I'm a new user on box.net site and I've uploaded A LOT of .zip files that I want to use in my project.
The problem is that, normally, the share link is something like: box.net/1.zip .. so I can predict that the 100th file will be box.net/100.zip ... but this is not the case in box.net..
I cant obviously copy every files link manually since what I uploaded and need is ~1000 small .zip files and copying each files link will take ages.
So is there a way to fix this?
We recently released a new feature, where you can give your share a custom name. See the blog entry for more details on how to use it.
Right now, we have not exposed an API to set these custom links, but that will be coming soon.

I am trying to build a software which link 2 files in different folders and will sync it.
Like if I have folder
c:\hi\foo.txt
d:\yep\poo.txt
Whenever I change the contents of foo.txt and save, it should automatically update the contents in poo.txt. Same should work the other way round too.
I know there are tools to achieve synchronization between files. But I can't figure out how they work.
Any insights on how this can be achieved or how other tools work or any links to study on this topic would be wonderful.
I has old website, which I miss dashbored login info, so I didn't has access to its database
Now I implement new one, what the best way to extract previous data (mp3 files, articals, mp4 files) to use it in new one.
I hope there is a way to extract its not manually
Thanks
I'd suggest in future all extraneous matter, images, mp3s etc. be held in a separate folder on your server, and hyperlinked to where they appear on a page.
That folder can be downloaded for safe-keeping.
.
In this case, I can only suggest that if the website is still up ( since you've simply lost the keys ), as an ordinary user you could download the whole website [ which wouldn't include the database ] with something like wget or Httrack to your computer, and from that extract what items are possible to your computer [ filtering by extensions if need be ].
At the very least you should get an idea of which items were present, even if they don't download.
As for articles, either the website online, or the downloaded website should display them in a browser, and you could copy the text.
None of this applies if the website is no longer online; but I wish you well whatever the outcome.

I haven't tried anything yet because I'm not sure how to even approach this problem. I'm not even sure what to Google. I do, however, have a pretty good handle on React. Thanks!
Update: The folders will not be storing files, just hyperlinks.
You need to model the problem space first. i.e. models for folders, and files. Each having properties (name, etc.) and associations (folders can have many files and subfolders).
To store the physical files you can use a third-party service like Amazon S3.
This would get you started at least.
I manage a team of designers working on Indesign.
When we work on a project, it often happens that a designer has to work on the project of another. We work with Dropbox for Business.
But when we take the work of another designer, there is often missing links and fonts.
Is there a plugin or a way to develop a plugin that would allow, when we create a new indd file (or for the protection of the same file):
Automatically create a "Links" folder and another "Document fonts" at side of the indd file
Systematically add a new link or new typography in the corresponding folder?
To simplify: each action on font or on a link, make a kind of "Indesign Package" in real time?
If this is not a solution, do you have any solutions to meet this need?
I don't know of a specific script or plugin that does this.
However, it should be possible to write a script with an eventhandler with a beforeClose event that runs certain script commands every time a user closes a document (or even every time a user adds, changes or deletes a link). At this point the script could run some copyLink commands on all the images and fonts (?) placing them all in the folders next to the document.
The whole script could be made a startup script, so it becomes active anytime any user runs InDesign.
(I'm actually not sure, if fonts can be copied so easily. Worst case scenario would be that the script would need to run some packaging command to gather the fonts somewhere, copy them over to where you need them and then delete the rest of the temporary package.)
Did you consider Creative Cloud Libraries ? They are meant to allow sharing assets within a team. Apart form that, you users would need to have a same access to the file system (a common drive letter for the network path for example).
Another solution would be to use a DAM solution so users would link files from the DAM.
Eventually, you could sure think of a script as mdomino offered.
I'm new here, so hello everyone!
I wrote a few things in Processing language and now I need to switch to Processing.js. I need to write an app that first scans the sketch folder to prepare a list of provided files. And what was straightforward in Processing is not in PJS.
I'm currently searching the web but I only found solutions for classic Processing. I know that JavaScript has restrictions and in general can't access the user-side files, but is there any way to list the sketch-itself files?
The only way that comes to my mind is to list them on server side via PHP and generate the .pde file dynamically depending on the sketch folder. But the catch is to not use any other language.
Thanks in advance for help!
Processing.js running on a website can only get information that URLs can provide it, and since there are no "dir listings" on the web, it can't grab dir listing content for a URL for you work with. However, depending on what you really want to do, there might be a way to make it work without resorting to PHP.
Assuming you have your Pjs page running on www.example.org/index.html, and you want to list content for www.example.org/sketch/, one option is to simply have a file www.example.org/sketch/list.txt containing all the filenames that the sketch can access, and simply grab that with a
String[] fileNames = loadStrings("./sketch/list.txt")
instruction.
If you can give an example of what you mean with "I need to write an app that first scans the sketch folder to prepare a list of provided files", a more specific solution is probably possible (i.e., what are the files, what does the user need them for, etc)
