File Browser ™️

[SpraxDev]

The File Browser ™️ - Probably the most important and most used part of Apollo.

// TODO: Find out why tf the formatting of the lists broke

• Great mobile support
• Can be viewed as list or tiles
  • list view shows individual icons for all file types (or at least a lot)
• Links, Virtual Files, Favorites are highlighted in some way
• Multiple files can be selected at once
• Breadcrumbs showing the current path the user is in
• Files can be Drag'n Dropped within Apollo (even using the breadcrumbs)
• Files can be uploaded using Drag'n Drop #45
• There needs to be a section where file information can be shown (right sidebar?)
  • Thumbnail and File name always shown
  • View can be switched between Info and Meta
    • Info: File size, File type, meta data saved in Apollo (e.g. File Tagging #31)
    • Meta: Information saved inside the file (author, GPS, etc.) or the file system
• Changes happening on the file system should automatically be synced to the web client
• Buttons at the top to
  • reload
  • upload
  • change view to list/tiles
  • (basically everything from the context menu)

• Context menu #39

• There should be some kind of navigation for
  • Storage (File browser)
  • Addon: Media library/view #32
  • Share Files #4
  • Trash can
  • Other (something like a spoiler or dropdown?)
    • Virtual File System #1
    • Other addon stuff
  • Maybe show the current free vs used storage space here?

• There needs to be some kind of input system (modal?)
  • Confirmation dialog (e.g. delete files)
  • input field (e.g. rename file or transcode video file)
