		$options = [] )

Constructor of dropbox plugin.

@inheritDocs

Member Function Documentation

◆ antivir_scan_file()

static repository::antivir_scan_file	(	$thefile,
		$filename,
		$deleteinfected )

staticinherited

Scan file, throws exception in case of infected file.

Please note that the scanning engine must be able to access the file, permissions of the file are not modified here!

Deprecated: since Moodle 3.0

Parameters

string	$thefile
string	$filename	name of the file
bool	$deleteinfected

◆ append_suffix()

static repository::append_suffix ( $filename )

staticinherited

Append a suffix to filename.

Parameters

string $filename

Return values

string

Deprecated: since 2.5

◆ build_source_field()

static repository::build_source_field ( $source )

staticinherited

Build draft file's source field.

file_restore_source_field_from_draft_file() XXX: This is a hack for file manager (MDL-28666) For newly created draft files we have to construct source filed in php serialized data format. File manager needs to know the original file information before copying to draft area, so we append these information in mdl_files.source field

Parameters

string $source

Return values

string serialised source field

◆ build_tree()

static repository::build_tree	(		$fileinfo,
			$search,
			$dynamicmode,
		&	$list )

staticinherited

Builds a tree of files This function is then called recursively.

Todo: take $search into account, and respect a threshold for dynamic loading

Parameters

file_info	$fileinfo	an object returned by file_browser\get_file_info()
string	$search	searched string
bool	$dynamicmode	no recursive call is done when in dynamic mode
array	$list	the array containing the files under the passed $fileinfo

Return values

int	the number of files found

◆ cache_file_by_reference()

repository_dropbox::cache_file_by_reference	(		$reference,
			$storedfile )

Cache file from external repository by reference.

repository::get_file_reference() repository::get_file() Invoked at MOODLE/repository/repository_ajax.php.

@inheritDocs

Reimplemented from repository.

◆ callback()

repository_dropbox::callback ( )

Request access token.

@inheritDocs

Reimplemented from repository.

◆ can_be_edited_by_user()

repository::can_be_edited_by_user ( )

finalinherited

Can the instance be edited by the current user?

The property $readonly must not be used within this method because it only controls if the options from self\get_instance_option_names() can be edited.

Return values

bool	true if the user can edit the instance.

Since: Moodle 2.5

◆ check_capability()

repository::check_capability ( )

finalinherited

Checks if user has a capability to view the current repository.

Return values

bool	true when the user can, otherwise throws an exception.

Exceptions

repository_exception when the user does not meet the requirements.

◆ check_login()

repository_dropbox::check_login ( )

Check if the dropbox is logged in via the oauth process.

@inheritDocs

Reimplemented from repository.

◆ contains_private_data()

repository::contains_private_data ( )

inherited

Is this repository accessing private data?

This function should return true for the repositories which access external private data from a user. This is the case for repositories such as Dropbox, Google Docs or Box.net which authenticate the user and then store the auth token.

Of course, many repositories store 'private data', but we only want to set contains_private_data() to repositories which are external to Moodle and shouldn't be accessed to by the users having the capability to 'login as' someone else. For instance, the repository 'Private files' is not considered as private because it's part of Moodle.

You should not set contains_private_data() to true on repositories which allow different types of instances as the levels other than 'user' are, by definition, not private. Also the user instances will be protected when they need to.

Return values

boolean True when the repository accesses private external data.

Since: Moodle 2.5

Reimplemented in repository_contentbank, repository_coursefiles, repository_equella, repository_filesystem, repository_flickr_public, repository_local, repository_merlot, repository_recent, repository_s3, repository_upload, repository_url, repository_user, repository_webdav, repository_wikimedia, and repository_youtube.

◆ copy_to_area()

repository::copy_to_area	(	$source,
		$filerecord,
		$maxbytes = -1,
		$areamaxbytes = FILE_AREA_MAX_BYTES_UNLIMITED )

inherited

This function is used to copy a moodle file to draft area.

It DOES NOT check if the user is allowed to access this file because the actual file can be located in the area where user does not have access to but there is an alias to this file in the area where user CAN access it. file_is_accessible should be called for alias location before calling this function.

Parameters

string	$source	The metainfo of file, it is base64 encoded php serialized data
stdClass \| array	$filerecord	contains itemid, filepath, filename and optionally other attributes of the new file
int	$maxbytes	maximum allowed size of file, -1 if unlimited. If size of file exceeds the limit, the file_exception is thrown.
int	$areamaxbytes	the maximum size of the area. A file_exception is thrown if the new file will reach the limit.

Return values

array The information about the created file

reference_file_selected

This function is called when a controlled link file is selected in a file picker and the form is saved. The expected behaviour for repositories supporting controlled links is to

copy the file to the moodle system account
put it in a folder that reflects the context it is being used
make sure the sharing permissions are correct (read-only with the link)
return a new reference string pointing to the newly copied file.

Parameters

string	$reference	this reference is generated by repository\get_file_reference()
context	$context	the target context for this new file.
string	$component	the target component for this new file.
string	$filearea	the target filearea for this new file.

◆ sync_external_file()

static repository::sync_external_file	(		$file,
			$resetsynchistory = false )

staticinherited

Function repository\sync_external_file() is deprecated.

Deprecated: since Moodle 2.6 MDL-42016 - please do not use this function any more.

See also: repository\sync_reference()

◆ sync_reference()

repository_dropbox::sync_reference ( stored_file $file )

Performs synchronisation of an external file if the previous one has expired.

This function must be implemented for external repositories supporting FILE_REFERENCE, it is called for existing aliases when their filesize, contenthash or timemodified are requested. It is not called for internal repositories (see repository::has_moodle_files()), references to internal files are updated immediately when source is modified.

Referenced files may optionally keep their content in Moodle filepool (for thumbnail generation or to be able to serve cached copy). In this case both contenthash and filesize need to be synchronized. Otherwise repositories should use contenthash of empty file and correct filesize in bytes.

Note that this function may be run for EACH file that needs to be synchronised at the moment. If anything is being downloaded or requested from external sources there should be a small timeout. The synchronisation is performed to update the size of the file and/or to update image and re-generated image preview. There is nothing fatal if syncronisation fails but it is fatal if syncronisation takes too long and hangs the script generating a page.

Note: If you wish to call $file->get_filesize(), $file->get_contenthash() or $file->get_timemodified() make sure that recursion does not happen.

Called from stored_file::sync_external_file()

@inheritDocs

Reimplemented from repository.

◆ unpack_reference()

repository_dropbox::unpack_reference ( $packed )

protected

◆ update_draftfile()

static repository::update_draftfile	(	$draftid,
		$filepath,
		$filename,
		$updatedata )

staticinherited

Updates a file in draft filearea.

This function can only update fields filepath, filename, author, license. If anything (except filepath) is updated, timemodified is set to current time. If filename or filepath is updated the file unconnects from it's origin and therefore all references to it will be converted to copies when filearea is saved.

Parameters

int	$draftid
string	$filepath	path to the directory containing the file, or full path in case of directory
string	$filename	name of the file, or '.' in case of directory
array	$updatedata	array of fields to change (only filename, filepath, license and/or author can be updated)

Exceptions

moodle_exception if for any reason file can not be updated (file does not exist, target already exists, etc.)

◆ uses_post_requests()
