# Dropbox Uploader

Dropbox Uploader is a **BASH** script which can be used to upload, download, delete, list files (and more!) from **Dropbox**, an online file sharing, synchronization and backup service.

It's written in BASH scripting language and only needs **cURL**.

You can take a look to the [GitHub project page](https://github.com/andreafabrizi/Dropbox-Uploader).

**Why use this script?**

* **Portable:** It's written in BASH scripting and only needs `cURL` (curl is a tool to transfer data from or to a server, available for all operating systems and installed by default in many linux distributions).
* **Secure:** It's not required to provide your username/password to this script, because it uses the official Dropbox API v2 for the authentication process.

Please refer to the [Wiki](https://github.com/andreafabrizi/Dropbox-Uploader/wiki) for tips and additional information about this project. The Wiki is also the place where you can share your scripts and examples related to Dropbox Uploader.

## Features

* Cross platform
* Support for the official Dropbox API v2
* No password required or stored
* Simple step-by-step configuration wizard
* Simple and chunked file upload
* File and recursive directory download
* File and recursive directory upload
* Shell wildcard expansion (only for upload)
* Delete/Move/Rename/Copy/List/Share files
* Create share link
* Monitor for changes

## Getting started

First, clone the repository using git (recommended):

```bash
git clone https://github.com/andreafabrizi/Dropbox-Uploader.git
```

or download the script manually using this command:

```bash
curl "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/andreafabrizi/Dropbox-Uploader/master/dropbox_uploader.sh" -o dropbox_uploader.sh
```

Then give the execution permission to the script and run it:

```bash
 $chmod +x dropbox_uploader.sh
 $./dropbox_uploader.sh
```

The first time you run `dropbox_uploader`, you'll be guided through a wizard in order to configure access to your Dropbox. This configuration will be stored in `~/.dropbox_uploader`.

## Usage

The syntax is quite simple:

```
./dropbox_uploader.sh [PARAMETERS] COMMAND...

[%%]: Optional param
<%%>: Required param
```

**Available commands:**

* **upload** &lt;LOCAL_FILE/DIR ...&gt; &lt;REMOTE_FILE/DIR&gt;  
Upload a local file or directory to a remote Dropbox folder.  
If the file is bigger than 150Mb the file is uploaded using small chunks (default 50Mb); 
in this case a . (dot) is printed for every chunk successfully uploaded and a * (star) if an error 
occurs (the upload is retried for a maximum of three times).
Only if the file is smaller than 150Mb, the standard upload API is used, and if the -p option is specified
the default curl progress bar is displayed during the upload process.  
The local file/dir parameter supports wildcards expansion.

* **download** &lt;REMOTE_FILE/DIR&gt; [LOCAL_FILE/DIR]  
Download file or directory from Dropbox to a local folder

* **delete** &lt;REMOTE_FILE/DIR&gt;  
Remove a remote file or directory from Dropbox

* **move** &lt;REMOTE_FILE/DIR&gt; &lt;REMOTE_FILE/DIR&gt;

* **copy** &lt;REMOTE_FILE/DIR&gt; &lt;REMOTE_FILE/DIR&gt;  
Copy a remote file or directory

* **mkdir** &lt;REMOTE_DIR&gt;  
Create a remote directory on Dropbox

* **list** [REMOTE_DIR]  
List the contents of the remote Dropbox folder

* **monitor** [REMOTE_DIR] [TIMEOUT]  
Monitor the remote Dropbox folder for changes. If timeout is specified, at the first change event the function will return.

* **share** &lt;REMOTE_FILE&gt;  
Get a public share link for the specified file or directory

* **saveurl** &lt;URL&gt; &lt;REMOTE_DIR&gt;  
Download a file from an URL to a Dropbox folder directly (the file is NOT downloaded locally)

* **search** &lt;QUERY&gt;
Search for a specific pattern on Dropbox and returns the list of matching files or directories

* **info**  
Print some info about your Dropbox account

* **space**
Print some info about the space usage on your Dropbox account

* **unlink**  
Unlink the script from your Dropbox account

**Optional parameters:**  
* **-f &lt;FILENAME&gt;**  
Load the configuration file from a specific file

* **-s**

* **-d**  
Enable DEBUG mode

* **-q**  
Quiet mode. Don't show progress meter or messages

* **-h**

* **-p**

* **-k**  
Doesn't check for SSL certificates (insecure)

* **-x &lt;FILENAME&gt;**

-x filename -x directoryname.

**Examples:**
```bash
    ./dropbox_uploader.sh upload /etc/passwd /myfiles/passwd.old
    ./dropbox_uploader.sh upload *.zip /
    ./dropbox_uploader.sh -x .git upload ./project /
    ./dropbox_uploader.sh download /backup.zip
    ./dropbox_uploader.sh delete /backup.zip
    ./dropbox_uploader.sh mkdir /myDir/
    ./dropbox_uploader.sh upload "My File.txt" "My File 2.txt"
    ./dropbox_uploader.sh share "My File.txt"
    ./dropbox_uploader.sh list
```

## Tested Environments

* GNU Linux
* FreeBSD 8.3/10.0
* MacOSX
* Windows/Cygwin
* Raspberry Pi
* QNAP
* iOS
* OpenWRT
* Chrome OS
* OpenBSD
* Termux

If you have successfully tested this script on others systems or platforms please let me know!

## Running as cron job
Dropbox Uploader relies on a different configuration file for each system user. The default configuration file location is `$HOME/.dropbox_uploader`. This means that if you setup the script with your user and then you try to run a cron job as root, it won't work.
So, when running this script using cron, please keep in mind the following:
* Remember to setup the script with the user used to run the cron job
* Always specify the full script path when running it (e.g.  /path/to/dropbox_uploader.sh)
* Use always the -f option to specify the full configuration file path, because sometimes in the cron environment the home folder path is not detected correctly (e.g. -f /home/youruser/.dropbox_uploader)
* My advice is, for security reasons, to not share the same configuration file with different users

## How to setup a proxy

To use a proxy server, just set the **https_proxy** environment variable:

**Linux:**
```bash
    export HTTP_PROXY_USER=XXXX
    export HTTP_PROXY_PASSWORD=YYYY
    export https_proxy=http://192.168.0.1:8080
```

**BSD:**
```bash
    setenv HTTP_PROXY_USER XXXX
    setenv HTTP_PROXY_PASSWORD YYYY
    setenv https_proxy http://192.168.0.1:8080
```
   
## BASH and Curl installation

**Debian & Ubuntu Linux:**
```bash
    sudo apt-get install bash (Probably BASH is already installed on your system)
    sudo apt-get install curl
```

**BSD:**
```bash
    cd /usr/ports/shells/bash && make install clean
    cd /usr/ports/ftp/curl && make install clean
```

**Cygwin:**  
You need to install these packages:  
* curl
* ca-certificates
* dos2unix

Before running the script, you need to convert it using the dos2unix command.

**Build cURL from source:**
* Download the source tarball from http://curl.haxx.se/download.html
* Follow the INSTALL instructions

## DropShell

DropShell is an interactive DropBox shell, based on DropBox Uploader:

```bash
DropShell v0.2

```

## Running as Docker Container
First build the docker image:
```bash
docker build https://github.com/sircuri/Dropbox-Uploader.git -f Dockerfile -t <TAG>
```
or for RaspBerry:
```bash
docker build https://github.com/sircuri/Dropbox-Uploader.git -f Dockerfile.pi -t <TAG>
```
then, you can run it as following:
```bash
docker run -i --rm --user=$(id -u):$(id -g) -v <LOCAL_CONFIG_PATH>:/config -v <YOUR_DATA_DIR_MOUNT>:/workdir <TAG> <Arguments> 
```
This will store the auth token information in the given local directory in `<LOCAL_CONFIG_PATH>`. To ensure access to your mounted directories it can be important to pass a UID and GID to the docker deamon (as stated in the example by the --user argument)

Using the script with docker makes it also possible to run the script even on windows machines.

To use a proxy, just set the mentioned environment variables via the docker `-e` parameter.

## Upgrading from old dropbox API
Starting September 30th, 2021, Dropbox is updating their API (OAuth scopes, PKCE, refresh tokens, and short-lived access tokens)
dropbox_uploader.sh configurations made with the old API will not longer work after that date.
Reconfigure dropbox_uploader.sh:
*  Go to https://www.dropbox.com/account/connected_apps, expand your configuration, and click the button 'Disconnect'
*  Rename or delete your configuration file .dropbox_uploader
