Owncloud Sync

Other

Verify new Google Drive files against OwnCloud, then email a report listing files that are missing or outdated on OwnCloud for manual sync decisions.

Install

openclaw skills install owncloud-sync

owncloud-sync

Purpose

This skill tracks files created or imported into Google Drive over a specified period (e.g., last 30 days), verifies their presence on the OwnCloud server, and generates a daily report emailed to the user. The report lists new Google Drive files and flags any missing or outdated files on OwnCloud, helping the user decide which files to copy.

Rationale

Google Drive serves as a convenient workspace to drop and edit files. This skill helps decide whether to push files to OwnCloud or to delete/retain them on Google Drive.

Prerequisites on OwnCloud Server

  • OwnCloud lacks a satisfactory built-in file search service, so an indexing service is required.
  • A Go program (allfiles-service.go) is provided at https://github.com/MikoBoulot/openclaw-skills.
  • Compile the Go program with:
    go build -ldflags=-s -w -o /usr/local/bin/allfiles-service allfiles-service.go
    
  • Configure credentials (BASIC_USER, BASIC_PASS) in the service definition to match the ALLFILES_USER and ALLFILES_PASS in the skill.
  • Install and enable the provided systemd service allfiles.service.
  • Place valid certificates (default location: /etc/allfiles/certs/).

Operating Mode

  • The script owncloud-sync.sh is located in .openclaw/workspace/skills/owncloud-sync/.
  • Run the script manually or on demand; it requires Zsh.

Configuration

  • The variables ALLFILES_URL, ALLFILES_USER, and ALLFILES_PASS in owncloud.json specify the OwnCloud indexing service credentials.
  • GOG_ACCOUNT (Google Drive account) and EMAIL_RECIPIENT (report recipient) are set within the script.
  • PERIOD_DAYS defines the date range for querying Google Drive, also set in the script.

Report

  • All files created or imported during the specified period are checked on OwnCloud.
  • The report indicates each files status: OK, MISSING, or NEED UPDATE (if OwnClouds version is older than Google Drives).
