Description

It would be very handy to connect the library to a s3 Bucket in addition to a local file system or network storage. This would allow having "unlimited" storage for someone like a photographer or videographer. Really nice would be local tagging and then uploading to s3.

Solution

• add "enable s3" setting for one library
• • add bucketurl (to have options for example AWS s3, minio, gcp cloudstorage...), region, access & secret key and sync options
• scan s3 bucket for existing files
• upload files to s3 if option is enabled

Be aware, that there could be costs for s3 for uploading and downloading (previews/thumbnails) and there could be different storage classes like glacier.

This proposal probably falls under Features I Likely Won’t Add/Pull - Native Cloud Integration. You could try on of these (I don't no whether they work well or at all; or if they delete all your files):
