GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 710264
Sync with OwnCloud
Last modified: 2017-07-31 12:37:01 UTC
Pretty simple: would be great to see Tomboy sync notes with OwnCloud. Thanks.
We will better support storing notes on a remote location. I wonder if it would be good enough to just point Tomboy to the location of your ownCloud client. Then you wouldn't have to wait for someone to implement the API calls. Thoughts?
ownCloud supports webdav. You should be able to have your Tomboy folder there, I can test this if you want.
When syncing Tomboy notes with OwnCloud, does it matter what type of version of Tomboy notes OwnCloud syncs with?
@PYL : You again ;-) tgmiller5 raises a pretty good point. As PYL said, the notes are sync using webdav. There are some apps able to sync notes with OwnCloud: - An OwnCloud apps : http://apps.owncloud.com/content/show.php?content=155599 - Meego/Sailfish KhtNotes : http://khertan.net/pages/khtnotes - PYL Gnome Notes (aka Bijiben) : https://wiki.gnome.org/action/show/Apps/Bijiben - Android Papyrus : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kallisto.papyrusex - zNotes on Windows and Linux : http://sourceforge.net/projects/znotes/ So the critical point is to ensure these apps are compliant in the way they sync with OwnCloud. One Tomboy note, once sync, should be readable and editable within KhtNotes for instance. And, of course, in the other direction.
(In reply to comment #4) There are some apps able to sync notes with OwnCloud https://github.com/owncloud/notes/ is their online editor. It stores data in a "Notes" folder - plain text notes files. Might support markdown eventually (https://github.com/owncloud/notes/issues/5) In both cases ("just point Tomboy to the location") there is no API, just webdav.
(In reply to comment #5) Here's a markdown library: https://code.google.com/p/markdownsharp/ I know Stefen was asking about supporting Markdown. It would make it a lot easier for Tomdroid.
The Tomboy team has moved from GNOME Bugzilla to GitHub for bug reports and feature requests: https://github.com/tomboy-notes/tomboy/issues/ Closing this report as NOTGNOME as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping (bug 781054) to keep tasks in one place. Please feel free to transfer this task to GitHub if this task is still valid in a recent Tomboy version. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
