Usage

First, you need to instantiate the SharepointUpload class with the SharePoint URL and your credentials. Then you can upload files with the upload method.

Basic Example

const SharepointUpload = require('sharepoint-upload');

const uploader = new SharepointUpload({
  url: 'https://your-sharepoint-site.com/Documents/MyFolder',
  credentials: {
    username: 'your-username',
    password: 'your-password'
  },
  options: {
    verbose: true, // Enable progress logging
    logger: console  // Use console for logging
  }
});

(async () => {
  try {
    await uploader.upload('path/to/file.txt');
    console.log('File uploaded successfully!');
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error during upload:', error);
  }
})();

Chunked Uploads

This utility splits large files into chunks (default 48MB) and uploads them in parts, ensuring reliable and efficient file transfer.

Configuration

The SharepointUpload class accepts the following options:

url: The SharePoint folder URL where the file will be uploaded.
credentials: The credentials required for authentication, including:
- username: Your SharePoint username.
- password: Your SharePoint password.
options: (Optional) Additional options for logging and verbosity.
- verbose: If set to true, progress logs will be displayed during the upload.
- logger: Specify a custom logger. Defaults to console.

Example of Options

const uploader = new SharepointUpload({
  url: 'https://your-sharepoint-site.com/Documents/MyFolder',
  credentials: {
    username: 'your-username',
    password: 'your-password'
  },
  options: {
    verbose: true, // Enable progress logging
    logger: customLoggerInstance // Use a custom logger instead of console
  }
});

Methods

`upload(filePath, options)`

Uploads a file to SharePoint.

Parameters:

filePath: string – The path to the file to be uploaded.
options: object (optional):
- fileName: string – Custom name for the file in SharePoint. Defaults to the original filename.

Example

await uploader.upload('path/to/file.txt', { fileName: 'new-file-name.txt' });

This method will split the file into chunks (if large enough) and upload it to the specified folder on SharePoint. If the file already exists, it will be overwritten.
