Dropbox File Picker.py

# IMPORTANT SETUP INSTRUCTIONS:
# 
# 1. Go to http://www.dropbox.com/developers/apps (log in if necessary)
# 2. Select "Create App"
# 3. Select the following settings:
#    * "Dropbox API app"
#    * "Files and datastores"
#    * "(No) My app needs access to files already on Dropbox"
#    * "All file types"
#    * (Choose any app name)
# 4. On the newly-created app's summary page, click the "Generate"
#    button under "Generated access token"
# 5. Copy the generated token (a long string of gibberish) and
#    paste it below (replace YOUR_TOKEN_HERE).
# 6. (optional) Open the "wrench" (actions) menu in Pythonista and add
#    this script, so you can run it from everywhere.

# Notes:
# All selected files are downloaded into the root folder of the Pythonista
# script library. If a file with the same name already exists, a numeric
# suffix is appended automatically.

Awesome, thanks!

Works great, thanks !

DropboxView.width and DropboxView.height too small in current beta.

Hi, I'm trying to get it to run on iPad Air, iOS v9 and latest beta and the "popup" I get is so tiny there's no way to pick any file. Any way to fix?

Great!!! Thanks!!!!

Brilliant! Now is coming Pythonista 3! Wish there is a python 3 version

Hi everyone! I'm a newbie here and this app. I think this file only works for Pythonista and not Pythonista 3. I added the following lines of code to make it work on Pythonista 3

import urllib.request, urllib.parse, urllib.error

and the following functions that weren't added or converted with 2to3

def cmp(a, b):
    return (a > b) - (a < b)

def cmp_to_key(mycmp):
        class K:
            def __init__(self, obj, *args):
                self.obj = obj
            def __lt__(self, other):
                return mycmp(self.obj, other.obj) < 0
            def __gt__(self, other):
                return mycmp(self.obj, other.obj) > 0
            def __eq__(self, other):
                return mycmp(self.obj, other.obj) == 0
            def __le__(self, other):
                return mycmp(self.obj, other.obj) <= 0
            def __ge__(self, other):
                return mycmp(self.obj, other.obj) >= 0
            def __ne__(self, other):
                return mycmp(self.obj, other.obj) != 0
        return K

and

making this substitution

items.sort(key=cmp_to_key(c))

I've updated this script for Pythonista 3 and Python 3:

https://gist.github.com/c5d5de505fa20d93702eeead1fbd0be1

Try dropboxImport.py if your running Pythonista3 ( See link above ) on your iPhone / iPad. It solved the Pythonista3 external file transfer problem on my iPhone 7. DropBox turned out to be a great middle man for the job. I used iFiles 2 to migrate dropboxImport.py over to the iPhone 7. From there I had to import it to a Notes file. After that I was able to copy and paste it into a Pythonista3 script file. The script ran flawlessly. It works stellar after you get the DropBox App Token set up properly. Now that I can call dropboxImport.py within Pythonista3, all I need is DropBox to import Python scripts! Fantastic and Thanks!
