Description

State:

  • Server (done since 28)
  • Android
  • iOS

Note: This depends on on moving Files to Vue https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/28063

Currently share view is very different from files view and does not allow all functions/has not all info.
On Android this is handled different: there we fetch shares list and retrieve all info for those shares, which takes a very long time.

As discussed with @jancborchardt goal would be

  • server
    • move share view to files view, to have same UX and it is basically a "filtered" file view
    • extend API to provide all info within one call to clients
  • clients
  • implement new API to speed up request
