Description of Changes
Adds folder kinds so the file manager can work with real directories on
disk.
Desktop
- New folder is now a menu with two options: "Add local folder" and "New
folder on the server".
- Add local folder opens the native picker and mounts a directory. Files
are listed straight from disk, nothing is copied in.
- Subfolders show inside a mount and open like any folder. New folder
inside a mount creates a real directory on disk.
- Moving, dropping or uploading files into a mount writes them to the
directory. The app copy is only removed after the write succeeds. Name
clashes get a " (2)" suffix.
- Mounted files get thumbnails.
- Adding the same directory twice just returns the existing mount.
- Removing a mount never touches the disk.
- The server option is disabled in local mode with a sign in message.
Web + desktop
- Uploading or dropping files while inside a folder puts them in that
folder instead of Local.
- Files can be dragged onto folders in the grid and the tree to move
them.
- Folders show an origin badge (cloud or local).
- The Local view now means files that are not in any folder.
Follow ups for a future pr
- Mount listing cap: large directories currently show the 500 most
recent files with no notice. Will be removed as part of the
virtualisation/performance PR.
- Folders within folders need to be supported
- Symlinks in mounts: currently not listed. Behaviour to be decided
alongside the wider folder work.
