How To Get Started In Google Apps Script

Initially intended to extend G Suite apps, I like to think of Google Apps Script as a gateway to more kinds of development. Think of it as workflow glue and the power of programming that can interract with Google Apps and external APIs too!

Purpose

Provide a living document for whenever someone asks, " so, how do i get started with Google Apps Script?".

Working Outline

Just the orgainizing principles and some key links.

1 Starting point: Good Things to Keep in Mind

Scripts are 'bound' to a container like sheets, docs, slides or forms. These can be accessed from the containing doc and opened say in sheets by going to the menu Tools > Script editor. Scripts can also be standalone for addons or web apps. Your script home page is a dashboard found here script.google.com. The help link there will get you to an explanation of the dashboard.

Ok, I geeked out, and this is probably more information than you need. But it completely answers the question. Sorry. ☺

Locally, I'm at this commit:

When I added FIRST/NEXT/LAST, it was idiomatic but not quite so fast. This makes it faster. Another little bit of masak++'s program.

Description

Working out an atom setup for my GAS work with DevFlow and work adventures. I like to setup on macOS and on Ubuntu running in Crouton on a Chromebook in developer mode.

Requirements

In an atom project, for *.gs, *.js, and *.ts files support:

• nested namespacing autocomplete for the project
• nested namespacing autocomplete for GAS basic and advanced services(?)
• nice to have hover and hyperclick features

Retrieving Values from Filtered Sheet in Spreadsheet using Google Apps Script

This is a sample script for retrieving values from filtered Sheet in Spreadsheet using Google Apps Script. When the values are retrieved the filtered sheet by the basic filter, if setValues() and setDisplayValues() are used, all values without the filter are retrieved. In this script, I would like to introduce the method for retrieving the values from the filtered sheet using Google Apps Script.

In order to retrieve the values from the filtered sheet, one method has already been proposed. That method retrieved the values from the filtered sheet by retrieving columnMetadata and rowMetadata of the method of spreadsheet.get of Sheets API. In this case, the rows and columns hidden by the filter can be retrieved.

In this sample script, columnMetadata and rowMetadata of the method of spreadsheet.get of Sheets API are not used. The values are directly retrieved.
