Changelog

Version 2.0 Now supports OAuth2 connectivity to Dropbox. Please note Version 2 is not backwards compatible with version 1.

Installation

Firstly create a development app on Dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/apps. Set the permission type to be 'Scoped' and allow access to all Dropbox files.

Under OAuth2, copy the app key and secret - save this in env.php.

Under the Permissions tab, make sure files.content.readis selected.

Then, visit the directory this file is located in. This will allow you to authenticate with Dropbox.

Example code

List All Files in a Directory

<?php
require_once "connector.php";

$dc = new DropboxConnector();
echo $dc->listFiles("") // Replace "" with your directory, or leave blank string for the root directory.

?>

Get and return a file

<?php
require_once "connector.php";

$dc = new DropboxConnector();
echo $dc->getFile("path/to/file");
?>
