Martin Tranberg 7fab89cbbb Ret tre fejl i download_sharepoint.py og tilføj CLAUDE.md
- force_refresh sendes nu korrekt til MSAL så token-cache omgås ved 401
- safe_get bruges ved download-retry efter URL-refresh for at få exponential backoff
- CSV DictWriter genbruges i stedet for at oprette to separate instanser

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

Project Overview

A Python utility that synchronizes SharePoint Online folders to local storage using the Microsoft Graph API. Offers both a CLI (download_sharepoint.py) and a modern GUI (sharepoint_gui.py).

Running the Tool

# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

# GUI mode (recommended for interactive use)
python sharepoint_gui.py

# CLI mode (for automation/scripting)
python download_sharepoint.py

Configuration is read from connection_info.txt (gitignored — copy from connection_info.template.txt and fill in credentials).

Architecture

Two-file structure with clear separation of concerns:

download_sharepoint.py — Core engine with four logical layers:

  1. Authentication — MSAL ConfidentialClientApplication using OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials flow. Tokens are refreshed via force_refresh=True when a 401 is received.
  2. Graph API navigationget_site_id()get_drive_id()process_item_list() (recursive, handles @odata.nextLink pagination).
  3. Download & resiliencedownload_single_file() with Range header support for resumable downloads. get_fresh_download_url() handles expired pre-signed URLs. The @retry_request decorator provides exponential backoff (up to 5 retries, 2^n seconds) for 429s and network errors.
  4. ConcurrencyThreadPoolExecutor (max 5 workers). A report_lock guards the shared error list. A stop_event allows the GUI stop button to cancel in-flight work.

sharepoint_gui.py — CustomTkinter wrapper that:

  • Persists settings to a local JSON file
  • Spawns the core engine in a background thread
  • Patches requests.get to route through the GUI's log display
  • Provides a folder browser for LOCAL_PATH

Key Behaviors to Preserve

  • Self-healing sessions: On 401, the code refreshes both the MSAL access token and the pre-signed Graph download URL before retrying — these are two separate expiry mechanisms.
  • Resumable downloads: Files are downloaded in 1 MB chunks using HTTP Range headers. Existing files are skipped if their size matches; partial files are resumed from the last byte.
  • Stop signal: stop_event.is_set() is checked in the download loop and recursive traversal — any new code that loops must respect this.

Output

  • sharepoint_download.log — Full operation log
  • download_report_YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS.csv — Per-run error report (gitignored)
