Since CreateFolder function seems to be in a class ($this->apiCall points to that), $x should be encapsulated in a function (that is the error that's shown). So to make it work, just call it from outside class.
You are using DropboxClient.php so following sample.php from this package your create a php file and put the following code on it:
<?php
// these 2 lines are just to enable error reporting and disable output buffering (don't include this in you application!)
error_reporting(E_ALL);
enable_implicit_flush();
// -- end of unneeded stuff
// if there are many files in your Dropbox it can take some time, so disable the max. execution time
set_time_limit(0);
require_once("DropboxClient.php");
// you have to create an app at https://www.dropbox.com/developers/apps and enter details below:
$dropbox = new DropboxClient(array(
'app_key' => "",
'app_secret' => "",
'app_full_access' => false,
),'en');
// first try to load existing access token
$access_token = load_token("access");
if(!empty($access_token)) {
$dropbox->SetAccessToken($access_token);
echo "loaded access token:";
print_r($access_token);
}
elseif(!empty($_GET['auth_callback'])) // are we coming from dropbox's auth page?
{
// then load our previosly created request token
$request_token = load_token($_GET['oauth_token']);
if(empty($request_token)) die('Request token not found!');
// get & store access token, the request token is not needed anymore
$access_token = $dropbox->GetAccessToken($request_token);
store_token($access_token, "access");
delete_token($_GET['oauth_token']);
}
// checks if access token is required
if(!$dropbox->IsAuthorized())
{
// redirect user to dropbox auth page
$return_url = "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']."?auth_callback=1";
$auth_url = $dropbox->BuildAuthorizeUrl($return_url);
$request_token = $dropbox->GetRequestToken();
store_token($request_token, $request_token['t']);
die("Authentication required. <a href='$auth_url'>Click here.</a>");
}
echo "<pre>";
echo "<b>Account:</b>\r\n";
print_r($dropbox->GetAccountInfo());
// Here will create the folder.
$dropbox->CreateFolder('test');
function store_token($token, $name)
{
if(!file_put_contents("tokens/$name.token", serialize($token)))
die('<br />Could not store token! <b>Make sure that the directory `tokens` exists and is writable!</b>');
}
function load_token($name)
{
if(!file_exists("tokens/$name.token")) return null;
return #unserialize(#file_get_contents("tokens/$name.token"));
}
function delete_token($name)
{
#unlink("tokens/$name.token");
}
function enable_implicit_flush()
{
#apache_setenv('no-gzip', 1);
#ini_set('zlib.output_compression', 0);
#ini_set('implicit_flush', 1);
for ($i = 0; $i < ob_get_level(); $i++) { ob_end_flush(); }
ob_implicit_flush(1);
echo "<!-- ".str_repeat(' ', 2000)." -->";
}
?>
Hope it helps.
