jekyll - Easily embedding (some aspect of) a Dropbox file's metadata in a webpage? -


i provide link on jekyll site curriculum vitae, have saved word document on computer. when edit it, update on web saving dropbox pdf, link on dedicated page of site. users click link , can view file on dropbox's interface. it's not super elegant, it's working now.

i have file's date last modified appear on webpage. right now, i've been editing date manually whenever update document, sort of defeats purpose of easy "save dropbox" workflow.

is there relatively simple way query date modified , display in text? i'm thinking have call dropbox api, since that's if performing data analysis i'm comfortable locally. json, however, not native language, , want ensure i'm not barking wrong tree before invest ton of time.

thanks in advance.

the dropbox api offer ability retrieve file metadata, such file modified time. so, should use the dropbox api v2 /files/get_metadata endpoint.

we recommend using an official sdk, if 1 available platform. there corresponding method in endpoint.
