Offline support for files #44

Open tobihagemann opened 8 years ago

tobihagemann commented 8 years ago

Feature request is to add offline support for individual files. There's not much else to say at the moment. 😄

This is great! Would love to see this. For example, keeping important documents with you on your phone while travelling

Essential feature for mobile usage! Looking forward to it.

Would be a great feature when traveling abroad with minimal or non existing data coverage. Thanks!

I'd like to add that we plan to add basic caching functionality to Cryptomator with the next minor version 1.3. This will already solve the typical use case "access your files offline", even though you're not selecting them for offline availability individually.

I understand that a persistent cache is not identical to the offline support proposed here, because it's following the LRU strategy, but it's going to be easier for us to implement, because nothing will change in the UI despite some additional settings.

That's why I'd like to postpone offline support and prioritize a persistent LRU cache.

@tobihagemann thanks for the clarification, however I would be nice to have Cryptomator working in Dropbox-way instead of just virtual volumes. There some use casas in which I do trust the computers being sync (they use full disk encryption etc) so it would be nice to have all the files actually written to the disk and decrypted in folders around the system filesystem.

Is this already working? I just bought the iOS client, and been trying it with some files, and every time I try to open them they need to be redownloaded, even though when I look at the storage information of the app, there's exactly the size of the files I've opened on the "Files and Documents" information.
