File navigator
The Nuvolos Web UI has a file navigator to manage your files directly from the browser
When working on Nuvolos, typically you're using a computer program in a running Nuvolos application to interact with your files. However, there are some common file manipulation tasks that can be carried out directly via the Web UI:
Workspace vs Personal files
You can navigate both the Workspace files of the instance and your Personal files with the file navigator. Use the dropdown below the Upload button to switch:
Upload files
You can upload files from both your local computer, or from a publicly available web URL
Download files
You have multiple options to download files from Nuvolos to your local machine:
Download a single file
Download a single folder as a zip archive
Download up to 10 selected files or folders as a zip archive
Download all files in the current folder as a zip archive
Move, copy, rename, delete
You can move, copy, rename or delete files from the Nuvolos Web UI as well.
Extract (unzip) archives
You can extract (unzip) archives on the web UI:
Currently archives in the following formats are supported:
During extraction, a folder with the same name as the archive will be created automatically, and all contents are extracted there. If a file or folder with the same name already exists, a new folder name is generated to avoid overwrites.
Archives are extracted in the background, please look at the tasks view to check if it has completed.
The Web UI also supports manipulating the contents of certain files, which is described in the section Preview files.
Limitations
Soft links are not displayed in the Web UI's file navigator, but they still work in your Nuvolos applications.
