Re: [Announce] DropN900 - the maemo 5 DropBox client
 

Works for me now, guess it was a Dropbox API issue.

Re: [Announce] DropN900 - the maemo 5 DropBox client
 

Hi,

thanks for all your efforts!

I have a problem installing dropN900. The application manager gives me the answer "conflict with python2.5-qt4-gl (4.7.4-maemo0)".

Any hints what I can do? Sorry if this is a noobish question. :)

I see missed files during sync.

I have a local directory that has multiple pictures. But after sync, some files don't show up in my DropBox.

Here is the log file. I'm not if these 403 errors are the cause of missed files.

11:00:18 -[CONFIG]: Found existing access token
11:00:19 ---[AUTH]: Account data received for XXXXXXX
11:00:43 ---[SYNC]: No synchronization downloads, all file up to date

11:04:50 [NETWORK ERROR]: 403 - Could not fetch metadata
11:04:50 [NETWORK ERROR]: >> {"error": "Missing signature."}

If I do sync again, it will start to upload those missed files. It's funny to see that the number of files need to be synced drops from 235 to 72, to 22, to 8, to 2, to 1. And then finally all files are synced.

So my guess is that something went wrong during the sync. But I think DropN900 should report those errors and show the user which files are not synced. Better yet, if it can re-try those failed syncs.

Thanks!

Hope this hasn't already been asked, but will dropn900 sync even when the app isn't open, if not is there an x-term command I can use for it to update.

Also in the change log I have noticed mentioning of a widget, is there a desktop widget for dropn900?

Ta!

Re: [Announce] DropN900 - the maemo 5 DropBox client
 

No sorry I have stopped implementing features to this app. Unfortunately Maemo5 is dead, so might be Meego. If I had any interest continuing this app it was because of meego. Not it has been abandoned and my work/private life schedules are too busy to do any more on this :)

I hope that everyone can appreciate what they got free and that I used hundreds of hours of my own summer holiday to make you all this app. It's not perfect, but it does some neat things with just a limited REST API from Dropbox.

No there is no headleass (no ui) mode, or auto scripts. And no desktop widget.

Re: [Announce] DropN900 - the maemo 5 DropBox client
 

I'm sorry to hear this as I was really hoping for an auto-sync feature, and I know others have other features they were hoping for as well.

Still as you say, you put quite a bit of time into this program all for free. I know I really appreciate the version I have. Thank you for all the work you put into bringing Dropbox to the Maemo platform.

That said, is there any chance you'll release the source somewhere? There may be someone else willing to pick up the project and continue where you left off....

Re: [Announce] DropN900 - the maemo 5 DropBox client
 

The program is written in python, so you already have the source on your device right now! (The source is on your n900 LIVE! :P )

Re: [Announce] DropN900 - the maemo 5 DropBox client
 

Code has been public from day one :) https://github.com/jonnenauha/DropN900 the link is also in the first post. Really easy to fork the repo in github, start developing, make features, make a pull request for me and ill pull your code. This is how I would like to do this app forward. If people are interested in getting involved please do, I can propably still do release updates still and help with fitting the code in if there are problems :) If you want to test your code, just copy your code to /opt/dropn900 to replace my files, and it will use my app key to do the requests! If you want to test with your own keys, just register with dropbox and follow where to put them from code.
