Re: Need crash course in Dropbox library

2019-02-19 Thread pink via use-livecode

I still need to do some testing and fiddle with a few things, but here's what
I've got so far, authentication is handled in a different handler, the
access token is passed as a parameter:

command dropBoxUploader pAccessToken
   local tMyFolder = "/Downloads"
   local tMyFileShortFilename = "abc.mp4"
   local tMyFilePath = "/Downloads/abc.mp4"
   local tChunkSize = 157286400
   local tStep = 0
   local tBytesProcessed = 0
   local tOffset = 0
   local tDestPath = "/somefolder/abc.mp4"
   local tFileDescription, tBytesRemaining, tBytesThisRead, tResult,
tSession
   
   filter files(tMyFolder, "detailed") with tMyFileShortFilename & ",*" 
into tFileDescription 
   put item 2 of tFileDescription into tBytesRemaining 
   put tChunkSize into tBytesThisRead 
   open file tMyFilePath for binary read 
   repeat until tBytesRemaining = 0 
  read from file tMyFilePath for tBytesThisRead 
  put it into tData
  subtract length(tData) from tBytesRemaining 
  add 1 to tStep
  if tStep = 1 then
 dropboxUploadSessionStart pAccessToken, tData 
  else if tBytesRemaining = 0 then
 dropboxUploadSessionFinish pAccessToken, tSession, tOffset,
tDestPath, "add", true,  false, tData
  else
 dropboxUploadSessionAppend pAccessToken, tSession, tOffset, tData 
  end if
  put jsonToArray(the result) into tResult[tStep]
  if tResult[tStep]["error"] is not empty then
 exit repeat
  end if
  put tResult[1]["session_id"] into tSession
  add tBytesThisRead to tOffset
  put min(tChunkSize, tBytesRemaining) into tBytesThisRead 
   end repeat 
   close file tMyFilePath 
end dropBoxUploader

Re: Need crash course in Dropbox library

2019-02-18 Thread Phil Davis via use-livecode

I'm not sure how this would work in your context, but one way to break 
up a file into pieces is to use open / read / close like this:


   # assumes LC 9.0.2
   # tMyFolder = path of folder containing the file to upload
   # tMyFileShortFilename = 'short' filename of file to upload - no
   path, just the filename
   # tMyFilePath = full path of file to upload

   filter files(tMyFolder, "detailed") with tMyFileShortFilename & ",*"
   into tFileDescription
   put item 2 of tFileDescription into tBytesRemaining
   put 0 into tBytesProcessed
   put 157286400 into tChunkSize -- 150 MB
   put tChunkSize into tBytesThisRead
   open file tMyFilePath for binary read
   repeat until tBytesRemaining = 0
    read from file tMyFilePath for tBytesThisRead
    subtract length(it) from tBytesRemaining
    _processChunk it
    put min(tChunkSize, tBytesRemaining) into tBytesThisRead
   end repeat
   close file tMyFilePath

Your upload would be done in the '_processChunk' handler.

Hey pink
Yes, you are just going to put 150MB at a time into the pData parameter
and
ship it.
I have not uploaded any binary files, just encoded text files, so you may
have to fiddle with encoding to make sure you don't get into any trouble.
You should be able to open/read the files using
put url "binfile:/" into fileContents

under the documentation for dropboxUpload,  it states it shouldn't be

I've been looking through the stack, but cannot find the answers I am
looking for. SO I am still not clear how I should get my file into

pData

and pData is just a chunk of the data? How do I make that chunk out of
the
whole and where do I get pOffset from?


Matthias Rebbe via use-livecode wrote

Hey, pink, thanks for the clarification.
First of all, is there a reason why you are doing it this way instead

of

using dropboxUpload?  If you use dropboxUpload you can do it all in

one

shot.
Gerard's stack explains the process and how to use the various

commands

Doing it the way you are doing it, you would start with sessionStart

and

then you would repeatedly call sessionAppend
pOffset is the length of what you have already sent because there are

no

guarantees that dropbox will get your file stream in order, so if it
gets
them out of order and pData isn't the same length for each call to
append,
the only way dropbox knows where to put the data it just received is

if

you
tell it where to put it.
pData should be at most 150mb per call.

Re: Need crash course in Dropbox library

2019-02-15 Thread pink via use-livecode

Unfortunately, looking at the other library isn't making things clearer...

Let me get more specific, here are the main commands I'm trying to learn:

dropboxUploadSessionStart pAccessToken, pData
dropboxUploadSessionAppend pAccessToken, pSession, pOffset, pData
dropboxUploadSessionFinish pAccessToken, pSession, pOffset, pPath, pMode,
pAutorename, pMute, pData

I understand how to get the access token, and how to get the sessionID
but...

1. what do I put into pData? I assume pData is the file I am supposed to be
uploading, but how do I put it in there? do I just open file, then read from
file and then put it into pData?
2. do i just use the same value for pData in all commands?
3. Where do I get the pOffset value?
4. Do I control how much data is sent with each request? If so, how? If not,
how do I know how many append sessions to use before I send the finish?

Then I would suggest
Grab Gerard's LC dropbox v2 goodies that are at
https://github.com/macMikey/dropboxapi_v2
The LC dropbox library was "inspired by" Gerard's library.  The command
names are different, but I'm pretty sure it's one-to-one and I'm pretty
sure the syntax is identical.  Where it isn't (or where a return value
didn't correlate) I'm pretty sure I submitted PR's to LC's library to fix
theirs, and I'm pretty sure all the PR's have been integrated.
One thing that is different/better with LC's library is that LC's library
adds optional support for asynchronous calls if you have one of the
not-free LC versions.
Gerard's library also has a tester built in, which is helpful for debugging
purposes.  When you have the syntax right, switch the calls to the LC
library.
If you still need help check back here and we'll see what else you might
need.
