As far as I can tell, there hasn't been any release of seafish published so far. I submitted this issue to document interest in a Seafile client (and ideally cloud storage backend) for Sailfish OS. @bionade24 - can you tell me more about the state of the project?

Hello, yes this isn't finished. Parts of the UI are missing and as SFOS doesn't use XDG but nemomobile stuff, the log/config/cache parts have to be rewritten, too. Still a lot of work to be done, but I don't have much time currently. Probably will continue working on in it during Christmas Holidays, hopefully finishing it. Currently it runs but fails because the XDG stuff isn't set.

This wouldn't make sense imao, bc this wouldn't use Seafile's syncing feature but just upload over the API, which is way less performant.

If you need something now, the command line client works.

Thank you for the status update!

I'd like to have both - automatic syncing of certain folders (e.g. photos) and selective sharing and backup via Sailfish OS' interfaces.

I'll try the command line client for now.

Since then I thought about it, and honestly, I'm not sure if it's even open source. Probably it isn't, otherwise Nextcloud integration would have been made by the community. It's a Dead-End.

But the backup solution of Sailfish is garbage anyway. If I can give you advice, use a real backup tool like restic or borg.
