"""
The main client API you'll be working with most often. You'll need to
configure a dropbox.session.DropboxSession for this to work, but otherwise
it's fairly self-explanatory.
Before you can begin making requests to the dropbox API, you have to
authenticate your application with Dropbox and get the user to
authorize your application to use dropbox on his behalf. A typical
progam, from the initial imports to making a simple request (``account_info``),
looks like this:
.. code-block:: python
# Include the Dropbox SDK libraries
from dropbox import client, rest, session
# Get your app key and secret from the Dropbox developer website
APP_KEY = 'INSERT_APP_KEY_HERE'
APP_SECRET = 'INSERT_SECRET_HERE'
# ACCESS_TYPE should be 'dropbox' or 'app_folder' as configured for your app
ACCESS_TYPE = 'INSERT_ACCESS_TYPE_HERE'
sess = session.DropboxSession(APP_KEY, APP_SECRET, ACCESS_TYPE)
request_token = sess.obtain_request_token()
url = sess.build_authorize_url(request_token)
# Make the user sign in and authorize this token
print "url:", url
print "Please visit this website and press the 'Allow' button, then hit 'Enter' here."
raw_input()
# This will fail if the user didn't visit the above URL and hit 'Allow'
access_token = sess.obtain_access_token(request_token)
client = client.DropboxClient(sess)
print "linked account:", client.account_info()

Arguments:
- ``cursor``: On the first call, omit this argument (or pass in ``None``). On
subsequent calls, pass in the ``cursor`` string returned by the previous
call.
Returns: A dict with three fields.
- ``entries``: A list of "delta entries" (described below)
- ``reset``: If ``True``, you should your local state to be an empty folder
before processing the list of delta entries. This is only ``True`` only
in rare situations.
- ``cursor``: A string that is used to keep track of your current state.
On the next call to delta(), pass in this value to return entries
that were recorded since the cursor was returned.
- ``has_more``: If ``True``, then there are more entries available; you can
call delta() again immediately to retrieve those entries. If ``False``,
then wait at least 5 minutes (preferably longer) before checking again.
Delta Entries: Each entry is a 2-item list of one of following forms:
- [*path*, *metadata*]: Indicates that there is a file/folder at the given
path. You should add the entry to your local path. (The *metadata*
value is the same as what would be returned by the ``metadata()`` call.)
- If the new entry includes parent folders that don't yet exist in your
local state, create those parent folders in your local state. You
will eventually get entries for those parent folders.
- If the new entry is a file, replace whatever your local state has at
*path* with the new entry.
- If the new entry is a folder, check what your local state has at
*path*. If it's a file, replace it with the new entry. If it's a
folder, apply the new *metadata* to the folder, but do not modify
the folder's children.
- [*path*, ``nil``]: Indicates that there is no file/folder at the *path* on
Dropbox. To update your local state to match, delete whatever is at *path*,
including any children (you will sometimes also get "delete" delta entries
for the children, but this is not guaranteed). If your local state doesn't
have anything at *path*, ignore this entry.
Remember: Dropbox treats file names in a case-insensitive but case-preserving
way. To facilitate this, the *path* strings above are lower-cased versions of
the actual path. The *metadata* dicts have the original, case-preserved path.
