session.collection_by_title("my-folder-name") # add the file to the collection/folder. # note, that you may add a file to multiple folders folder.add(file) </code></pre> <p>Further, if you only want to create a new folder, without putting any files in it, then just add it to the root collection:</p> <pre><code>session.root_collection.create_subcollection("my-folder-name") </code></pre>
