@Hemant-Mann do you have time to work on these ?

[Hemant-Mann]

Yes I am a little busy but if you could share the expected timeline for the release of v2 it would help to estimate the time required for the changes

[Hemant-Mann]

I think the only major task from the checklist is the Migration

[patrickjahns]

I think we could push a v1.0.1 with at least the naming change on the marketplace? so it gets less confusing with two dropbox options

[Hemant-Mann]

Yes good idea

[PVince81]

Added "Must work with PHP 5.6". We might want to do another release once this is in place and tested, without waiting for 10.0.4.

Hey @PVince81
I was looking into Dropbox Webhooks API https://www.dropbox.com/developers/reference/webhooks
But it says that

The payload of the notification request does not include the actual file changes. It only informs your app of which users have changes.

You will typically want to call /files/list_folder/continue to get the latest changes for each user in the notification, keeping track of the latest cursor for each user as you go.

And we have only ten seconds to respond to webhook requests

The solutions mentioned on the website are a) Use threads b) Async Queues
Any Ideas how we can achieve the same in owncloud

[PVince81]

PR for changelog to get a view of what has changed since 1.0.1: #38

we'll look into releasing the app as is

@Hemant-Mann would you have time to remove the flysystem adapter which you moved to core before we do so ? if not we'll leave the app as is, it's ok

[Hemant-Mann]

Hi @PVince81

to be honest it's been quite a time since I last worked on core so it might take some time to do that

[PVince81]

@Hemant-Mann yes, I understand. The Dropbox app isn't high on the list of "to release" so this leaves a bit of time. If you don't have time to do it it's also ok.

[PVince81]

• fix packaging: Avoid packaging vcs files for composer dependencies #40

[PVince81]

I've added "verify potential existing issues: #37" to confirm whether the lowercase issue and others are still happening. Tickets should be raised then.

[PVince81]

raised #42 to address the "flysystem cache adapter" tech debt items. we'll release without that for now

Using the tarball posted above and trying to install it in ownCloud 10.0.10

[PVince81]

@davitol the tarball had two issues:

• VCS files were included in signature but excluded later in tar
• tar was truncating long path names resulting in missing file names during signature check...

all fixed in commit 9fa04e2

please retest with RC2 https://cloud.owncloud.com/index.php/s/KTwSnsPUmccpQpQ

please retest with RC2 https://cloud.owncloud.com/index.php/s/KTwSnsPUmccpQpQ

@PVince81 Tarball is Qa-ready
