This is a Dropbox binding for Azure Functions / WebJobs. It relies on the Dropbox.Net sdk (see https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/ )

This supports binding to the DropboxClient object and binding to streams.

This extension is published on nuget as: https://www.myget.org/feed/azure-appservice/package/nuget/Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.DropBox

Set the Dropbox OAuth token in an appsetting. In the examples below, it uses the appsetting named 'cx1'. Here's how to get an Oauth token for your account: https://blogs.dropbox.com/developers/2014/05/generate-an-access-token-for-your-own-account/

See more examples in the Sample's project at https://github.com/Azure/azure-functions-dropbox-extension/blob/master/Samples/Program.cs

    public static async Task SimpleRead(
      [Dropbox("/Folder/File", Connection = "cx1")] string str
      )
    {     
       // Reads contents as string.
       // Could also bind to Byte[], TextReader, Stream and other types as [Blob]
    }

    public static async Task SimpleWrite(
      [Dropbox("/Folder/File", Connection = "cx1")] out string str
      )
    {     
       // Write  as string 
       // Could also bind to out byte[], TextWriter, Stream, and other types like [Blob]
    }

    public static async Task StreamCopy(
        [Blob("test/input.txt", FileAccess.Read)] Stream src,
        [Dropbox("/FuncTest7/w6.txt", Connection = "cx1", Access = FileAccess.Write)] Stream dest
        )
    {
        // Dropbox stream is chunking and supports large file copies. 
        await src.CopyToAsync(dest);
    }

This binding does not have triggers. You can subscribe to a Dropbox Webhook (see https://www.dropbox.com/developers/reference/webhooks ) via HTTP Trigger and then use these bindings in conjuction with that.

This does not work on Azure Functions v1. To consume from Azure Functions, you must load the extension (see https://github.com/Azure/azure-webjobs-sdk-script/wiki/Binding-Extensions-Management ) The binding type is "Dropbox". Note that dropbox paths start with a '/' whereas Blob paths do not. Elsewise, this behaves just like blob.
