Sia-Nextcloud

This is the Nextcloud Sia storage backend implementation. It adds a 'Sia' option to the External Files Nextcloud app, allowing users to upload and download from a Sia node through the Nextcloud UI.

Requirements

• A siad instance must be running on the same system as the Nextcloud server.
  • The siad instance must be fully synchronized.
  • The siad instance must have a rental allowance set.

Video Tutorial

A slightly outdated video setup tutorial is available on YouTube:

• Integrating Sia, blockchain based storage, in Nextcloud

Note that the video is from a previous version of Sia-Nextcloud that did not require a "Renter data directory" parameter during configuration.
