Feature request: SeaDrive macOS - native support for FileProvider #1398

Closed soliujing closed 6 months ago

soliujing commented 2 years ago

Despite SeaDrive can run with additional kernel extention loaded, it would be essential to suport FileProvider API as native OS fille management system, like other public cloud client , DropBox / Box / OneDrive.

Any plan for SeaDrive?

We'll look at this feature this year.

KERNEL support being deprecated since macOS 12.3 and public release is approaching. This issue needs higher priority, otherwise customers will be impacted :)

I don't see any news about deprecating all kernel extensions. The only recent news is that kexts used by Dropbox and Box will be deprecated in 12.3. SeaDrive uses macFuse, which is a file system extension. It's not listed in the apple official page about deprecated extensions: https://developer.apple.com/support/kernel-extensions/ .

Anyway we're working on file provider already. Not sure how much efforts it will take to implement it. Hopefully we will support this before macOS 13 is released.

3.0 version uses File Provider. This issue can be closed.
