How to save a Pythonista file on iCloud Drive
-
If you want to save a file from Pythonista (py, zip, text,...) into iCloud Drive, and if you have the Workflow app, you could:
-
create once a folder Pythonista in the Workflow folder on iCloud Drive
-
create once a Workflow, for instance named SavePythonistaFileInIcloudDrive, containing only these two actions:
- Get Files from Dropbox
- Show Dropbox Picker off
- File Path /Pythonista/Clipboard
- Error if not found on
- Save File
- Ask where to save off
- iCloud folder /Workflow/Pythonista/
- Overwrite if file exists on
- Text File saved
- Copy to Clipboard
See workflow
- Get Files from Dropbox
-
run this script
import webbrowser import clipboard Import time Import console filename = 'your file' #... save your file into Dropbox, for instance in a folder named Pythonista, #... via a script you find easyly in these forums clipboard.set(filename) webbrowser.open('workflow://x-callback-url/run-workflow?name=SavePythonistaFileInIcloudDrive&input=clipboard&x-success=pythonista://') text = clipboard.get() while text != 'File saved': text = clipboard.get() time.sleep(0.3) console.alert(text)
