access to Nextcloud media storage #30

Closed deckspace closed 7 years ago

deckspace commented 7 years ago

How can we access audio media stored in nextcloud so it can be used in a playlist?

We have added forked-daapd to our mazizone so we can offer a network playlists of audio files. If our audio files are stored inside of Nextcloud repository can we target this directory as the default media resource in the forked-daapd config.. (just needs a path) ?

thanks

did you try using the "shared URL" produced inside nextCloud when you share a folder?

deckspace commented 7 years ago

Hi, the forked-dappd needs a local directory path /home/pi/nextcloud/media or whatever to where the media files are stored. Other applications could benefit from similar shared file storage.

Did you try to transform the public shared URL produced by nextCloud to a path? I guess it could be something like /var/www/html/nextcloud/.....

The directory path of the files stored in Nextcloud is /var/www/html/nextcloud/data/$user$/files/

So for the user "mazi" and the folder audio/ the path should be: /var/www/html/nextcloud/data/mazi/files/audio/

Nice, I added this in the "Application" guidelines including a screenshot of how to create editable shared files: https://github.com/mazi-project/guides/wiki/Applications (see Nextcloud administrator tips)

Hi Harris,

thanks

Yes mazi is the user in my example, as I explained.
