One day several weeks ago, When I was poking among Nextcloud's github repos as usual, hoping to find some undocumented treasure, I stumbled upon this marvelous repo, ShareListing. It's an Nextcloud server app allows generating report of shares on the system by providing several occ cmdline tools. However, it also exposes OCS APIs to do the same things in code, which are exactly what I have been looking for. Together with some other not so well documented APIs, like generating and downloading preview files and several weeks of hard work, I present you LesPas 2.0, photo management and sharing for Nextcloud on Android platform.

Together with some other not so well documented APIs, like generating and downloading preview files and several weeks of hard work, I present you LesPas 2.0, photo management and sharing for Nextcloud on Android platform.
Last but not least, the check list to make things work: - Install latest LesPas 2.0, obviously - Install and enable Share Listing on your Nextcloud server - Set up groups on Nextcloud server and add users who wish to share LesPas albums to the group. User not belongs to any group can not download sharee list from server, this is a limitation of Nextcloud Sharee API - Optionally, but highly recommended for the sake of smooth user experience, setup Nextcloud Preview Generator app to automatically generate preview files of size 1024x1024, LesPas will use those files to populate shared album list on phone. I will write another post on how to properly set it up later - Optionally, setup a specific "shared_with_me" folder to house all the shares you received, otherwise Nextcloud will dump all the shares you received onto your root folder. This is done by adding line 'share_folder' => 'shared_with_me' into Nextcloud's config.php file. Refer to nextcloud document for detail.
