Sync with a custom "cloud" endpoint about authpass

[hpoul]

fyi, created a new issue for webdav support: #42

Does this include webdav? Eg. NextCloud and such.

@TobiasDev this issue was actually meant for a really custom hosted "cloud" solution (ie cloud.authpass.app) which wouldn't need any form of authentication.. (simply pushing to the kdbx file to the server and making it available with a trivial sync, so users don't have to do any sort of setup)

But I did also think about webdav support.. do you have experience with nextcloud/owncloud? Is webdav the main way to sync data, or do they also have their own APIs (like dropbox/google drive)? Especially for the fdroid release this would probably be a important, since i've stripped out dropbox/google drive from the fdroid release.

I'm a NextCloud user, and as I understood it they have their own API (you can look at Joplin Notes, that has it) and WebDav. Personally I feel like webdav is the better way to go since that means it can be used by more than NextCloud servers, plus for the user that means they can control it better. Eg. Setting up the webdav to only sync to a specific folder, which means that the user don't have to give access to their while cloud storage (this helps to trust the app). :)

Once again, Joplin Notes has both and is an open-source app as well. It is really well integrated with NextCloud.
