Hello all,
A while ago I wrote about a script I used to upload files to Dropbox from my Raspberry PI. Since then Dropbox has implemented OAuth v2 and gives you the opportunity to generate a token directly from their website.
With that token you can authenticate directly and run commands. You need Dropbox 2.0+ SDK.
Here’s the new script:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 |
#!/usr/bin/python # Include the Dropbox SDK libraries import dropbox import os import sys DEBUG = False TOKEN = '' if os.path.exists('token.txt'): with open('token.txt') as token_f: TOKEN = token_f.readline().rstrip() if DEBUG: print TOKEN # Create client client = dropbox.client.DropboxClient(TOKEN) if DEBUG: print "linked account:", client.account_info() noParams = len(sys.argv) if noParams < 2: print "Usage: upload_to_dropbox.py <file1> ..." sys.exit(0) for idx in range(1, noParams): f = open(sys.argv[idx]) filename = os.path.basename(sys.argv[idx]) response = client.put_file(filename, f, True) print "uploaded:", response |
Code is also available in my bitbucket: https://bitbucket.org/crazyquark/pydropboxutils
Enjoy.
P.S.
An older commit had some private keys in there but don’t worry, I deleted the credentials from my Dropbox account so they cannot be used anymore.
Plus, the repo used to be private.
