Create Folder Tree of Google Drive using Node.js

This is a sample script for retrieving a folder tree using Node.js. In this sample, you can set the top of folder for the folder tree. In generally, the folder tree is created by retrieving folders from the top folder in order. For example, when Google Apps Script is used, the script becomes like this. But when Drive API is used for this situation, if there are a lot of folders in the top folder, a lot of APIs are required to be called. So in this sample, I have tried to create the folder tree by a small number of API calls as possible.

In this sample, in order to be easy to understand the flow, I used Quickstart for Node.js. When you use this sample script, at first, please check the document of Quickstart. And I confirmed that this sample worked at googleapis v30.0.0.

Flow :

1. Retrieve all folders in Google Drive.
