Hat hier schonmal jemand einen rund 70gb großen Ordner von #Nextcloud nach #Android synchronisiert? Der Zielordner liegt außerhalb vom Nextcloud Ordner auf dem Android-System, deshalb fällt die normale Nextcloud-App schonmal raus. Man liest immer wieder von #FolderSync für diese Aufgabe, aber das will bei mir nicht. #Autosync startet den sync immerhin, bricht dann aber nach wenigen Minuten ab und meint es sei fertig.

Here is an other post of my series about #^WebDAV & CO .

In the last posts we learn how to mount the Hubzilla/streams cloud by WebDAV to our desktop or phone.

Now if we would have the option to auto-sync folders into or from the Hubzilla/streams cloud this would gives us even more abilities and extended usability.

For auto-sync folders form an android phone you can try RoundSync

The project builds on rclone and is forked from RXC

RXC is also a very useful app but it is lacking the auto-sync function.

After you set up the WebDAV remote connection in RoundSync you can add tasks and timer for triggering the different tasks - i love it.



On your desktop and if you are on Linux you can have a look at Celeste

First set up the WebDAV connection and add to the URL also a folder in your cloud if you like



then set up the local folder like:



Celeste works very well - the downside is that we can´t set a time-period for syncing... when Celeste is running sync will start every 2 second...



Auto-sync folders can be very useful for a lot of things, not just for backups.
You may post and tell us about the use cases you come up with.

I use it to save my photo collection of images i find in the web to a HZ photo album. Also edited notes from Joplin can be shared this way automatically.



In the next post i will show an Android audio player which can play your privat music /audio file collection from your WebDAV streaming cloud.

STAY TUNED and keep following
