bsync

Sync files from your computer to Box.com using the Box API

Think rsync for Box

Can handle large files with chunked upload support

Right now, this only syncs your folder to Box and not Box to your folder

Install

pip install bsync

Configuration

You need to create a Box app with access to writing files/folders. The app must have JWT server side auth enabled. The JSON settings file with your keys will be required to run this. For help, see this Box developer guide
