For a short while now the main script I use to sync between iOS and my main computer (Synchronator) has stopped working because of the changes to the ssl version with Dropbox. I need to get this looked into and sorted but for now I will get around it by syncing over to iCloud.
Recently another snippet of code I have and use to send SMS messages to my karate club stopped working and this was because of a recent password change. It changed the hash that i use. As I use this hash in quite a number of scripts I needed to make an improvement to the scripts so that I can minimise the effort needed for when the hash changes. I decided to store the hash in a file and read from that, so now if I ever change it I just need to update one location. This was all done with adding two simple lines of code.
with open("/private/var/mobile/Library/Mobile Documents/iCloud~com~omz-software~Pythonista3/Documents/hash.txt", "r") as f:
HASH = f.read()
I have put the code I used above, this also has the path to the iClpud Drive folder from within Pythonista, I have also listed it out here.
/private/var/mobile/Library/Mobile Documents/iCloud~com~omz-software~Pythonista3/Documents/
So if you do need to share files across from your Mac to your iOS devices, you just need to place them into here.
