Hello, I use Nextcloud client on openSUSE 15.1 plasma (kde)
I plan to use Nextcloud pretty extensively as I just setup a personal server with lot of disk space.
but, right now, when I add anything on my Nextcloud account, it's downloaded on my laptop disk. When it was only 10Gb, I could cope with it.
of course I can simply use the web interface, but the kde integration is so good I would like to keep it.
is it possible to setup the Nextcloud client so that it only keep a link to the server (like the android client does) and download only on demand?
thanks jdd -- http://dodin.org
You could mount your Nextcloud files via webdav. I just tried using dolphin. I was able to connect using my username and application password. I could open and edit text documents, open pdf's (I didn't try to modify or create), but I was unable to open ods/odt documents - Libreoffice would load and then display an error (I think Libreoffice doesn't like KIO). I then tried mounting with davfs2 via mount -t davfs https://mycloudserver.tld/remote.php/webdav /mnt/foo . The mount command requested a username and then password. I did get a warning that the server does not support locks. I was able to access and edit all of my files. Maybe this will work for your use case.
