Sharing folder
Hello! I have a problem getting (and create) a link to a public folder in python:
dbx.sharing_create_shared_link(DxFold)
dbx.sharing_get_shared_links(DxFold)
Everything works in python version 3.8.10 However, when running on a RaspberryPi 3B + running version 3.4. an error message appears:
=============================================================

====================================================
How can I fix this on the current version of python3.4? You can't put anything on raspberries - that's the root of the problem. Tell me who understands.
Hi vas1992,
Yes, 'six' module is part of Python standard distribution and that's why preinstalled, of course.

(vRMS) pi@RU000Q:~/source/RMS $ python3 -m pip show six Name: six Version: 1.8.0 ...Your version (1.8.0) is far old! 🤷 At that time 'ensure_str' isn't part of 'six' and that's why missing in your code. For first time it appears in some releases of version 1.11 and finally became part of the standard distribution in version 1.12.0.
You have to update your 'six' version, at least 1.12 or newer, or even better update entire Python distribution to more recent one. 😉
Hope this helps.

What version of 'dropbox' do you have installed, and what version of 'six' do you have installed?
On Ubuntu 20.04 (worked)
pip3 listdropbox 11.25.0
===============================
RPi 3B+ (No work)
python3 -m pip listdropbox (11.25.0)
=====Hi vas1992,
Greg-DB asked you for result of a command like:
pip3 show six
or another option:
python3 -m pip show six
Whatever you prefer. 😉 Function 'ensure_str' should come up there, that seems missing now for some reason.
In addition you can find out your six.py place by using following on command line:
echo "import six; print('path to six:', six.__file__)" | python3
... and inspect byself what's there - is there such a function defined or referred/redirected by some way 🧐. Normally there should be.
Good luck and happy New Year!
