@tobiasKaminsky

Description

@tobiasKaminsky
  • user is in web UI
  • finds a file and wants to open it locally (e.g. Collabora is not sufficient, Inkscape for SVG, etc.)
  • user clicks "edit locally"
  • special link type (tbd: nc://open/$account@Server/$remotePath)

On Desktop:

  • client listens to this link
  • client opens file if already synced, if not syncs it first, then opens it via native file handling mechanism)
  • if account not set up or file not syncable (e.g. folder is excluded by "selective sync") show an understandable error message
  • file is being locked while editing this file
