Here is an other post of my series about
WebDAV & CO .
In the last posts we learn how to mount the Hubzilla/streams cloud by WebDAV to our desktop or phone.
Now if we would have the option to auto-sync folders into or from the Hubzilla/streams cloud this would gives us even more abilities and extended usability.
For auto-sync folders form an android phone you can try RoundSync
https://github.com/newhinton/Round-Sync/releases https://f-droid.org/de/packages/de.felixnuesse.extract/The project builds on rclone and is forked from RXC
https://github.com/x0b/rcx https://f-droid.org/packages/io.github.x0b.rcx/RXC is also a very useful app but it is lacking the auto-sync function.
After you set up the WebDAV remote connection in RoundSync you can add tasks and timer for triggering the different tasks - i love it.

On your desktop and if you are on Linux you can have a look at Celeste
https://github.com/hwittenborn/celeste https://flathub.org/apps/com.hunterwittenborn.CelesteFirst set up the WebDAV connection and add to the URL also a folder in your cloud if you like

then set up the local folder like:

Celeste works very well - the downside is that we can´t set a time-period for syncing... when Celeste is running sync will start every 2 second...
Auto-sync folders can be very useful for a lot of things, not just for backups.
You may post and tell us about the use cases you come up with.
I use it to save my photo collection of images i find in the web to a HZ photo album. Also edited notes from Joplin can be shared this way automatically.
In the next post i will show an Android audio player which can play your privat music /audio file collection from your WebDAV streaming cloud.
