Scripts, the acceptance suite among them, can now read a link's id,
role, password flag and expiry, and a folder's size and item count,
instead of parsing the human-readable lines.
A mirror folder whose files were all gone from this computer stayed in
error for good. The wipe guard rightly refuses to trash the whole folder
on Drive, but nothing got the folder out of that state: a queued switch
to on-demand waits for a pass that ends idle, and its push pass hit the
same guard. Only removing the folder from sync cleared the baseline that
made the empty folder read as "delete everything".
- The push pass for a switch to on-demand forgets the baseline rows of a
local copy that is gone in full instead of trashing them, so the
switch goes ahead and the mount shows what Drive has.
- New Request::ResetSyncFolder, `pdfs sync reset ID` and "Sync From
Scratch…" in a synced folder's menu clear a mirror folder's baseline
(and a queued switch to on-demand, whose push pass would upload a
duplicate of every file). The next pass compares both sides as on the
first sync: one-sided files are copied across, files that differ keep
both versions, nothing is deleted.
- The wipe guards' messages name the reset; restore logs why it skipped
a folder.
Two simulations cover it. The on-demand one failed in exactly the
reported state (mirror, pending ondemand, error) before the fix.
All 8 catalogs translated.
The share dialog gets Link settings under an existing link: role, password
and expiry apply at once and keep the URL. The daemon fills in the options a
change keeps from the link as it stands, and refuses to keep a password it
cannot read rather than dropping it. pdfs public-link update does the same
from a terminal, and pdfs members shows the expiry.
Details shows a folder's size and item count as Proton Drive counts it,
trash included, and pdfs du prints it. Both are refused offline and for a
folder that is not on Drive yet.
Needs proton-drive-rs with update_public_link, get_folder_size and
PublicLink::custom_password.
`pdfs copy PATH... NEW_PARENT` sends a new control request, Copy, which
copies a file with its content or a folder with its subtree on Proton
Drive through proton-drive-rs's copy_node. Nothing is downloaded or
uploaded. A name already taken in the destination gets the next free
" (n)" suffix through get_available_name.
A copy cannot wait in the queue, because Drive copies what it holds.
So it is refused offline, and while the mount still owes Drive part of
the node: a local placeholder, a queued op, unsaved writes, or, for a
folder, any queued op at all. Local-first does not change this.
DriveApi gains copy_node and get_available_name, and the fake drive
copies subtrees, so a FUSE sim test covers the copy, the suffix, the
folder subtree and both refusals. The activity feed logs a new Copy
kind, translated in every catalog.
Needs the proton-drive-rs release that adds copy_node; until then, build
with a [patch.crates-io] pointing at proton-sdk-rs.
- scripts/publish-wiki.sh publishes every page listed in SECTIONS, copies
images, writes a sectioned sidebar and footer, and removes stale pages.
--check fails on links to missing files or headings and on docs pages
that are neither published nor excluded.
- New wiki.yml runs the check on pull requests and pushes to main, and
publishes when release.yml calls it or when started by hand.
- Split USER_GUIDE.md into topic pages (files, synced folders, photos,
sharing, computers, launcher and tray); add Getting started and FAQ.
- Make the COPR repository the main Fedora path, with update and
uninstall steps for every package type.
- Fix the stale CAPTCHA note in CLI.md, document pdfs unlock and lock,
and drop the broken AGENTS.md link from CONTRIBUTING.md.
When the session is stored and unlocked but the daemon does not answer,
pdfs diagnose asks Proton for a key report and prints a Keys section:
each account key, each address key and the account key its token is
for, and the address key the My Files share is encrypted to. It holds
key IDs only, so it can be posted in an issue.
Refs #40
Add B248 to B252 to the bug ledger, the shared-device feature and schema 44
to the 3.5.0 changelog, and describe the join flow, per-machine profiles,
conflict copy names and the mirror's multi-writer rules in the user guide,
recovery guide, CLI and configuration references and the architecture notes.
Logout only deleted the keyring entry, so the session's tokens stayed
valid on Proton's side. It now ends the session first (DELETE auth/v4,
bounded to 10 s) and signs out locally either way. `pdfs logout` says
when Proton could not be reached (B233).
The daemon has kept recursive folder pins for a long time, but the app
offered "Available offline" for files only. The context menu, the
details pane and the selection bar now offer it for folders too, and a
pinned folder carries the offline badge in the browser and the launcher.
A folder pin used to download the whole subtree inside the control
request, so a large folder outlasted the client's 120 s read timeout,
and every pinned file was read into memory before it was cached. The
daemon now records the pin, answers at once and downloads on a
background thread as a job the tray and the app show, stopping when the
folder is unpinned or the daemon stops. Pins of files and folders both
go through fetch_content, which streams to disk and skips fresh blobs.
A folder pin is refused while offline instead of looking kept.
A file kept only because a folder above it is pinned has no pin of its
own, and unpinning it silently did nothing. ListDir now reports
pinned_by_folder; the app shows such an entry as available offline with
the toggle greyed out, and the daemon refuses the unpin with a message
naming the folder. Unpinning a folder no longer evicts files that are
pinned on their own.
Requested on Reddit.
A user switching from a Windows PC to Linux had two half answers:
adopting the old device makes this machine back up as it, and restoring
its folders keeps them in the old device's tree. Neither puts the data
under this machine's own device.
Device roots are separate shares on the main volume, so each top-level
folder of the other device can move under this device's root in one
server-side move. Nothing is uploaded again, and the other device stays
registered, without those folders.
- core: `Request::MigrateDevice { uid }` and
`Db::sync_folder_set_share`
- fuse: `Core::migrate_device` moves every folder, suffixes a name
already taken here with the other device's name, keeps going past a
failed folder, and re-points sync folders that already tracked a
moved folder at the new share
- cli: `pdfs devices migrate UID [--yes]` confirms, moves, then runs
the ordinary restore picker
- gui: "Move to This Computer…" on another computer's row, followed by
the restore picker
- i18n: translate the new strings in every catalog
- docs: CLI.md, USER_GUIDE.md, RECOVERY.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, changelog
The user guide said only writes were queued. Since 3.0.0 creating,
renaming and deleting through the mount return at once too, and changes
Drive refuses become sync issues. Add a section on changes waiting for
Proton Drive: retry, export, discard, and the two cases that land under
another name or place instead of failing.
Troubleshooting covers changes that have not reached other devices yet,
`pdfs sync issues` and the local_first fallback, and names the real
error for symlinks and hard links (EPERM, not EOPNOTSUPP). CONFIGURATION
lists MemoryHigh and the test variables; CLI notes that `sync export`
takes a folder.
A change Drive will not take could be exported or retried, never let go
of. The Sync page's Discard button (with a confirmation) and
`pdfs sync discard <id>` drop it: a node made here goes, as if deleted
before it was sent; a node Drive has goes back to what Drive has, under
the same inode, with every change queued on it, while what is queued
below it stays. A change on the wire or an open file is refused.
The FUSE acceptance suite now runs on the signed-in account by default and
cleans up after itself; its first live runs found three daemon bugs.
- B101: a pwrite past EOF now authors the hole it leaves, so truncated bytes
no longer come back from the base. A write attached to a create while that
create uploads becomes a revision of the real uid instead of being dropped.
- B102: removing a folder drops the queued revisions of files below it, found
through the node tree, with their blobs and in-flight uploads. `pdfs rm`
now drops queued ops too.
- B103: each server call of a trash refresh times out after 120 s, so one hung
call can no longer freeze the trash listing until restart.
Acceptance suite: account mode with a manifest, lock and reaper; cleanup by
uid; queued ops naming a test root count as leftovers; new edge-case,
throughput and B100/B101 cases; the wide-directory case is split from the
deep tree and gets a doubled budget. Adds `pdfs trash --json`.
- A mirror download first copies the file out of the content cache when the
same revision is cached whole or block by block, so moving a file out of an
on-demand folder into a mirror costs no traffic for what was already read.
- `pdfs move a b c DEST` moves every source, reports each failure and exits
non-zero if any failed.
- Mirror-to-mirror moves rename with RENAME_NOREPLACE, so a name that
appeared at the destination after the check is never overwritten.
- The local copy a move out of a mirror drops is checked again just before
it is deleted; anything written into it meanwhile keeps the copy and is
uploaded as new by the next pass.
A move request with two absolute paths is resolved against every
location (My files, on-demand and mirror synced folders) and made as a
server-side move_node. The local side is levelled afterwards: mounts
forget and re-list, a mirror folder renames its copy and baseline along
or drops the copy once Drive holds it.
Anything only this disk holds is refused up front: queued ops, open
writes, unsynced or ignored mirror files and symlinks. The GUI Move
dialog gains a top-level list of locations.
Split the README into a short front page and task-oriented pages under
docs/: installation, user guide, CLI reference, configuration and
troubleshooting, with an index in docs/README.md. Rewrite RECOVERY.md
around Continue This Backup Here and Restore Folders, and DEVELOPMENT.md
around running, debugging and releasing from source.
Bring ARCHITECTURE.md up to date with the read path, push events, the
thread map, conflict copies and the machine profile, and move the feature
design notes there. Collect planned work in ROADMAP.md. Link the threat
model from SECURITY.md and the translation rules from CONTRIBUTING.md.
Add scripts/publish-wiki.sh, which mirrors the user pages to the GitHub
wiki with rewritten links and only pushes with --push.
