Description
Whether you’re moving from Microsoft Office to Google Docs or simply want to learn how to automate Docs with Google Apps Script, this practical guide shows you by example how to work with each of the major Apps Script services.
Office still supports VBA, but it’s not likely to do so for much longer. If you’re a VBA or .NET developer, you’ll learn how to port existing VBA code and structure to their JavaScript-based Apps Script equivalents with minimal effort. Author Bruce Mcpherson introduces JavaScript basics for experienced developers unfamiliar with the language, and demonstrates ways to build real-world apps using all of the Apps Script services previously covered.
Use App Script’s equivalent of Excel’s object model
Target the most commonly used parts of Microsoft Word
Automate processes in Gmail, Calendar, and Contacts
Access the local client filesystem with Google Drive
Build and run applications in a browser
Store persistent data conveniently
Render HTML content in response to HTTP requests
Automate the maintenance and creation of pages and content
Interact with a REST service or NoSQL database
Access Apps Script capabilities from other platforms
