File browser app: use something more powerful? #377

Open maichai opened 5 years ago

maichai commented 5 years ago

The current file browser apps has limited functionality.

It would be great, if some other file browser could be integrated that offers more functionality.

As an example of what functionality would be great, you may take a look at Krusader, although Krusader is not a web application, it could be integrated via some VNC-to-Web interface, putting the web server in front of that for authentication. I have seen such solutions to work fine.

Sorry, I do not know open source projects that would offer similar functionality with a native web UI. Maybe some other user may jump in and propose some project that might be used?

The goal of our project is to alllow a simple way for non-technical users to bring services up.

I am not sure how krusader in a vnc to web can help them.

At the same time I am not sure how it is useful even to technical users. You have million options: pure ssh, midnight commander, even krusader over ssh -x

I guess you would like shellinabox as an app: https://github.com/syncloud/platform/issues/279

I am not against replacing our files app with a proper web based file manager with good design and a thousand starts on github :)

Nothing we can do here I think. Feel free to reopen if you have any concrete suggestions.
