How to use Dropbox as Django media files storage?

Question

Is there a clean way of using Dropbox as storage for django media files?. Like you would do with s3boto and AmazonS3 described here: How to set-up a Django project with django-storages and Amazon S3

Thanks

Answer 1

django-storages has a dropbox implementation ready to go, just:

pip install dropbox django-storages

and in your settings file:

INSTALLED_APPS += (
    'storages',
)

DEFAULT_FILE_STORAGE = 'storages.backends.dropbox.DropBoxStorage'
