WebDAV server #6

Open uGeek opened 3 years ago

Would it be possible to support WebDAV servers? This would open up more possibilities for many clouds.

Great application. congratulations

More cloud backend support is planned at the very beginning. The reason why Nextcloud now is simply because I use it as my home server, easy for me to do testing. But as you already know, WebDAV is a standard, backend communication code is reusable, just need to figure out UI flow.

Still tied up at camera roll management feature which is schedule in release 1.4. Will tackle this later. Thank you for using this app.

Any update about the implementation of the webdav protocol?

This would probably help us solve the Kdrive connection issue 45.

I had this in mind ever since the 1st day. but after more than a year's work, i realise it's not that simple. nextcloud (or i should say owncloud) has a well documented API for file syncing with client, and les pas rely heavily on that to make things work. i doubt others (by that i mean other free hosting software and providers)would have the same, or near the same mechanism, though i also haven't done any serious research on them.
