Files = 0kb ?
Hi, and thanks for this contribution, having IPFS on nextcloud is just a great idea ! I installed V0.2 of your app. Everything seemed to work fine : the files appeared, but then I noticed they were all 0KB... When I tried to read or download one, it didn't work.
It works if I do that in a terminal with ipfs commands, but not using nextcloud interface...
Any Idea of what I could do to correct that problem ?
First what kind of ipfs node do you have, and what version? and if you add the files with ipfs directly do they show up in nextcloud? Gonna need a little bit more information to help you
Hi and thank you for such celerity :-) I think i made an ipfs alone install : ipfs version 0.5.1 If I upload an ipfs file with nextcloud, it shows up but isn't correct (0kb and not downloadable) If i upload with cp command in terminal, it's ok and I can upload & get the files... Weird.
Can I ask you where are located the error logs of your apps ? and what datas are written in database ?
Theres no need to write anything to the db. Error logs i haven't figured out how to do them nicely. Im guessing youre using the go-ipfs implementation then. that one does not yet support metadata which is kinda required for this app to work properly. See https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/issues/6920
Yeah i think thats pretty much all i can do for you, sadly
Bingo. Nevermind, I'll upload with terminal. A bit borring, but nothing too mean, it's allright.
Thank you very much for replying so quickly, your app is great ;-)
same problem for me... I can access with "ipfs files" from CLI, but not from NC. Is a the go-ipfs 0.5.1 upgrade problem ??
probably you should be able to see the files though. if you add them to the same directory as you set in nextcloud. go-ipfs doesnt have timestamps yet. so as a workaround i just use the current time but nextcloud doesnt really like that but reading should work
I have the same problem with 0 KB files upon upload.

Symptom:
- I can upload files just fine using http://192.168.1.43:5001/webui
- I can download these same files using the Nextcloud web UI
- I can also delete the files using the Nextcloud web UI
- But when I try to upload a file using the Nextcloud web UI, the file appears to upload (size and speed on progress bar), but after the progress bar goes away and file appears, it is just 0 KB -- aka, an empty file
- I can download the file from either IPFS web UI or Nextcloud web UI, but the file is empty

UPDATE: I just now noticed in the IPFS web UI that it shows as "go-ipfs v0.5.0". What version of IPFS do I need to make this work?
go-ipfs does not yet support metadata. See https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/issues/6920. Currently you can only really get it to work with the js-ipfs implementation. I'll test and fix bugs once go-ipfs has metadata. Unless you find a bug using js-ipfs
The same issue happens with ipfs v0.6.0, one thing to note is the ipfs-node's message when uploading a file called hola.txt (capturing the tcp/5001 port stream):

This is the error:

After this, the upload seems to go through but file is uploaded as 0kb (I'm not aware if I'm using metadata or not) and the content is unreadable.
Thank you!
@h0cin youre using go-ipfs/0.6.0 which currently does not have metadata. Which means writing won't work. If you really want to get this working you can use js-ipfs.

hello, You can take a look at this article:
https://medium.com/pinata/how-to-include-metadata-with-your-ipfs-uploads-19813513320f
This author shows how to include metadata when uploading files.
I hope you can improve the IPFS app. It's a great idea to combine with IPFS.
Thank you for your contribution!
