Sync devices using Syncthing #109

Open yerc opened 1 day ago

yerc commented 1 day ago

Describe the solution you'd like I would like NotallyX to sync between my phone and tablet locally using Syncthing https://syncthing.net/

Additional context For this to happen an app has to save its data files in a user-accessible folder. Syncthing will then synchronize the folder in one device (example phone) with the same app's data files in another device (example tablet).

Thanks for adding features I was hoping Notally had.

You can sync you backup folder with it. You can even backup to a WebDAV mount.

Also have in mind that syncthing for android development is stale.

As you proposed I would consider configuring whether the app uses the apps internal storage or some user-specified folder on the device. That would enable you as @ippocratis said to use syncthing, WebDAV or whatever to sync the files between devices. What I dont want is to manually add service-specific integrations, since maintaining it would take a lot of effort
