README

        
## What is this?

This is a script that will iterate though a TSV file and download each entry to your Dropbox account directly without downloading them onto your computer first.

## Requirements

- [Python 3](https://www.python.org/downloads/) (Tested on 3.6.4)

    - Should work with Python 2 (Not going to put a lot of effort into supporting it)

    - Currently non-ASCII characters will cause this script to fail in Python 2

- This should run on Windows, OSX, and Linux

## How to download

- Download the zip [here](https://github.com/Al-Azif/tsv-backup/archive/master.zip)

- Download with Git

    `git clone https://github.com/Al-Azif/tsv-backup.git`

## How to run

1. Generate an OAuth token for your Dropbox account and place it in `oauth.conf`

2. Install Dropbox's Python SDK `pip3 install dropbox`

3. Run `python3 main.py --file file.tsv` from the command line

4. Wait...

## Other Notes

- This isn't really ready for others to use

- The script will send the link to download then wait for the download to complete before starting the next

- There is a sleep timer in between finishing a file and downloading the next (10 Minutes) which can be modified with the `--sleep` arg

- Skips file if it already exists on Dropbox

- There is basically no error checking

## Why do you commit so many little changes, tweaks, etc?

I have no self control... it also lets people see the actual development. From barely working chicken scratch to actual code.
