# Nextcloud Client ☁️
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
This Ansible role installs and configures the Nextcloud desktop client on Arch Linux systems. It also manages symbolic links from commonly used user directories (like `Documents`, `Pictures`, etc.) to the respective folders inside a cloud-synced Nextcloud directory. This ensures user data is seamlessly integrated into the synchronized cloud folder.
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
Targeting user environments on Arch Linux (e.g., Manjaro), this role sets up the official `nextcloud-client` and dynamically links key directories from the user's home folder to Nextcloud. This makes it easy to use the Nextcloud client without needing to manually configure folders.
|
|
|
|
## Purpose
|
|
|
|
The purpose of this role is to automate the configuration of cloud-integrated user directories by ensuring that common folders like `Downloads`, `Music`, and `Workspaces` are transparently redirected into a centralized cloud structure. This makes it easier to maintain sys-bkp-friendly, cloud-ready setups for homelab and professional workflows.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- **Installs the Nextcloud Desktop Client:** Uses `pacman` via the `community.general.pacman` module.
|
|
- **Symbolic Linking of User Folders:** Maps home folders (e.g., `Documents`, `Videos`, `Workspaces`) into their Nextcloud equivalents.
|
|
- **Dynamic Cloud Directory Resolution:** Builds the target cloud directory path from user and cloud variables.
|
|
- **Dump Folder Mapping:** Links `InstantUpload` from the cloud to a `~/Dump` folder for quick camera/file access.
