Direct file upload to google drive from website

Hello!

I'm writing a small Node.js web app to upload files to a shared Google Drive folder.

Login to the application will be via Google APIs OAuth 2.0 protocol. After this the user will be able to send files to my shared folder.

Typically the file is first uploaded to the server and then uploaded to shared folder.

However, this results in wasted time and resource consumption when working with large files.

Is there a way to upload a file directly from the client browser under the client Google Account?
