Mount iCloud drive to filesystem #59

Closed felkru closed 5 months ago

I would love the App to automatically add a iCloud directory somewhere in your filesystem, so that you can access iCloud Drive more easily.

I very much second this! ❤️

I think what you’ve built here looks awesome, but unfortunately I’m not looking to access iCloud from a UI, rather I have a command line only interface install of Ubuntu server, and am currently hoping to find a way I can simply cd into my iCloud drive/folder in order to read out it’s contents or drop things in for upload to then access on another device

Super sort of basic cp, mv, rm, ls, less, nano, touch, and cat sorts of things really

if this type of functionality already exists in this project, then I’d be perfectly happy with it as is and apologize, however if that’s the case then I would still insist there’s some sort of valid issue here worth addressing as I’m unable to find evidence of any such functionality on the snap’s page, in this repo’s README or elsewhere (where this GitHub is the only official “site” the snap page references), or even through any third party mentions in blogs/articles, social media, forums, or anywhere else on the internet after investing a hefty amount of time with Google in trying to do so

So if it’s case A, where this sort of use case and features don’t currently exist, I back up @felkru’s feature request empirically and would even be willing to help with the work through PRs if perhaps you could just assist me with a little technical overview of how the functional connection to iCloud that’s currently working in the UI now works, then I’d be happy to start actively applying that knowledge to a simple headless API which we might then be able to utilize in creating a command line tool

If it’s case B though, seems the issue would simply be a lack of official documentation, useable examples, and etc

Would be happy to help out in creating and contributing any such artifacts towards that end as well, though I’d need some direct and personal support in that case, in order to get it all working properly and then have the understanding necessary myself that crafting any useful technical guidance would first be required on my part

I came here as well thinking it would actually mount the icloud drive, this is only a QT wrapper for the web interface, nothing more.

I've looked around and this is all I could find: https://github.com/mandarons/icloud-drive-docker

This won't be a feature supported in this web app
