sharepoint-stuff

A package that adds a range of functionality for working with sharepoint sites from python e.g. uploading and downloading of files, creation of folders, etc. Under constant development and change as of January 2023.

Installation

Run the following to install:

python -m pip install sharepoint-stuff

Usage

from sharepoint_stuff import getCTX, uploadFile

# Initial authentication is necessary for all other functions in this package

ctx = getCTX("SHAREPOINT_URL", "USERNAME", "PASSWORD")

# then you can use that ClientContext (ctx) to authenticate for all the other functions, for example:

# the sharepoint relative url is relative to the name of your site so if you were in the directory -
# https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/MAIN_SITE/Shared%20Documents/important_docs then your relative url is "Shared Documents/important_docs/"

# the filepath should include the filename, this is so that the name of the file on sharepoint can be declared seperately to the name of the
# file on the system
uploadFile(ctx, "FILENAME_FOR_SHAREPOINT", "FILEPATH_ON_SYSTEM", "SHAREPOINT_RELATIVE_URL")
