Interface with storj linksharing service? #25

Good evening! I was following your project closely but so far was connecting storj to nextcloud via the storj gateway. I have now set up version 0.08 of your app and I had no problem to upload my first file (300MB). Now I was thinking that it may be useful to use nextcloud to create public links from the storj linksharing service. Is this something that could be implemented at some point? Currently it seems I can only do that through the uplink command or the object browser GUI. I know you can share a public link directly via nextcloud but I can only download and not stream directly the content of a video for example. Also, if my nextcloud instance falls appart at some point, the shared links will continue to work flawlessly. I hope it makes sense and look forward to your thoughts on this!

Definitely sounds like something that's doable and adds some value.

Uplink has all the API's required to implement this. I'm unfamiliar with extending the Nextcloud file GUI, but we're probably not the first plugin to do something like this.
