Are you talking about the faOtools module ?
Do you know is there is a tool to synchronize Odoo calendar with NextCloud (instead of Google) ?

Hi Johan,

i think the module you are referring is not Open Source (although in the cases i used  it, it was working mostly fine) and i also do agree that we should not turn Odoo into something it should be. Nextcloud, while being an pretty solid and mature Open Source cloud tool, isn't a full blown document management system and for now doesn't pretend to be either. Besides that i thing "External Storage" captures quite a few additional use cases that are a way beyond the traditional DMS requirements. I think the only think that is probably missing is a External Storage connector in the OCA space that connects Odoo and Nextcloud via the NC API instead of using only the WebDav standard.

Dear,

 

In the app store there is an odoo / Nextcloud connector that is working fine. With this connector you have all you want. In Nextcloud you can easily share the documents you want with anyone you want, the way you want it. And the connector is easy to set up an use. Maybe there could be an extra method in it to rename the documents so that they are better searchable outside odoo. But it seems a little crazy to develop something as a full grown DMS when with Nextcloud ( and others ) there are already splendid, mature options that are fully open source, use postgres as their database and have an API that can be connected to from python -)

 

With kind regards,

 

Van Hirtum Johan

I for my part would definitely in favor of that! I often thought about such a feature. Maybe we can discuss the future during OCA days as suggested.

We needed someone to test it. At the end this is something that joins storage and dms, so it is agnostic. Shall I reopen the PR?

Enric,
 
this is fantastic news! OCA is incredible. Can you share your thoughts on what 
needs to be finished? Are there any caveats?
 
Thank you a lot!
 
 Radovan
