Hi all,
i am working on wrapper for dropbox and i need to select all files in a folder and download as zip without waiting for zip creating in background with JS SDK. fileDownloadZip wait for zip make but is not what i need
Any ideas?
The Dropbox JavaScript SDK doesn't offer a way to work around this unfortunately; the download result is only returned once the response is complete. I'll send this along as a feature request, but I can't promise if/when a way to do this would be implemented.
That being the case, you may want to look into streaming from the /2/files/download_zip endpoint itself, without using the SDK.
Thx Greg, can i use PHP sdk for this? send request to server php endpoint, process with php and return a stream?
We don't offer a PHP SDK, but you can certainly call the Dropbox API from PHP, and use the result as desired. You can either call the HTTPS endpoints directly from an HTTPS client in PHP, or use a third party library.
