Dropbox REST API Authentication
Dropbox Rest API uses OAuth for authentication 산타나. When the Dropbox is accessed for the first time, the PHP Client retrieves a request token from Dropbox webservice. This token needs to be authorized for a Dropbox user account, so the user is redirected to an authentication page where they allow the app access to their account. Afterwards the user is redirected back to the web application, where DropPHP uses the previously stored request token (and secret) to retrieve an access token certificate form. This access token is saved and will be used to authorize any further API requests.
Setup
- Create a Dropbox App
- Copy & Paste the App key and secret to the PHP code, that creates the DropboxClient object:
$dropbox = new DropboxClient(array('app_key' => "YOUR_APP_KEY",‘app_secret’ => “YOUR_APP_SECRET”,’app_full_access’ => false, // if the app has full or folder only access),’en’); // language/country code - See sample.php. Your web application should run like the following logic (pseudo code):
If Then
Delete request token
Else
$dropbox->GetRequestToken
Save the request token secret
$dropbox->BuildAuthorizeUrl
Redirect to authorize url
Exit
EndIf
Do Dropbox stuff
Tokens
A token is an alpha-numeric code used to authorize API requests Naver Calendar pc. Each token has a secret key, which is like a password to use the token. DropPHP uses an array to store tokens:
Array
(
[t] => 6lj3i20m4fsgi6y
[s] => 2pn7x2bjsm3xvq8
)
At Index t is the actual token, s is the token secret. In sample.php, this array is just serialized and written to a file (function store_token) in the folder /tokens. You should use your own method to save and load tokens (i.e windows xp iso 한글 다운로드. MySQL). Of course you can put the tokens in PHP’s $_SESSION array, then you have have to re-authenticate every new session.
If you get a wrapper not found error, make sure the PHP extension OpenSLL is loaded in php.ini:
extension=php_openssl.dll

it give me error “Class ‘PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase’ not found” .
help to solve this error
ERROR ERROR ERROR, why is all the dropbox APIs written to anger me
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘*’, expecting ‘,’ or ‘;’ in D:\webserver\htdocs\DropBoxAPI\DropboxClient.php on line 20
same error.
i think php version error.
Create folder function not working in this api
same error.
i think php version error.
Part of my application broke, it appears it has to do with checking if a folder exists in the top of the Dropbox folder hierarchy, and then creating it if necessary.
Is there something obvious I’m doing wrong here?
Thanks!
[code]
function check_for_and_make_folders($dropbox){
$folders = array();
$files = $dropbox->GetFiles(“”, false );
return;
foreach($files as $file){
if($file->is_dir){
$folders[$file->name] = true;
}
}
if(!$folders[‘ServiceBuilder’]){
$dropbox->CreateFolder(“/ServiceBuilder”);
$dropbox->CreateFolder(“/ServiceBuilder/faces”);
$dropbox->CreateFolder(“/ServiceBuilder/charts”);
}
}
