Google Docs and Drive API client for the Document Creator module.
This module provides direct Google Drive and Docs API access without touching the local database. Use it when you need raw Drive operations: creating files, listing folders, moving files, exporting PDFs, reading document content, and substituting template variables.
For combined Drive + DB operations, use PhoenixKitDocumentCreator.Documents.
Capabilities

OAuth credentials and tokens are managed by PhoenixKit.Integrations
under the "google" provider. The module references the active
connection by uuid via the "google_connection" field in the
"document_creator_settings" row — active_integration_uuid/0 is
the resolver. Pre-uuid values ("google" / "google:name" strings)
are auto-migrated to the matching integration row's uuid on first
read; the rewritten setting then drives all subsequent dispatches.
Folder configuration is stored separately under the
"document_creator_folders" settings key.
Summary
Functions
Returns the uuid of the active Google integration, or nil if none
has been chosen.
Append a template's content to an existing Google Doc via batchUpdate.
Send a batchUpdate request to a Google Doc.
Builds the list of batchUpdate request maps to substitute image tags.
Builds a single image insert request map.
Check if connected. Returns {:ok, %{email: email}} or {:error, reason}.
Copy a Google Doc for use as the base of a composed document.
Copy a file in Google Drive. Returns the new file's ID.
Create a new blank Google Doc in a specific folder.

Resolve the current parent folder and path for a Drive file.
Fetch Google Drive file metadata needed for sync classification.
Find a folder by name, optionally within a parent folder.
Returns {:ok, folder_id} or {:error, :not_found}.
Scans a documents.get response for image tag occurrences.
Find a folder by name, or create it if it doesn't exist.
Optionally specify a parent folder.
Returns {:ok, folder_id}.
The Settings key used for folder configuration.
Get stored OAuth credentials via PhoenixKit.Integrations.
Read a Google Doc's full content.
Extract plain text content from a Google Doc (for variable detection).
Get the edit URL for a Google Doc.
Get configured folder paths and names from Settings, with defaults.
Get cached folder IDs from Settings, or discover them.
Get the Google Drive folder URL.
List Google Docs directly in a Drive folder (non-recursive, fully paginated).

Returns {:ok, [%{"id" => ..., "name" => ...}]}.
Move a file to a different folder in Google Drive.
Replace all {{variable}} placeholders in a Google Doc.
Keys are wrapped in {{ }} automatically.
Substitute all sections' variables and image params into a Google Doc in a single atomic pass per phase (text then image).
Two-step image substitution: GET the document, build the batch, send it.
Validate a Google Drive file/folder ID. Returns {:ok, id} or {:error, :invalid_file_id}.
Functions
@spec active_integration_uuid() :: String.t() | nil
Returns the uuid of the active Google integration, or nil if none
has been chosen.
The settings value at document_creator_settings.google_connection is
expected to be a UUIDv7 (the integration row's storage uuid). Older
installs may have a legacy "google" or "google:name" string here;
this function detects that, resolves it to the matching integration's
uuid, rewrites the setting, and returns the uuid. Subsequent calls
read the migrated value directly.
Append a template's content to an existing Google Doc via batchUpdate.
Inserts a page break followed by the full text content of template_doc_id
into target_doc_id. Returns {:ok, {start_index, end_index}} representing
the character range of the inserted content — callers use this for
section-scoped substitution.
Send a batchUpdate request to a Google Doc.
Builds the list of batchUpdate request maps to substitute image tags.
fills is a map keyed by variable name; each value carries kind,
default_width_px, separator (atom or nil), and media — a list of
%{uri, width_px, height_px}.
Empty media list = the tag is still deleted (cleared).
Builds a single image insert request map.
Options:
:insertion_index— document character index for insertion (required):config— map with:default_width_px,:opacity,:z_index(required)
When z_index > 0, emits a createPositionedObject with layout = "WRAP_TEXT".
When z_index <= 0, emits insertInlineImage (default inline behaviour).
Opacity application requires a follow-up UpdateEmbeddedObjectPropertiesRequest
with the object ID returned by the batchUpdate response — not emitted here.
A Logger warning is written when opacity != 1.0. This is a documented
no-op (open risk) per the spec's "Open Risks" section: applying transparency
requires a second batchUpdate pass after the initial insert, using the
embedded object ID from the first response. Not yet implemented.
Check if connected. Returns {:ok, %{email: email}} or {:error, reason}.
Copy a Google Doc for use as the base of a composed document.
Returns {:ok, new_doc_id}. The copy is named by its source doc ID so it
can be identified for best-effort cleanup on rollback before a final name
is applied.
@spec copy_file(String.t(), String.t(), keyword()) :: {:ok, String.t()} | {:error, :invalid_file_id | :copy_failed | term()}
Copy a file in Google Drive. Returns the new file's ID.
@spec create_document( String.t(), keyword() ) :: {:ok, %{doc_id: String.t(), name: String.t(), url: String.t() | nil}} | {:error, :create_document_failed | term()}
Create a new blank Google Doc in a specific folder.
@spec create_folder( String.t(), keyword() ) :: {:ok, String.t()} | {:error, :create_folder_failed | term()}
Create a folder in Google Drive. Optionally specify a parent folder.
Returns {:ok, folder_id}.
Delete (trash) a Google Doc. Used for best-effort cleanup after a failed composition.
Returns :ok or {:error, reason}.
@spec discover_folders() :: %{ templates_folder_id: String.t() | nil, documents_folder_id: String.t() | nil, deleted_templates_folder_id: String.t() | nil, deleted_documents_folder_id: String.t() | nil }
Discover templates, documents, and deleted folder IDs. Looks for folders by name in Drive root, creating them if they don't exist. Caches results in Settings.
Return the range {1, end_index} of the current content in a Google Doc.
Used by the Composer to pin section 0's range before any sections are appended. The range starts at index 1 because Google Docs body content always begins at 1.
Walk a path like "clients/active/templates", creating folders as needed.
Returns {:ok, leaf_folder_id}.
@spec export_pdf(String.t()) :: {:ok, binary()} | {:error, :invalid_file_id | :pdf_export_failed | term()}
Export a Google Doc as PDF. Returns {:ok, pdf_binary}.
@spec fetch_thumbnail(term()) :: {:ok, String.t()} | {:error, :no_doc_id | :no_thumbnail | :thumbnail_link_failed | :thumbnail_fetch_failed | :invalid_file_id | term()}
Fetch a document thumbnail as a base64 data URI via the Drive API.
@spec file_location(term()) :: {:ok, %{folder_id: String.t(), path: String.t(), trashed: boolean()}} | {:error, :invalid_file_id | :not_found | term()}
Resolve the current parent folder and path for a Drive file.
@spec file_status(term()) :: {:ok, %{trashed: boolean(), parents: [String.t()]}} | {:ok, :not_found} | {:error, :invalid_file_id | term()}
Fetch Google Drive file metadata needed for sync classification.
@spec find_folder_by_name( String.t(), keyword() ) :: {:ok, String.t()} | {:error, :not_found | :folder_search_failed | term()}
Find a folder by name, optionally within a parent folder.
Returns {:ok, folder_id} or {:error, :not_found}.
@spec find_image_tag_ranges(map(), [String.t()]) :: [ %{name: String.t(), start_index: integer(), end_index: integer()} ]
Scans a documents.get response for image tag occurrences.
Returns a flat list of %{name, start_index, end_index} covering every
occurrence in body content, headers, footers, and table cells, restricted
to the names supplied.
Offset note: Regex.scan(..., return: :index) returns byte offsets;
Google Docs startIndex counts UTF-16 code units. The implementation
converts byte offsets to UTF-16 code-unit counts via
:unicode.characters_to_binary/3 so supplementary-plane codepoints
(emoji, rare CJK) are counted as the two units a surrogate pair occupies.
Find a folder by name, or create it if it doesn't exist.
Optionally specify a parent folder.
Returns {:ok, folder_id}.
@spec folder_settings_key() :: String.t()
The Settings key used for folder configuration.
Get stored OAuth credentials via PhoenixKit.Integrations.
Read a Google Doc's full content.
Extract plain text content from a Google Doc (for variable detection).
Get the edit URL for a Google Doc.
@spec get_folder_config() :: map()
Get configured folder paths and names from Settings, with defaults.
@spec get_folder_ids() :: map()
Get cached folder IDs from Settings, or discover them.
Get the Google Drive folder URL.
List Google Docs directly in a Drive folder (non-recursive, fully paginated).
Returns {:ok, [%{"id" => ..., "name" => ..., "modifiedTime" => ..., "thumbnailLink" => ..., "parents" => [...]}]}.
For recursive traversal across subfolders, use
PhoenixKitDocumentCreator.GoogleDocsClient.DriveWalker.walk_tree/2.
List subfolders within a parent folder (non-recursive, fully paginated).
Returns {:ok, [%{"id" => ..., "name" => ...}]}.
@spec move_file(String.t(), String.t()) :: :ok | {:error, :invalid_file_id | :move_failed | :get_file_parents_failed | term()}
Move a file to a different folder in Google Drive.
Replace all {{variable}} placeholders in a Google Doc.
Keys are wrapped in {{ }} automatically.
@spec substitute_all_sections(String.t(), [map()], %{ required(non_neg_integer()) => {integer(), integer()} }) :: :ok | {:error, term()}
Substitute all sections' variables and image params into a Google Doc in a single atomic pass per phase (text then image).
sections is a list of %{position, variable_values, image_params} maps.
ranges maps each section position to its {start_index, end_index} in the
document. All positions must have a range entry — section 0's range must be
provided explicitly (use document_content_range/1 after copy, before append).
Each {{key}} placeholder in the document is matched against the section whose
range contains it; that section's variable_values[key] supplies the replacement.
Placeholders outside all section ranges are left untouched.
Text substitution runs before image substitution (per image-substitution.md) and the document is re-fetched between the two phases so image indices are accurate after text edits. All operations within a phase are batched in a single batchUpdate in reverse-index order so no substitution shifts the indices of another.
Two-step image substitution: GET the document, build the batch, send it.
fills is the same shape as build_image_batch_requests/2.
Options (used in tests):
:get_fn— overridesget_document/1:batch_fn— overridesbatch_update/2
Validate a Google Drive file/folder ID. Returns {:ok, id} or {:error, :invalid_file_id}.
