File system for pyFilesystem which uses the dropbox API.

A Note About Caching

This library has built in caching. There are times when you will want to disable caching. A user can change the file on the remote server and our code/cache will not be notified of the change. One example of where this is an issue is before you read/download a file from the remote side if you are using cached meta info to specify the download size.

Testing

Install required dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Run tests and generate coverage report:

python -m pytest

Run interactive test that will modify the Dropbox account:

python dropboxfs.py -k <api_key> -s <api_secret> -a <access_token>
