Paper to Git ![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/maxking/paper-to-git.svg?branch=master)============This project aims to sync documents between [Dropbox Paper][0] and any local Gitrepository. Why? Because apart from all other features that Paper has, it isan excellent in-browser markdown editor.This is an effort to create and automate Paper->Github Pages workflow, where Ican create and publish my blog posts by writing them in dropbox paper andautomatically fetching it from there and publishing it in Github Pages._Current State_: This project is currently in its very initial stages andnothing is guaranteed to work. I will update this as the project moves forward.Install=======To install, try out the following commands:```bash$ virtualenv dropbox-sdk --python=python3$ source dropbox-sdk/bin/activate$ python setup.py develop```Usage=====Web Interface-------------Paper-to-Git comes with a neat little Web Frontend written in Flask. You can runthat by using:```bash$ paper-git serve```If this is your first time, you will have to authorize usage of your dropboxaccount. See more on that below.Commandline-----------You can run `paper-git --help` in the console to print out the help text.The first time you use `paper-git`, it will create a `var` directory in thecurrent working directory. This directory will hold the important files anddatabase related to `paper-git`.On the first run of any commnad, like `paper-git list` will run theauthorization workflow for you to allow `paper-git` access to your Dropboxaccount. Not that even if you allow, I cannot access anything in your account asthe authorization token is stored locally only on your machine.The flow looks something like this:```bash$ paper-git list1. Go to: https://www.dropbox.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=<client_id>&response_type=code2. Click "Allow" (you might have to log in first).3. Copy the authorization code.Enter the authorization code here: <authorization code>```This will store your authorization token in the user configuration file at`var/etc/paper-git.cfg`.If you want this configuration to persist from anywhere, just copy`var/etc/paper-git.cfg` to `/etc/paper-git.cfg`.After this, you can run `update command to pull the list of all the docs`:```$ paper-git update```Note that update command doesn't pull changes in the already exsting docs in thedatabase. To update an existing document in the database try:```$ paper-git update <doc-id>```You can list all the docs in the database using:```$ paper-git list --docs```or you can list all the folders using:```$ paper-git list --folder```You can also add a `Sync` object to a tie together a path in a git repo to aPaper Folder so that they can be synchronized automatically.```$ paper-git add --repo <path/to/git/repo/root/> --path <path/in/git/repo> --folder <paper-folder-name>```Note that the `<paper-folder-name>` in the above command iscase-insensitive. Once you replace all the variables and the above command runssuccessfully, you have added a new rule to sync the documents.After you have add a new rule, now you can publish your documents to theirrespective. `publish` command will copy the downloaded files to their newdestination along with some added metadata that most common static sitegenerators expect.While the addition of metadata can be turned off if needed, it is turned on bydefualt for now.```$ paper-git publish <doc-id>```Note that this will only work for changes that have already been pulled downusing the `update` command.You can play `paper-git` using an interactive shell by using the `shell`command:```bash$ paper-git shell```This will a start an interactive `ipython` shell with an initialized `config`object.```pythonIn [1]: configOut[1]: <paper_to_git.config.config.BaseConfig at 0x7f2ca4cd6cc0>In [2]: config.dbOut[2]: <paper_to_git.database.BaseDatabase at 0x7f2ca4cd64a8>```You can play with the models and interact with the database:```pythonIn [3]: from paper_to_git.models import PaperDocIn [4]: for doc in PaperDoc.select():...:     print(doc)...:1: Document <1>2: Document <2>3: Document <3>```You can also force sync of a Doc, which you have changed:```pythonIn [5]: doc = PaperDoc.get_by_paper_id('<paper_doc_id>')In [6]: doc.get_changes()Update revision for doc <Doc> from 54 to 69```License:========This project is licensed under MIT License.
