dropbox-sdk-python VS PRAW

The creation of the dropbox-sdk-python repo was almost certainly overseen by Guido van Rossum since he was working at Dropbox at the time. There is a note in the Smartsheet SDK repo that parts of it were developed by Dropbox as well.

Or do you or should I just use this 'dropbox-sdk-python' (https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-python)?

I'm not drawing conclusions from this, but I did some poking around..

I ran `git clone` on the repos of both rsync[0] and the official Dropbox SDK for Python[1]. I then ran sloccount on both of them.

rsync came in at a total of 51,410 physical source lines of code.

The Dropbox SDK came in at a total of 74,140 physical source lines of code.

In this example, we will demonstrate how we can integrate with a third-party storage provider like Dropbox to create backups of files uploaded to Appwrite. For the sake of this example, we will be using Dropbox’s Python SDK. A similar concept applies to other API providers like Box or Google Drive. So let’s get started.

I'm... not sure I understand the question? PRAW still works just fine for "personal use" of the reddit API.

Thank you for pointing out. So there is no need then for the access token? Only with the refresh token is enough? To be honest I took a look at it but I did not expect that to be under authentication as strictly speaking, the user already made the authentication. Also I took a look at the code at https://github.com/praw-dev/praw/blob/master/praw/reddit.py and I did not get a hint whether was possible to pass it or not. I am just saying this to let you know I tried to search for the answer before asking. Again thank you for the help.

To get the relevant IDs, you can use something like PRAW to query the subreddit for the top 1000 posts for example.

Huge thanks to the contributors to PRAW, which is the Python package that does all the heavy lifting relating to Reddit's API that I need for this script.

However, in practice duplicate items were yielded with these smaller numbers. So I increased the limit briefly to 250 in October 2016, and then increased it finally to 301 in December 2016 in order to resolve https://github.com/praw-dev/praw/issues/673. That issue provides an explanation for how 301 came to be.

Why? You gotta be ready for any status code. Even 777.
