Upload website + database to dropbox with PHP

Does anyone know, if it’s possible to backup my website and database to a dropbox account with php or something? And if it’s possible, how can I do it the best way? 🙂

Answer

Yes it is, have a look at the dropbox-php.

Example Code from the documentation:

/* Please supply your own consumer key and consumer secret */
$consumerKey = '';
$consumerSecret = '';

include 'Dropbox/autoload.php';

session_start();
$oauth = new Dropbox_OAuth_PHP($consumerKey, $consumerSecret);

// If the PHP OAuth extension is not available, you can try
// PEAR's HTTP_OAUTH instead.
// $oauth = new Dropbox_OAuth_PEAR($consumerKey, $consumerSecret);

$dropbox = new Dropbox_API($oauth);

$dropbox->putFile('newPath.txt','/local/path/tofile');
