B4A Class Dropbox API V2. All HTTP! All using httputils2

Update April 2017:
Google has changed the ability to use a Webview to get an OAuth-Token. Due to this change it no longer works to get an OAuth-Token using a Webview.
This library is not useable anymore except if you use the Lib only using YOUR token which is hardcoded in your app. This will work.
But if you need to get Access to a Users Dropbox then you can´t use this lib anymore. I suggest to switch to my Java-Wrap for the Drobox Api V2. Here you are able to get an OAuth-Token as this lib does not depend on a Webview.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

As you can read here Dropbox has decided to deprecate the Sync and Datastore APIs over the next 12 months. Drobox has now released an new preview site for the new V2 API

Dropbox released an API Explorer for their V2 api.
See the announce too for the explorer.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This thread is about the HTTP version of the new Dropbox V2 api.
See the documentation here: https://www.dropbox.com/developers-preview/documentation/http#documentation

The attached B4A Library is using this new HTTP Api

The Library is available as Library (jar + xml). Please download DropboxV2_libraryfiles_v091.zip to get the files. Extract the content to your additional Librariespath

Please download DropboxHTTPv2librarysource_V0.91 if you want to change the class. Use this project and compile it to a library to get the correct jar and xml created by yourself
In most cases you dont need this one.

  • add_folder_member (shared_folder_id As String, email As String, dropbox_id As String, access_level As String, quiet As Boolean, custom_message As String) As String
    Allows an owner or editor (if the ACL update
    policy allows) of a shared folder to add
    another member.
    For the new member To get access To all the
    functionality For this folder, you will need
    To call mount_folder on their behalf.
    Warning: This endpoint Is in beta And Is subject To
    minor but possibly backwards-incompatible changes.
  • check_job_status (async_job_id As String) As String
    Returns the status of an asynchronous job.
    Warning: This endpoint Is in beta And Is subject To
    minor but possibly backwards-incompatible changes.
  • check_share_job_status (async_job_id As String) As String
    Returns the status of an asynchronous job for

    minor but possibly backwards-incompatible changes.
  • copy (fromPath As String, toPath As String) As String
    Copy a file or folder to a different location in

    Note that in the returned PathLinkMetadata, the
    PathLinkMetadata.url field Is the shortened URL
    If CreateSharedLinkArg.short_url argument Is set
    to True.
    Previously, it was technically possible To break
    a shared link by moving Or renaming the corresponding
    File Or folder. In the future, this will no longer
    be the Case, so your app shouldn't rely on this
    behavior. Instead, if your app needs to revoke a
    shared link, use revoke_shared_link.

  • uploadsessionstart (sessionMap As Map) As String

First we need to initialize the Class

dbx.Initialize(Me,"DropBox","access_token",True)

If you want to use the class just "with your dropbox" then you can create a access_token in the Dropbox App console.

You can find an example of not using pre-created access_token in Post #45 of this thread.. It is using the OAuth2 Flow to get access to a users Dropbox.

In order they are listed on the Previewdocumentation site i´ll post Examples (or just description on how to) for each of the used endpoints.

dbx.GetAccount("dbid:AAB2cfhttqMg1RjLLRlFzYWWoY6lUpWKsKo")
' Event
Sub DropBox_Account(meta As Map)
    Log("Dropbox_Account: "&meta)
End Sub

Get information about a user's account. In this case it wil get informations about MY (DonManfred) dropboxaccount.

dbx.GetCurrentAccount
' Event
Sub DropBox_CurrentAccount(meta As Map)
    Log("Dropbox_CurrentAccount: "&meta)
End Sub

Get information about the current user's account. It will result in giving YOUR (the developer) account.

dbx.GetSpaceUsage

' Event
Sub DropBox_SpaceUsage(space As Map)
    Log($"DropBox_SpaceUsage(${space})"$)
End Sub

Get the space usage information for the current user's account.

dbx.GetMetadata("/b4arulez.gif")

' Event
Sub DropBox_MetaData(meta As Map)
    Log("Dropbox_MetaData: "&meta)
End Sub

Returns the metadata for a file or folder.

dbx.Listfolder("/Export")
' dbx.ListfolderContinue is called from the result-sub
' automatically if there are more results

' Event
Sub DropBox_ListFolder(meta As Map)
    Log("Dropbox_Listfolder: "&meta)
    Dim cursor As String = meta.Get("cursor")
    Dim has_more As String = meta.Get("has_more")
    Dim entries As List = meta.Get("entries")
    For Each colentries As Map In entries
        Dim path_lower As String = colentries.Get("path_lower")
        Dim name As String = colentries.Get("name")
        filelistfolder.Add(name)

        Dim tag As String = colentries.Get(".tag")
    Next
    If has_more = True Then
        dbx.ListfolderContinue(cursor)
    Else
        Log("No more files")
        Log($"FilesInFolder(${filelistfolder.Size})"$)
        For i = 0 To filelistfolder.Size-1
            LogColor(filelistfolder.Get(i),Colors.Yellow)
        Next
        Dim resulting_files As List = WildCardFilesList(filelistfolder,"*.csv",True,True)
        For i = 0 To resulting_files.Size-1
            LogColor(resulting_files.Get(i),Colors.Green)
        Next

        'kvs.PutObject("filelistfolder", filelistfolder)
    End If

End Sub

Returns the contents of a folder.
NOTE (from Dropbox): We're definitely going to streamline this interface.

dbx.GetLatestCursor("/",False)

' Event
Sub DropBox_LatestCursor(meta As Map)
    Log("DropBox_LatestCursor()")
    Dim cursor As String = meta.Get("cursor")
    longpollcursor = cursor
    kvs.PutSimple("longpollcursor",cursor)
    Log("longpollcursor set: "&cursor)
End Sub

A way to quickly get a cursor for the folder's state. Unlike list_folder, list_folder/get_latest_cursor doesn't return any entries. This endpoint is for app which only needs to know about new files and modifications and doesn't need to know about files that already exist in Dropbox.

dbx.Download("/9-patch-assets.zip",File.DirDefaultExternal,"9patch.zip")


' Event is missing as yet.

Download a file from a user's Dropbox.

Update:: August, 20th, 2017
If you want to use Dropbox to connect to the USERS Dropbox (not YOURS) then you should look at the DropboxV2-OAuth2.zip example. It shows the way on how to get an Axccesstoken using the V2 endpoints.


The following methods are missing totally as yet: TODO

- Restore

TODO:

-

Dependencies:
- httputils2 (okHTTP)
- JSON
- RandomAcessFile
- KeyValueStore (used in example but not really needed by the class or Library)


This Class is open source and free to used and extended by anyone!

If you want to donate for my work building the class you can do it here:

 

[rafaelmotaquintana]

When trying to use the sample code to get the user token, I get this error from dropbox:

Error (400)
It seems the app you were using submitted a bad request. If you would like to report this error to the app's developer, include the information below.


More details for developers
Invalid redirect_uri. It must exactly match one of the redirect URIs you've pre-configured for your app (including the path

it happens in this line

www.LoadUrl("https://www.dropbox.com/1/oauth2/authorize?client_id="& Main.clientID &"&response_type=token&redirect_uri=http://127.0.0.1/")



WHat Am I missing?
Thanks

 

[DonManfred]

Did you check this error? For the code you posted you need to have configured the url http://127.0.0.1/ when creating the app in the Dropbox developer console

 

[rafaelmotaquintana]

Did you check this error? For the code you posted you need to have configured the url http://127.0.0.1/ when creating the app in the Dropbox developer console

That was it.
It was no so clear, its the first time I deal with something like that.
Thanks.

 

[rafaelmotaquintana]

Does anybody happens to know how to test if a folder exists?
Using listfolder, listfolders or search works if the folder exists, but if it doesn't exists, no event is raised so I can not know.

 

[DonManfred]

get a list of the parent folder and see if your folder is available in the result

 

[rafaelmotaquintana]

Done. Thanks

 

[rafaelmotaquintana]

While uploading a file, If the device goes to idle (screen off), after turn it on, activity resume is launched.
How do I know if there's a dropbox operation currently running, like download or upload?

 

[DonManfred]

You need to remember yourself when starting a upload/download. Internal it is using a httpjob to transfer.
so, if the resulting event is raised then the file is up/downloaded.

 

[rafaelmotaquintana]

Ok I understand. By the way, I made this experiment, while uploading a big file, I disconnected the device from the internet, and I'd like to know if there's an event that raises so I could check if there is a problem. I the meantime, a message 'Uploading file' keeps forever displayed.

 

[DonManfred]

i don´t think there is an event.
the httpjob is running. If it stops the JobDone in the Dropbox-Class is raised. Maybe there is an error in the log?!

Hi

When I download large files (around 50 MB, sometimes less), my app is closed by Android because of an OutOfMemoryError. Is there a workaround for this problem? Here is the stack trace:

java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Failed to allocate a 69075310 byte allocation with 16777216 free bytes and 47MB until OOM

does not look like an problem in the lib. sounds more like an problem in your code.
What do you do with the file which is downloaded?

What is your code used?

I think the problem is in the httputils2 lib, not directly in the Dropbox lib. It's a SQLite database file, but the app is closed in the middle of the download, so I do nothing with the file yet. Here is the relevant part of the code:

Sub Class_Globals
   Private dbx As DropBox
End Sub

Public Sub DownloadFile(RemoteFile As String)
    Dim Tempstr As String
    Dim LocalPath As String
    Dim LocalFile As String
   
    Tempstr = DivelogFolder & "/" & RemoteFile
   
    If Command = "DownloadMF" Then
        LocalPath = File.DirInternal
        LocalFile = m_MetadataFile
    Else
        LocalPath = Common.LogDir
        LocalFile = m_SyncInfo.SqliteFile
    End If
   
    Try
        dbx.Download(Tempstr, LocalPath, LocalFile)
    Catch
        If Command = "DownloadMF" Then
            DeleteMetadataFile
            m_AvailableLogbooks.Clear
            m_SyncInfo.Available = False
            If SubExists(m_Callback, m_Event & "_SyncInfoChanged") Then
                CallSub(m_Callback, m_Event & "_SyncInfoChanged")
            End If
        Else
            Log(LastException)
            ToastMessageShow(Command & " Error: " & LastException, True)
        End If
    End Try
   
End Sub

bump.. does this library still work?

any info if we can wrap the v2 (https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-java)

This library IS using the V2 Api... The java version does nothing other. But you need to write a wrapper for the java part to make it useable with b4a.

Hi!
In FileUpload, is there an event that will trigger Upload Fail?

UploadSessionStatus doesn't seem to trigger upload fail, i tried it without network connection but it does not work.

Hello DonManfred:

I have developped a project with B4A-V3.82.
Communicating through emails and ftp with different servers.
I want to expand communications via DropBox.
I see The Sync API has-been deprecated.
As is impossible DropBox V3.82.

Supports your new Dropbox API V2 with B4A-V3.82?
I need to acquire new version of B4a?

I dont know. Try it and you´ll know.
I suggest to update to b4a 6. Your version is 3 Years old...
