A Quick Action for macOS, using the native Quick Actions. You can right-click files and run this. It will upload the file to Nextcloud, create a Share link, and copy the Share link to your Clipboard. It will send a Notification when the link is ready. All without installing any apps.
You can download this repository to your Mac, or use the latest in releases.
You then must enter some details about your Nextcloud situation before using it. To do this, right-click the Workflow file → Open With → Automator (NOT Automator Installer, which is the default). In the Automator window, fill out the details in the requested "Get Specified Text" actions:
- Host: the URL of your Nextcloud instance, without the protocol (e.g. nextcloud.domain.me)
- Folder: an existing folder in your Nextcloud instance to upload the file to (e.g. Shortcuts)
- Username: your Nextcloud username
- Token: your app-specific password created just for this; to create one, go to Nextcloud → Settings → Devices & sessions and create a new app password
Do File → Save (or Command + S) to save.
Now double click the Workflow file to install it to your Mac.
To edit any of these parameters in the future, find the file in ~/Library/Services/Share through Nextcloud.workflow to edit it in the same way using Automator.
