Stream APIs

Open piranna opened this issue 8 years ago • 8 comments

Add Node.js createReadStream() and createWriteStream() functions, using internally stream APIs to fetch and write files content to Dropbox servers.

Hi @piranna, can you please explain more about this?

The Node.js fs module createReadStream() and createWriteStreams() functions are missing from this module API, so I ask to include them and if possible, implement them in a stream fashion to don't need to fully download the files first.

@piranna ah, I need to first check if Dropbox module supports that or not.

filesGetTemporaryLink can be used to get an URL link that can be fetch using the range header in a pull stream-like fashion, and the UploadSession to upload it in several fragments.

@sallar please implement the createReadStream() and createWriteStream() functions.

@piranna @AllianceSky-PS sorry I have been a bit busy. I'll look into this. But in the meantime if anyone wants to take this and implement it, I'd appreciate that.
