Instructions:

There are two ways to go about:

Method 1 starts from here

  1. Go to https://console.cloud.google.com/projectcreate
  2. Name the project whatever you want and click create.
  3. Next to "Google Cloud Platform," click the Down arrow image and select your project.
  4. At the top-left corner, click the hamburger menu icon: image Click APIs & Services > Credentials.
  5. Click Configure Consent Screen. The "OAuth consent screen" screen appears.
  6. Set user type to external and click create.
  7. Fill in the required details, you can give your own email as dev and support email. Click save and continue.
  8. For the scopes page leave it as it is and click save and continue.
  9. Now add yourself (your email id) as the test user by pressing add users. Click save and continue.
  10. Now on your left, under API & Services, you will see Dashboard. Click on it and then click on Enable APIs and Services.
  11. Search for Google Drive and click on the result that says Google Drive API and then click on Enable.
  12. Now do step 4 again.
  13. Click Create Credentials > OAuth client ID.
  14. Choose application type as Desktop, name it whatever you want and click create.
  15. The newly created credential appears under "OAuth 2.0 Client IDs." Click the download button to the right of the newly-created OAuth 2.0 Client ID. We will get a client_secret.json file, we will need this for the next section.
  16. Now once again, at the top-left corner, click the hamburger menu icon: image Click APIs & Services > OAuth Consent Screen.
  17. Under Publishing Status you will see a button called PUBLISH APP, click on that and choose confrim.

Method 2 starts from here

  1. Use the colab notebook to easily obtain the token and the required code for the cloudflare proxy:

Open In Colab

  1. Run the cell of the respective method number you chose. Just press the circular play button beside the rectangular box.

  2. Login with your google account. Copy the js code and copy the token string for later when we deploy the heroku backend, the token should look something like this:

{"token": "jhgdfgdhgfh", "refresh_token": "1//sdhgbfdhghd", "token_uri": "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token", "client_id": "hsdgfjhgfsd.apps.googleusercontent.com", "client_secret": "gfsdfsdgf", "scopes": ["https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive"]}

Skip to Deploying to heroku if you dont want to use a proxy.

  1. Go to https://dash.cloudflare.com/ log in or sign up.
  2. Open the Workers option.
  3. Create your sub-domain or continue if already done.
  4. Select the Free Plan. Click on Create a Worker. You can rename the workers at top of the page.
  5. In the Script{} box you will see some code, delete all that and paste the js code that you obtained in step 18 there.

Deploying to heroku:

Deploy to Heroku

  1. Hit the deploy button.
  2. Paste the token string in the token field.
  3. Copy your cloudflare worker url and paste it in the cf proxy url field. Leave it blank to use the addon without the proxy.
  4. Hit deploy.

Installing the addon to your Stremio account:

  1. Get the url of the heroku app you deployed. Add /manifest.json to the end. For example if my herokuapp url is https://your-stremiogdrive.herokuapp.com add /manifest.json to the end to get: https://your-stremiogdrive.herokuapp.com/manifest.json. Copy this url.
  2. Open stremio on desktop or android and go to addons section.
  3. In the search bar paste the manifest link (https://your-stremiogdrive.herokuapp.com/manifest.json) and press enter. Click install and you are done.

How the addon works

The addon uses the drive api to search for video files in your drive (both your teamdrives and mydrive) kinda like using the google drive web search bar.

So after setting up the addon go and search for something on stremio. When you open a search result, stremio will ask the addon if it has the video for the search result. The addon searches for the video in your google drive and if it gets any result it will give it to stremio and stremio will display the results.

For example if I want to watch a movie, say its called Pirates of the Goolag, then:

The addon searches for:

For the sake of security please don't share your herokuapp url or your cloudflare workers proxy url. They can be used to get files from your drive.
