Installation

Automatic installation with pip:

$ pip install pyncclient

Manual installation of development version with git:

.. code-block:: bash

$ pip install requests
$ git clone https://github.com/pragmaticindustries/pyncclient.git
$ cd pyncclient
$ python setup.py install

Usage

Example for uploading a file then sharing with link:

.. code-block:: python

import nextcloud_client

nc = nextcloud_client.Client('http://domain.tld/nextcloud')

nc.login('user', 'password')

nc.mkdir('testdir')

nc.put_file('testdir/remotefile.txt', 'localfile.txt')

link_info = nc.share_file_with_link('testdir/remotefile.txt')

print("Here is your link: " + link_info.get_link())

Example for uploading a file to a public shared folder:

.. code-block:: python

import nextcloud_client

public_link = 'http://domain.tld/nextcloud/A1B2C3D4'

nc = nextcloud_client.Client.from_public_link(public_link)
nc.drop_file('myfile.zip')

Example for downloading a file from a public shared folder with password:

.. code-block:: python

import nextcloud_client

public_link = 'http://domain.tld/nextcloud/A1B2C3D4'
folder_password = 'secret'

nc = nextcloud_client.Client.from_public_link(public_link, password=folder_password)
nc.get_file('/sharedfile.zip', 'download/destination/sharedfile.zip')

Running the unit tests

To run the unit tests, create a config file called "nextcloud_client/test/config.py". There is a config file example called "nextcloud_client/test/config.py.sample". All the information required is in that file. It should point to a running nextCloud instance to test against.

You might also need to install the unittest-data-provider package:

.. code-block:: bash

$ pip install unittest-data-provider

Then run the script "runtests.sh":

.. code-block:: bash

$ ./runtests.sh

Building the documentation

To build the documentation, you will need to install Sphinx and docutil. Then run the following commands:

.. code-block:: bash

$ sphinx-apidoc -e -f -o docs/source nextcloud_client/ nextcloud_client/test
$ cd docs
$ make html

You can then find the documentation inside of "doc/build/html".
