Supports offline sync and sync in Google Drive Realtime API

I want to create a mobile web app with transparent offline support and sync for persistent data collaboration. I am considering using the Google Drive realtime API for the backend. How well does offline mode and API-supported sync work? Does it just work "automatically" from the included API scripts, or should I be using some "plugin"? I've searched for documentation with no luck.

What I mean by offline support and sync support is what offline should be possible

- edit the latest synced version of a document/object previously retrieved from the server
- create new documents/objects
- store all documents/objects locally

      

Once the application is online again, all modifications and new documents / objects stored locally must be "merged" or "synchronized" with the server versions.

No explicit offline support. The API will work well with flaky internet connections, but you can't download or build completely offline.



I'm not sure what you mean by sync support, but if you have an internet connection, it automatically syncs contributors' changes and saves them to the server.
