dropbox_search: Search Dropbox files and folders.

In karthik/rDrop: Dropbox R interface.

Description

If you are searching for a file/folder in the root directory, you can ignore the path. If searching for a file/folder in a specific location, then you should provide a full path to the object.

Usage

  dropbox_search(cred, query = NULL, deleted = FALSE,
    file_limit = 1000, is_dir = NULL, verbose = FALSE,
    curl = getCurlHandle(), ...)

Arguments

cred	An object of class DropboxCredentials with Dropobox specific credentials.
query	The search string. Must be at least three characters long.
deleted	If this parameter is set to true, then files and folders that have been deleted will also be included in the search.
file_limit	The maximum and default value is 1,000. No more than file_limit search results will be returned.
is_dir	logical, TRUE looks for directories only.
verbose	logical. Default is FALSE. Set to TRUE to get a full file listing.
curl	If using in a loop, call getCurlHandle() first and pass the returned value in here (avoids unnecessary footprint)
...	optional additional curl options (debugging tools mostly).

Value

data.frame with results. No results will return empty data.frame
