This is a minimal PHP implementation of the [Dropbox API v2](https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/overview). It contains only the methods needed for [our flysystem-dropbox adapter](https://github.com/spatie/flysystem-dropbox). We are open however to PRs that add extra methods to the client.

Here are a few examples on how you can use the package:

```
$client = new Spatie\Dropbox\Client($authorizationToken);

//create a folder
$client->createFolder($path);

//list a folder
$client->listFolder($path);

//get a temporary link
$client->getTemporaryLink($path);
```

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require spatie/dropbox-api
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

The first thing you need to do is get an authorization token at Dropbox. Unlike [other companies](https://google.com) Dropbox has made this very easy. You can just generate a token in the [App Console](https://www.dropbox.com/developers/apps) for any Dropbox API app. You'll find more info at [the Dropbox Developer Blog](https://blogs.dropbox.com/developers/2014/05/generate-an-access-token-for-your-own-account/).

With an authorization token you can instantiate a `Spatie\Dropbox\Client`.

```
$client = new Spatie\Dropbox\Client($authorizationToken);
```

Look in [the source code of `Spatie\Dropbox\Client`](https://github.com/spatie/dropbox-api/blob/master/src/Client.php) to discover the methods you can use.

If you do not find your favorite method, you can directly use the `contentEndpointRequest` and `rpcEndpointRequest` functions.

```
public function contentEndpointRequest(string $endpoint, array $arguments, $body): ResponseInterface

public function rpcEndpointRequest(string $endpoint, array $parameters): array
```

Here's an example:

```
$client->rpcEndpointRequest('search', ['path' => '', 'query' => 'bat cave']);
```
