Backup Pythonista Scripts to Dropbox

This is a follow-up article to my recent post on "How I get my SQLite database onto my iOS devices using Pythonista".

I have the simple script and every time I make a change, or I add a new script in, I will run this and it will push all the scripts into dropbox for me.  I have a separate folder and store them different from all the other scripts I have.

import os
import dropbox
from dropboxlogin import get_client

dropbox_client = get_client()

for file in os.listdir('.'):
	if file.endswith(".py"):
		print file
		f=open(file,'r')
		dropbox_client.put_file('My_Backups/Pythonista/'+file,f)
		f.close()

This is allows me to just write and test the code, then when I add in all the comments and descriptions, my usual headers etc, I can do this on my setup when I have a proper keyboard , etc.

You could also adapt this if you have other documents stored in Pythonista, text files, log files for example.  As you can see this filters on just *.py files.

You can find these scripts all up on my Github.

I am always interested in your thoughts so if you have any comments or feedback then please feel free to add any comments, or you can mail me  here.
