To upload a file I use "client.put_file(filename, f)" what should I use to download?
Hi, I'm uploading files to Dropbox from an Arduino Yun using the Python.
This is the code (working fine) I use to upload
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import dropbox
import datetime
suffix = datetime.datetime.now().strftime("%Y%m%d%H%M")
filename = suffix + ".jpg"
client = dropbox.client.DropboxClient('my token here')
f = open('/mnt/sda1/pic.jpg', 'rb')
response = client.put_file(filename, f)
print "uploaded:", response
can you please show me the equivalent to download a file named "myfile.txt" an store it with the same name on the Yun's directory "/mnt/sda1/"
Many thanks in advance
The 'dropbox.client' functionality you're using is actually for the deprecated API v1. You should update to the latest version and use it as documented here, which uses API v2.
To upload a file, you would use files_upload. To download a file you would use files_download or files_download_to_file. There's an example that showing uploading and downloading.
