Dropbox API v2 PHP upload file issue


I am trying to upload a file using Dropbox API v2. Unfortunately there is no PHP library for Dropbox API v2.

https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-upload

This is my code:

$token = 'sometoken'; // oauth token

$headers = array("Authorization: Bearer ". $token,
    'Dropbox-API-Arg: {"path": "/test.txt","mode": "add","autorename": true,"mute":false}',
    "Content-Type: application/octet-stream");


$url = 'https://content.dropboxapi.com/2/files/upload';

$ch = curl_init($url);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);

$path = './google/file.json';
$fp = fopen($path, 'rb');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_INFILE, $fp);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_INFILESIZE, filesize($path));

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);


//curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post_data);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1);


$response = curl_exec($ch);
$http_code = curl_getinfo($ch, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
echo($response.'<br/>');
echo($http_code.'<br/>');

curl_close($ch);
echo $response;

It creates test.txt but 0 bytes. When I check the code it reads 0 byte.

And this is output of code execution:

Solution

  • I found an answer.

    $api_url = 'https://content.dropboxapi.com/2/files/upload'; //dropbox api url
            $token = 'some value'; // oauth token
    
            $headers = array('Authorization: Bearer '. $token,
                'Content-Type: application/octet-stream',
                'Dropbox-API-Arg: '.
                json_encode(
                    array(
                        "path"=> '/'. basename($filename),
                        "mode" => "add",
                        "autorename" => true,
                        "mute" => false
                    )
                )
    
            );
    
            $ch = curl_init($api_url);
    
            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
    
            $path = $filename;
            $fp = fopen($path, 'rb');
            $filesize = filesize($path);
    
            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, fread($fp, $filesize));
            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
    //        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1); // debug
    
            $response = curl_exec($ch);
            $http_code = curl_getinfo($ch, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
            echo($response.'<br/>');
            echo($http_code.'<br/>');
    
            curl_close($ch);
