Great work mate ♥️
This looks like a great tool, thank you. One question, does it only allow manual transfers or could it be set up to sync a folder between two devices?
This tool only does manual transfers. You could use another tool that can sync over WebDAV and use this as the server.
Ah OK, thanks for the info
I also wrote the WebDAV server it uses internally:
https://github.com/sciactive/nephele
Reading the WebDAV spec was really fun. That is one of the best written specs I’ve ever read.
My goal is to eventually cover CardDAV and CalDAV too, so you can transfer and sync contacts and calendars between devices too.
My pie in the sky dream is to turn the server into a backup solution that automatically deduplicates across machines, and lets you browse a specific backup as a WebDAV mount, or even in your browser. So something very similar to BorgBackup, but that has a first party GUI client for Mac, Windows, and Linux.
Looks super clean and neat, you even included controller support. Thanks for sharing!
Looks like this is only over local network rather than the internet? Still very cool, but I was hoping for something to replace Google drive for file sharing with my family. There's probably something out there though, any suggestions?
This isn’t really meant to cover that use case. You can look into Nextcloud. That should cover what you need.
Thank you!
It looks like this project uses webdav, at which point you might as well run a nextcloud instance
