Gmail API PHP Client Library - How do you send large attachments using the PHP client library?

问题

I'm using Google's PHP client library to send calls to Gmail's API. Using those resources, I can send messages with attachments using code like this:

public function send_message(Google_Service_Gmail $gmail, $raw_message)
{
    Log::info('Gmail API request \'users_messages->send\'');
    $postBody = new Google_Service_Gmail_Message();
    $postBody->setRaw(Str::base64_encode_url($raw_message));
    return $gmail->users_messages->send('me', $postBody, ['uploadType' => 'multipart']);
}

But I can't for the life of me figure out how send attachments larger than a few MB. I've found that it is necessary to use multipart uploadtype, but I can figure out exactly how to implement that based on what I currently have, as the code above still gives me this error:

Error calling POST https://www.googleapis.com/gmail/v1/users/me/messages/send?uploadType=multipart
Error 413: Request Entity Too Large

This article has really good broad strokes information, but I'm hoping for a little bit more guidance specific to Google's PHP client library.

EDIT: According to this page, the maximum upload size is actually 35 MB. The size specified in my php.ini is sufficient for this, and the requests fails as a 413 from google, not an internal server error.

Not too familiar with the GMail API, but you should be able to use chunked uploads to reduce the size of each individual request. Take a look at the file upload sample in the client Github: https://github.com/google/google-api-php-client/blob/master/examples/fileupload.php#L73

$media = new Google_Http_MediaFileUpload(
  $client,
  $request,
  'text/plain',
  null,
  true,
  $chunkSizeBytes
);

$media->setFileSize(filesize(TESTFILE));
$status = false;
$handle = fopen(TESTFILE, "rb");
while (!$status && !feof($handle)) {
  $chunk = fread($handle, $chunkSizeBytes);
  $status = $media->nextChunk($chunk);
}

If you have already prepared raw email, you can use this example (originally taken from here):

// size of chunks we are going to send to google    
$chunkSizeBytes = 1 * 1024 * 1024;

// actual raw email message
$mailMessage = 'raw email text with files embedded'

// code to create mime message
$googleClient = new Google_Client();

// code to setup the client
$mailService = new Google_Service_Gmail($googleClient);
$message = new Google_Service_Gmail_Message();

// Call the API with the media upload, defer so it doesn't immediately return.
$googleClient->setDefer(true);

$request = $mailService->users_messages->send('me', $message);

// create mediafile upload
$media = new Google_Http_MediaFileUpload(
    $googleClient,
    $request,
    'message/rfc822',
    $mailMessage,
    true,
    $chunkSizeBytes
);
$media->setFileSize(strlen($mailMessage));

// Upload the various chunks. $status will be false until the process is complete.
$status = false;
while (! $status) {
    $status = $media->nextChunk();
}

// Reset to the client to execute requests immediately in the future.
$googleClient->setDefer(false);

// Get sent email message id
$googleMessageId = $status->getId();
