Feature request: Support google keep

[okin-88]

Is it possible to support google keep aswell?
https://developers.google.com/workspace/keep/api/reference/rest

My plan:
Alexa lists (shopping list / to-do-list) -> ioBroker.alexa2 -> ioBroker.javascript -> ioBroker.google-spreadsheet (or maybe "ioBroker.google-keep")

Hi @okin-88,

from a technical perspective it would be no problem to support the Google Keep API. It's more an architectural decision.

Option 1: Support Google Keep (and other Google APIs) in iobroker.google-spreadsheet

Pros:

• No bureaucracy
• Fastest way
• Only one adapter to install and maintain

Cons:

• Does not fit the name of the adapter
• Will be hard to explain why the adapter supports other APIs

Option 2: Rename iobroker.google-spreadsheet to iobroker.google-apis (the name isn't ideal anyway)

Pros:

• Functionality fits the name
• Only one adapter to install and maintain

Cons:

• I don't know if there is a way to automatically migrate users from the old adapter to the new one
• If that's not possible, users would be stuck with an old, unmaintained adapter

Option 3: Add a new iobroker.google-keep adapter

Pros:

• Functionality fits the name
• Users only get what they need/want (smaller memory footprint)

Cons:

• Multiple adapters with similar functionality (we would need an adapter for each Google API)

I am willing to go any of these ways, but I'm not sure what fits best with the ioBroker strategy. Could you give some guidance here?

Ok, I discussed the issue on iobroker discord. It will be a new adapter. That will make it easier for new users to know which adapter needs to be used

Glad to hear that, I'm excited to test it!

Update:

Google Keep's API doesn't support service accounts, so we'll need an alternative authentication method. I conside adopting an approach like https://github.com/kiwiz/gkeepapi.
