I recently stumbled upon
https://github.com/SrS2225a/custom_uploader which is a simple app to share files with hosting services. The app is available via FDroid
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.nyx.custom_uploader/It is very simple to configure a custom uploader for Hubzilla:
1. Press the cog button
2. Press the + button to add a new uploader
3. Select
POST
as method
4. Enter the upload URL
https://channelname:password@hub.example.com/api/z/1.0/item/update
5. Set Form Data Name to
media
Done.
Sharing a file with this uploader will result in a post to your default privacy group with the file attached or embeded if it's an image.
You could also add a custom text to your upload if you add the
body
upload parameter or even configure a privacy group to post to if you want.
Enjoy!
