Dropbox API V2: PHP Authentication Process

Effective September 2021, Dropbox will be deprecating long-lived access tokens.

This GIST generally describes how to authenticate requests to Dropbox API v2, for anyone working on a server-side PHP Dropbox implementation.

It's important to understand three types of codes you'll encounter:

  1. Access Code - this is a one-time code that represents user-granted app access.
  2. Access Token - this is short-lived token that provides access to Dropbox API endpoints.
  3. Refresh Token - this is a long-lived token that allows you to fetch a fresh Access Token.

Note:

  • Fail2ban picks up the first date and syslong on Ubuntu 20.04 does not contain a year. Change syslog config to add year to timestamp. See my syslog gist for more info.
  • When using Docker you can change the log driver to syslog

Typical file paths:

Using Node streams to append audio files

Today I decided to clean up and organise files on windows computer at work. This process involved deleting files I no longer have use for and creating grouping the rest in folders. So I ended up with folders for audio, video, projects, ebooks, e.t.c.

One of the folders that I came across contained about 50 small mp3 files. Before deleting the files I had to play them just to make sure they didn't contain anything important. What do I know, turns out they clips of a DHH(the ROR creator) interview - please don't ask me how they got to my computer. He's quite an opinionated guy and I decided I wanted to keep the files. But 50 files? Wouldn't it be nice if I could glue them together into a single file? Well, being the hacker that I am I popped open my terminal and started writing a program.

I broke down the task to two main things.

  1. Read and sort the files according to their sequence
  2. Somehow combine the files and write them to a single file

The first thing turned out to be quite easy to do because th
