WebDAV storage

When you register an account on Outmo.de, you will automatically also get access to a small WebDAV and Nextcloud compatible cloud storage. Please note that this is only a file-storage and we do not plan to add CalDAV or CardDAV.

For now we limit the storage space to 100mb to prevent people from using our servers as a photo back-up location.

The small space it however still very useful for syncing notes and bookmarks between devices and storing smaller files for sharing them online. We can manually increase this space upon request, but will likely only do so for contributors (see below).

We use Karadav for providing this WebDAV storage. It comes with a basic but fully functional web-interface that you can access on:

https://webdav.outmo.de

This address can also be used in many WebDAV compatible apps, although sometimes they will require adding the full path like this: https://webdav.outmo.de/files/yourusername

Tested apps: Floccus, Orgzly, Nextcloud and many more.

Known issues:  external JS WebDAV clients with CORS problems.

Filestash file browser

The built in file explorer of KaraDAV is rather barebones, thus we added a much nicer Filestash UI that you can access on https://files.outmo.de. There you can preview images, edit text files (with Org-mode support) and also share them with others not registered on Outmo.de.

ONLYOFFICE editor suite integration

We are currently working on adding an ONLYOFFICE editor suite integration to our WebDAV offer. The easiest will be to access it through the Filestash web-interface, but WOPI integration is also supported by KaraDAV.

Increasing storage space

We plan to offer the option to increase the storage space to 1GB for monthly contributors soon. Higher amounts are also possible, but we need to evaluate upgrading the total bandwidth of our server connection first.
