Description

I am trying to export an image to Google Cloud Storage and from the bucket to my local fs in 2 steps (ee_image_to_gcs() and ee_gcs_to_local()). The first step exporting to GCS works fine, but downloading from GCS fails. I have resorted to using the goolCloudStorageR package, but that is suboptimal and I prefer native rgee functions.

Digging a bit, the error seems to come from sort_drive_files() in L1155 and 1156

What I Did

    ee_Initialize(user = "user", gcs = T)
    # Create image
    img <- ee$ImageCollection("MODIS/006/MOD13A2")$
      filterDate('2020-01-01', '2021-01-01')$
      filterBounds(ee$Geometry$BBox(25,45,30,50))$
      select("EVI")$
      mean()$
      clip(ee$Geometry$BBox(25,45,30,50))
    task_img <- ee_image_to_gcs(img, bucket = "my_bucket",
       scale = 1000, fileFormat = "GEO_TIFF",
       region = ee$Geometry$BBox(25,45,30,50), fileNamePrefix = "EVI")
    task_img$start()
    ee_monitoring(task_img)
    r <- ee_gcs_to_local(task = task_img, dsn = paste(tmp, "EVI", sep = '/'))

Error message:

Error in order(drive_files[["name"]]) : argument 1 is not a vector

P.S.: In the googleCloudStoageR approach, I am noticing a HUGE delay between the exporting of the images ee_image_to_gcs() and them being available through googleCloudStoageR::gcs_get_object(). Using ee_gcs_to_local(task = task_img) is instantaneous!! 🎉...
