Two-way WebDAV PDF sync

Open dillonma opened this issue 12 years ago • 6 comments

I'm having a problem syncing to the WebDAV server and saw this on the user guide:

"Zandy’s support for WebDAV is brand-new, and it’s currently limited to opening PDFs. This is largely an artificial limitation, and it should be lifted in the coming week or so."

Very much looking forward to this feature.

Me too, once it is possible to send pdf-files back to a server using WebDAV (+ a couple of bug-fixes), the combination of Zotero on the laptop and Zandy on the tablet (synced using WebDAV) would be an awesome research tool.

HI Avram

I reckon this is probably the most important piece of outstanding functionality. I suspect for anyone with a lot of zotero files, zandy can only be a toy until we can annotate a PDF on our android device and bring the annotations home ...

The Zotero API v2 appears to allow this functionality. https://www.zotero.org/support/dev/server_api/v2/file_upload

Very much looking forward to this.

Is this functionality in the works? I didn't even realize Zandy didn't support uploading of PDFs with annotations until after I had done a bunch of work on my phone, before trying to look at it on my desktop.

This would be a really great feature. Any ideas for a (simple) workaround?

Not only does Zandy not upload modified attachments, but even worse, it overwrites them with the downloaded original ones when syncing. So I lost my annotations that I made on my tablet.. Just a warning.
