Dropbox API v1 deprecated, now disabled

"On June 28, 2017, API v1 will be turned off." —Dropbox

There's a migration guide, but it specifically mentions that there's no info about Ruby migration yet. I expect I have to wait until the Ruby Dropbox SDK is updated to deal with v2.

API v1 endpoints were turned off yesterday, so droxi doesn't work anymore. Need to look into porting to the v2 API.

https://github.com/Jesus/dropbox_api looks like the way to go, but I can't even require the gem without a LoadError for some reason.

Edit: dumb reason; the doc specifies dropbox_api but it's dropbox-api that works.

Searching GitHub for some API v2 libraries for Ruby and found this: https://github.com/waits/dropbox-sdk-ruby. It says "Ruby SDK for the Dropbox API v2" but I can't confirm that.

Thanks for the link. I started developing the v2 version using the library I linked in my previous comment, but it's probably worth looking at both to see which would better serve droxi's purposes.

dropbox_api seems to be the better choice, since dropbox-sdk-ruby is notably missing support for the file-sharing endpoints.
