The ShareFile class makes it easy to upload, download, and manage files, folders, and share links within ShareFile.

Syntax

class cloudstorage.ShareFile

Remarks

The ShareFile class provides a simple interface for working with ShareFile. Capabilities include uploading and downloading files, strong encryption support, creating folders, moving and copying items, creating request and send links, and more.

Authentication

The class has the following default:

Application Profile

This profile encompasses the most basic grant types that OAuth supports. When this profile is set, all the requests and response handling is done by the class. Depending on the grant type, this may involve launching a browser so a user can login to authenticate with a authorization server. It may also involve starting an embedded web server to receive a response from a redirect.

To start the authentication and authorization process, the authorize method should be called. If the authorization and authentication was successful, then the o_auth_access_token property will be populated. Additionally, if a refresh token was provided the o_auth_refresh_token property will be populated as well. These values of the fields are for informational purposes. The class will also cache these tokens along with when the o_auth_access_token will be expired. When a method that makes requests to the service provider is called or the authorize method is called the class will automatically check to see if the access token is expired. If it is, it will then automatically try to get a new o_auth_access_token. If the authorize method was not used and user interaction would be required, the class will throw an error which can be caught. When user interaction is needed depends on what grant type is set in the o_auth_grant_type property. To force the component to only check the access token when the authorize method is called, the OAuthAutomaticRefresh configuration setting can be set to false.

A brief description of the supported values for the o_auth_grant_type property are below. For more information, see the service documentation.

Authorization Code

When using the Authorization Code grant type, the class will use an authorization code to get an access token. For this o_auth_grant_type the class expects a o_auth_client_id, o_auth_client_secret, o_auth_server_auth_url, and o_auth_server_token_url to be set. When the authorize method is called, the component will start the embedded web server and launch the browser so the user can authorize the application. Once the user authorizes, the service provider will redirect them to the embedded web server and the class will parse the authorization code, setting the o_auth_authorization_code property, from the redirect. Immediately, the class will make a request to the token server to exchange the authorization code for an access token. The token server will return an access token and possibly a refresh token. If the o_auth_refresh_token property is set, or a refresh token is cached, then the class will not launch the browser and use the refresh token in its request to the token server instead of an authorization code.

Implicit

Note: This grant type is considered insecure and should only be used when necessary.

When using the Implicit grant type, the class will request the authorization server to get an access token. For this o_auth_grant_type the class expects a o_auth_client_id, o_auth_client_secret, and o_auth_server_auth_url to be set. When the authorize method is called, the component will start the embedded web server and launch the browser so the user can authorize the application. Once the user authorizes, the service provider will redirect them to the embedded web server and the class will parse the access token from the redirect.

A disadvantage of the grant type is that can not use a refresh token to silently get a new access token. Most service providers offer a way to silently get a new access token. See the service documentation for specifics. This means the class will not be able to automatically get a fresh token once it expires.

Password

Note: This grant type is considered insecure and should only be used when necessary.

When using the Resource Owner Password Credentials grant type, the class will authenticate as the resource owner. This allows for the class to avoid user interaction. This grant type often has specific limitations put on it by the service provider. See the service documentation for more details.

For this o_auth_grant_type the class requires OAuthPasswordGrantUsername, o_auth_client_secret, and o_auth_server_token_url to be set. The o_auth_client_secret should be set to the password of the account instead of a typical secret. In some cases, the o_auth_client_id also needs to be set. When the authorize method is called, the component will make a request to the token server for an access token using the username and password. The token server will return an access token if the authentication was successful. When this access token is expired, the component will automatically (see above for detailed description) make a new request to get a fresh one.

Web Profile

External OAuth Support

Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN_VALUE

Assign this value to the authorization property before attempting any operations. Setting the authorization property will cause the class to ignore the values set in the o_auth property.

Consult the documentation for the service for more information about supported scope values and more details on OAuth authentication.

Referencing and Creating Items, Links, Permissions, and Users

ShareFile typically uses specified ids to reference its objects. When an object is created, through methods such as create_client or create_folder or uploaded with the upload_file method; the class will return with the objects ShareFile Id in the form of a string. In certain cases, a path (/parentFolder/ChildFolder) can be used to reference an item.

When a link is created using methods like create_and_email_link , create_and_email_request_link, create_link, or create_request_link then their URL is returned rather than their ShareFile id. To get the newly created id, the class also clears and populates the links properties with the new link. When creating a link, you can use the create_link_options property to set certain options for the link.

When a permission is created using the create_permission method, the class will not return anything as ShareFile uses a combination of a UserId and the ItemId of a folder to reference permissions. When creating a permission, you can use the create_permission_options property to set certain options for the permission.

Listing and Getting Items, Links, Permissions, and Users

When listing out the Links and Users currently available to the authenticated user you will use the corresponding list_links and list_users methods. Both of these methods take no parameters and will populates their corresponding properties. For links the properties is the links properties and for users it is the users properties.

When listing the Items within a Folder or Permissions, the corresponding methods will take a folders ItemId. list_items will list the items in the folder to the items properties. The method will not recursively list out items found in child folders. The list_permissions method will list all the permissions for the specified folder to the permissions properties.

The class can also list out the items associated with a specified link. The list_link_items method will take a LinkId and populate items properties.

The class also offers the ability to get the specific information about a certain item, link, permission, or user. get_item_info, get_link_info and get_user_info each take a corresponding id. For permissions, get_permission_info will take a FolderId and UserId rather than a specific id. Once called, they each clear and populate the corresponding properties.

For all list* and get* methods, there is a corresponding event that will fire for each item in the list. The on_item_list event will fire when the list_items, list_link_items, or get_item_info methods are called; the on_link_list event will fire when the list_links or get_link_info methods are called; the on_permission_list event will fire when the list_permissions or get_permission_info methods are called; and the on_user_list event will fire when the list_users or get_user_info methods are called.

Downloading Files

The download_file method downloads file or folder items.

If local_file is set, the file will be saved to the specified location; otherwise, the file data will be held by item_data.

To download and decrypt an encrypted file, set encryption_algorithm and encryption_password before calling this method.

Download Notes

Simple Download

A simple download is consistent with setting the local_file to the destination of the file when it is downloaded and then calling the method with the item's id. For example: shareFile.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip"; shareFile.DownloadFile(shareFile.Items[0].Id);

Uploading Files

The upload_file method uploads new file items.

If local_file is set the file will be uploaded from the specified path. If local_file is not set the data in item_data will be used.

To encrypt the file before uploading it, set encryption_algorithm and encryption_password.

Upload Notes

ShareFile offers two ways to upload a file. For smaller files a simple upload option is provided to upload data in one request. This is the default option. For larger files, uploads can be fragmented into multiple pieces, allowing resuming of uploads that may be interrupted.

Simple

By default the class uses the simple upload mechanism. ShareFile.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip"; ShareFile.UploadFile("/MyFile.zip");

Resumable

To enable resumable uploads set use_resumable_upload to True. This is recommended for large files. The class will automatically fragment the specified file into smaller pieces and upload each individually.

When use_resumable_upload is set to True and upload_file is called, a resumable upload session is started by the class. Once called and the class fragments the file, the resume_url property is populated. This URL needs to be set so that the class can resume the upload if the upload is interrupted.

During a resumable upload, the on_fragment_complete event fires after each fragment is uploaded to indicate overall progress. The class also updates start_byte as necessary to indicate the current offset in the file.

If the upload is interrupted for any reason, resuming it is easy. First, verify that resume_url and start_byte are populated (if the same instance of the class is used, they should already be populated, and no special action should be needed). Then call upload_file again to resume the upload at the specified start_byte offset.

Note that if the upload is not resumed after some time the upload session will expire. shareFile.UseResumableUpload = true; shareFile.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip"; shareFile.UploadFile("MyFile.zip"); // The transfer is interrupted and UploadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download. // Using the same instance StartByte and ResumeURL are already populated from the previous // upload attempt. shareFile.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");

Additional Functionality

The ShareFile class offers advanced functionality beyond simple uploads and downloads. For instance:

• Encrypt and decrypt files using the encryption_algorithm and encryption_password properties.
• Basic file and folder manipulation and organization using methods such as copy_item and move_item.
• And more!

Upload Notes

ShareFile offers two ways to upload a file. For smaller files a simple upload option is provided to upload data in one request. This is the default option. For larger files, uploads can be fragmented into multiple pieces, allowing resuming of uploads that may be interrupted.

Simple

By default the class uses the simple upload mechanism. ShareFile.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip"; ShareFile.UploadFile("/MyFile.zip");

Resumable

To enable resumable uploads set use_resumable_upload to True. This is recommended for large files. The class will automatically fragment the specified file into smaller pieces and upload each individually.

When use_resumable_upload is set to True and upload_file is called, a resumable upload session is started by the class. Once called and the class fragments the file, the resume_url property is populated. This URL needs to be set so that the class can resume the upload if the upload is interrupted.

During a resumable upload, the on_fragment_complete event fires after each fragment is uploaded to indicate overall progress. The class also updates start_byte as necessary to indicate the current offset in the file.

If the upload is interrupted for any reason, resuming it is easy. First, verify that resume_url and start_byte are populated (if the same instance of the class is used, they should already be populated, and no special action should be needed). Then call upload_file again to resume the upload at the specified start_byte offset.

Note that if the upload is not resumed after some time the upload session will expire. shareFile.UseResumableUpload = true; shareFile.LocalFile = "../MyFile.zip"; shareFile.UploadFile("MyFile.zip"); // The transfer is interrupted and UploadFile() above fails. Later, resume the download. // Using the same instance StartByte and ResumeURL are already populated from the previous // upload attempt. shareFile.UploadFile("MyFile.zip");

def on_link_list(event_hook: Callable[[ShareFileLinkListEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

This event fires once for each link returned when list_links or get_link_info is called. The link cannot be modified from this event. This event will not show the items related to the specific link when calling list_link_items. Those will be listed using the on_item_list event.

on_log Event

Fired once for each log message.

Syntax

class ShareFileLogEventParams(object):
  @property
  def log_level() -> int: ...

  @property
  def message() -> str: ...

  @property
  def log_type() -> str: ...

# In class ShareFile:
@property
def on_log() -> Callable[[ShareFileLogEventParams], None]: ...
@on_log.setter
def on_log(event_hook: Callable[[ShareFileLogEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

This event is fired once for each log message generated by the class. The verbosity is controlled by the LogLevel setting.

LogLevel indicates the level of message. Possible values are as follows:

The value 1 (Info) logs basic information, including the URL, HTTP version, and status details.

The value 2 (Verbose) logs additional information about the request and response.

The value 3 (Debug) logs the headers and body for both the request and response, as well as additional debug information (if any).

Message is the log entry.

LogType identifies the type of log entry. Possible values are as follows:

• "Info"
• "RequestHeaders"
• "ResponseHeaders"
• "RequestBody"
• "ResponseBody"
• "ProxyRequest"
• "ProxyResponse"
• "FirewallRequest"
• "FirewallResponse"

on_permission_list Event

This event fires once for each permission returned when ListPermissions or GetPermissionInfo is called.

Syntax

class ShareFilePermissionListEventParams(object):
  @property
  def folder_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def user_id() -> str: ...

  @property

@property
def on_permission_list() -> Callable[[ShareFilePermissionListEventParams], None]: ...
@on_permission_list.setter
def on_permission_list(event_hook: Callable[[ShareFilePermissionListEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

This event fires once for each permission returned when list_permissions or get_permission_info is called. The permissions cannot be modified from this event. The FolderId represents the item Id for the specific folder the permission is for. The UserId represents the Id for the user the permission is for.

on_progress Event

Fires during an upload or download to indicate transfer progress.

Syntax

class ShareFileProgressEventParams(object):
  @property
  def direction() -> int: ...

  @property
  def bytes_transferred() -> int: ...

  @property
  def total_bytes() -> int: ...

  @property
  def percent_done() -> int: ...

# In class ShareFile:
@property
def on_progress() -> Callable[[ShareFileProgressEventParams], None]: ...
@on_progress.setter
def on_progress(event_hook: Callable[[ShareFileProgressEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

This event fires during an upload or download to indicate the progress of the transfer of the entire request. By default, this event will fire each time PercentDone increases by one percent; the ProgressStep configuration setting can be used to alter this behavior.

Direction indicates whether the transfer is an upload (0) or a download (1).

BytesTransferred reflects the number of bytes that have been transferred so far, or 0 if the transfer is starting (however, see note below).

TotalBytes reflects the total number of bytes that are to be transferred, or -1 if the total is unknown. This amount includes the size of everything in the request like HTTP headers.

PercentDone reflects the overall progress of the transfer, or -1 if the progress cannot be calculated.

Note: By default, the class tracks transfer progress absolutely. If a transfer is interrupted and later resumed, the values reported by this event upon and after resumption will account for the data that was transferred before the interruption.

For example, if 10MB of data was successfully transferred before the interruption, then this event will fire with a BytesTransferred value of 10485760 (10MB) when the transfer is first resumed, and then continue to fire with successively greater values as usual.

This behavior can be changed by disabling the ProgressAbsolute configuration setting, in which case the class will treat resumed transfers as "new" transfers. In this case, the BytesTransferred parameter will always be 0 the first time this event fires, regardless of whether the transfer is new or being resumed.

on_ssl_server_authentication Event

Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.

Syntax

class ShareFileSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams(object):
  @property
  def cert_encoded() -> bytes: ...

  @property
  def cert_subject() -> str: ...

  @property
  def cert_issuer() -> str: ...

  @property
  def status() -> str: ...

  @property
  def accept() -> bool: ...
  @accept.setter
  def accept(value) -> None: ...

# In class ShareFile:
@property
def on_ssl_server_authentication() -> Callable[[ShareFileSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams], None]: ...
@on_ssl_server_authentication.setter
def on_ssl_server_authentication(event_hook: Callable[[ShareFileSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.

When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string OK). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.

on_ssl_status Event

Fired when secure connection progress messages are available.

Syntax

class ShareFileSSLStatusEventParams(object):
  @property
  def message() -> str: ...

# In class ShareFile:
@property
def on_ssl_status() -> Callable[[ShareFileSSLStatusEventParams], None]: ...
@on_ssl_status.setter
def on_ssl_status(event_hook: Callable[[ShareFileSSLStatusEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. This event tracks the progress of the connection.

on_start_transfer Event

This event fires when a document starts transferring (after the headers).

Syntax

class ShareFileStartTransferEventParams(object):
  @property
  def direction() -> int: ...

# In class ShareFile:
@property
def on_start_transfer() -> Callable[[ShareFileStartTransferEventParams], None]: ...
@on_start_transfer.setter
def on_start_transfer(event_hook: Callable[[ShareFileStartTransferEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

The on_start_transfer event is fired when the document text starts transferring from the server to the local host.

The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.

on_transfer Event

Fired while a document transfers (delivers document).

Syntax

class ShareFileTransferEventParams(object):
  @property
  def direction() -> int: ...

  @property
  def bytes_transferred() -> int: ...

  @property
  def percent_done() -> int: ...

  @property
  def text() -> bytes: ...

# In class ShareFile:
@property
def on_transfer() -> Callable[[ShareFileTransferEventParams], None]: ...
@on_transfer.setter
def on_transfer(event_hook: Callable[[ShareFileTransferEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

The Text parameter contains the portion of the document text being received. It is empty if data are being posted to the server.

The BytesTransferred parameter contains the number of bytes transferred in this Direction since the beginning of the document text (excluding HTTP response headers).

The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.

The PercentDone parameter shows the progress of the transfer in the corresponding direction. If PercentDone can not be calculated the value will be -1.

Note: Events are not re-entrant. Performing time-consuming operations within this event will prevent it from firing again in a timely manner and may affect overall performance.

on_user_list Event

This event fires once for each user returned when ListUsers or GetUserInfo is called.

Syntax

class ShareFileUserListEventParams(object):
  @property
  def id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def first_name() -> str: ...

  @property
  def last_name() -> str: ...

  @property
  def company() -> str: ...

  @property
  def email() -> str: ...

  @property
  def creation_date() -> str: ...

# In class ShareFile:
@property
def on_user_list() -> Callable[[ShareFileUserListEventParams], None]: ...
@on_user_list.setter
def on_user_list(event_hook: Callable[[ShareFileUserListEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

This event fires once for each user returned when list_users or get_user_info is called. The users cannot be modified from this event. If the user does not have a specified company that parameter will be left as an empty string ("").
