File upload in browser

[butonic]

With #4766 we will add proper conflict handling back to OC. But that is only a fallback mechanism that triggers when a conflict arises.

We can do better:

• If uploading to the filelist check for conflicts before uploading. On conflict show a simple dialog like win8 showing only the number of conflicting files and allowing the user to choose a general resolution: skip all conflicts, overwrite all files, choose which files to keep (and show the conflicts dialog) or cancel upload.
• When file versioning is enabled never show any dialog and always overwrite the file on the server. If the user made a mistake he can always get back the old version from the file history. (This is how dropbox does it)
• Use xdg_user_dirs standard to upload files to meaningful default directories from an upload button in Apps like Pictures and Music:
• Render progress bar in file list row, tracked in Files: location of upload progress bar #991

@jancborchardt comments on file upload?

@butonic is this point already implemented:

When file versioning is enabled never show any dialog and always overwrite the file on the server. If the user made a mistake he can always get back the old version from the file history. (This is how dropbox does it)

@butonic status? THX

@DeepDiver1975 just a design forward. Nothing implemented. I don't think anybody is currently working on this.

Looks like at least the first checkbox is implemented ? 😄

@PVince81 nope, the current impementation is the fallback that is triggered when changes on the serverside have not yet made it to the browser UI (eg, upload via webdav). The first checkbox needs to be implemented here: https://github.com/owncloud/core/blob/master/apps/files/js/file-upload.js#L178 also see the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zbY6vr4DK4 that shows an initial conflict options dialog and afterwards the conflict dialog we currently have.

The first checkbox was implemented in 8.2.2, see #19417

Moving the rest to 9.1
