Question: How to use Dropbox on managed Linux Clients?

The Dropbox Linux CLI dbcli.py was created to accommodate for the lack of an official Linux CLI for Dropbox. This Python program allows you to query the daemon in a similar manner to the GUI client.

The available commands can be obtained by running dbcli.py help:

Usage: dbcli.py <command> [options] ... <command> [options] Available commands:

status - Get overall status for the daemon.
copypublic <file> - Copies the url to the clipboard (? I guess) install <x86/x86_64> - Tries to download the daemon and install it in your home directory. browse <folder> - Browse the specified folder in your browser. copygallery - Copies the gallery url to the clipboard. share <file> - Open the browser and shows share-information. file <file> - Get information about a file/folder. folder <folder> - Get information about a file/folder. help - Gives this. revisions <file> - Opens the revisions page in your browser for the specified file.

Usage Example

$ ./dbcli.py status 
up to date 
$ ./dbcli.py folder ~/Dropbox/Work 
Folder status: up to date 
Folder is tagged as: shared
Available options for the folder:
 browse - Browse this folder via the web interface
