php get url from dropbox - php

Question

I am using the php script dropbox recommended https://github.com/BenTheDesigner, and can get a json response, and also list files.
ie This is an output of files in my developer account from test.php.
This is a list of all files in your [APP] Dropbox.
api_upload_test.txt45 bytes
dsdsdsdsdsdsd0 bytes
ghhhhhhhhhhhh0 bytes
If I Fell - The Beatles.mp31 MB
Koala.jpg762.5 KB
test_download_api_upload_test.txt45 bytes
But I need the absolute url for these files. ie
http://something/sandbox/folder/Koala.jpg
or
http://something/fileget/http://something/koala.jpg
I cannot find anything about specifying a url, or whether I use a dropbox url. Probably a stupid and simple answer.
This is an example of the array;
array(3) {
["code"]=>
string(3) "200"
["body"]=>
object(stdClass)#8 (9) {
["hash"]=>
string(32) "df98863d80aa0c89f5e359a4f3e10b5a"
["thumb_exists"]=>
bool(false)
["bytes"]=>
int(0)
["path"]=>
string(1) "/"
["is_dir"]=>
bool(true)
["size"]=>
string(7) "0 bytes"
["root"]=>
string(10) "app_folder"
["contents"]=>
array(6) {
[0]=>
object(stdClass)#9 (12) {
["revision"]=>
int(1)
["rev"]=>
string(9) "109a31b3c"
["thumb_exists"]=>
bool(false)
["bytes"]=>
int(45)
["modified"]=>
string(31) "Tue, 21 Aug 2012 12:26:04 +0000"
["client_mtime"]=>
string(31) "Tue, 21 Aug 2012 12:26:04 +0000"
["path"]=>
string(20) "/api_upload_test.txt"
["is_dir"]=>
bool(false)
["icon"]=>
string(15) "page_white_text"
["root"]=>
string(7) "dropbox"
["mime_type"]=>
string(10) "text/plain"
["size"]=>
string(8) "45 bytes"
}
[1]=>
object(stdClass)#10 (10) {
["revision"]=>
int(3)
["rev"]=>
string(9) "309a31b3c"
["thumb_exists"]=>

["is_dir"]=>
bool(true)
["icon"]=>
string(6) "folder"
["root"]=>
string(7) "dropbox"
["size"]=>
string(7) "0 bytes"
}
[2]=>

}

Found a way of getting the url. The full path is not given in the array from dropbox. You have to specify media in the request, and the full path is given, which expires every 4 hours.
ie
$media = $dropbox->media($path);
