非我

最近发现越来越多的app集成dropbox来读取和保存文件了。我重新考虑了一下我的备份blog数据库的策略。之前我是直接在服务器上运行一个dropbox客户端来进行备份数据库，这样其实相当的浪费服务器资源。当然直接运行一个dropbox是比较简单，只要把保存到dropbox的文件夹下面即可。

不过为了不浪费服务器资源，我看了一下dropbox的api文档，写了一个简单的脚本来上传文件到dropbox。

            return

        f = open(full_path)
        if not rename:
            filename = path.basename(full_path)
        else:
            filename = rename
        self.client.put_file(filename, f, overwrite)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    if len(sys.argv) != 2:
        print "./upload_dp.py <file>"
        sys.exit(1)

    dp = DPClient(APP_KEY, APP_SECRET)
    if not dp.token_from_file(TOKEN_FILE):
        print "url:", dp.build_authorize_url()
        print "please authorize in the browser. After you're done, press enter"
        raw_input()
        dp.token_from_dropbox()
        dp.save_token(TOKEN_FILE)
    dp.upload_file(sys.argv[1])

很简单的程序，就像我说的很简单的目的只是为了上传文件。
默认DPClient上传文件会覆盖同名文件，并且使用传入的文件名作为上传的文件名。更多的功能请参考Dropbox的开发者网站：https://www.dropbox.com/developers
