webdav-js

webdav-js

A simple way to administer a WebDAV filesystem from your browser.

The original aim for this project was to provide a bookmarklet for use when you want to administer a WebDAV server, without the need for using a third party application.

The application has since been rewritten to not rely on jQuery and use more modern methods and provide a single runtime file. Now that there's more separation between the interface code and the library code, I'd like to investigate using other frontend approaches to see which I prefer (and also to weigh up the differences between the currently available frameworks). There's still work to do around code separation andhopefully this will be something I can continue to work on (as time allows) I feel it's at least as stable as the previous version.

Tested in:

• Chrome
• Firefox
• Edge
• IE11 (I may drop support for this to reduce the package size in the future - unless anyone REALY needs it?)

Implementations

Bookmarklet:

javascript:["https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/dom111/webdav-js/assets/css/style-min.css","https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/dom111/webdav-js/src/webdav-min.js"].forEach((function(e,s){/css$/.test(e)?((s=document.createElement("link")).href=e,s.rel="stylesheet"):(s=document.createElement("script")).src=e,document.head.appendChild(s)}));

Apache:

There is also an example for how you could set up Apache in the examples/ directory (one using a locally hosted version of the library, and one using a CDN).

Think you have another example implementation that would be good to showcase? Fork this repository and make a PR!

Test the library

Included in the package is a docker-compose.yml file that can spawn an Alpine Linux Apache WebDAV server that uses the example Apache configuration so you can see the library in action if you don't have a WebDAV server at your disposal.

To start it, run:

docker-compose up

and navigate to http://localhost:8080/.

Contributing

If you feel this can be improved (I'm certain it can!), please feel free to fork it and submit a PR.

To start making changes, ensure you install all the dependencies:

yarn install # or npm install

After making changes, ensure you rebuild the application:

yarn build # or npm run build

Once your changes have compiled you can test using the Docker container.

Unit Tests

To run the unit tests:

docker-compose run --workdir=/src --rm test yarn test
