talkinggre.blogg.se - What exactly is expandrive

But for a clear idea of what I am asking, this Odrive video explains it well. There was a similar question asked here and what may be a related item on Github.

Unsync files/folders back to placeholders.ĭoes anyone know if this functionality already exists in NC and I am just not seeing it? If not, is this something that might be feasible to add as a feature?.

Recursively sync all files as placeholders.

Placeholder files in your file-system that can be searched locally and download only the files that you need, when you need them, without having to replicate entire folders on every device.

The preferred solution would be for NextCloud to offer the placeholder/selective sync feature. If Odrive connected to NextCloud natively, that would be a step in the right direction, though I’d still miss out on the NC UI most of the time. The best examples of this feature are Odrive and Resilio Sync.

Various third party cloud services either currently have or previously had this ability including Dropbox and OneDrive. I love the UX/UI and community of Nextcloud and really want to migrate all of my files into this ecosystem, but I need a selective sync function based on placeholder files. I’m new to NextCloud, but have used OwnCloud in the past.
