tyitle: 'Desktop sync client'
visible: true
---
Using the Nexcloud desktop client provides a way to sync your files stored in your Disroot cloud with a local folder in your desktop.<br>
Meaning you can access/add/remove/edit the files in your Disroot account in your desktop without needing to log to your account via
browser.
----------
Table of contents:
[1. Install Nexcloud](#install)
[2. Add new account](#addacc)
[3. General options](#option)
[4. Sharing From Your Desktop](#share)
----------
**1 - Install Nexcloud**<a name="install"></a>
If you don't have Nextcloud installed in your desktop yet you can see how to install it [here](https://nextcloud.com/install/#install-clients).
For users of ubuntu or ubuntu based distros you can find better detailed instructions [here](https://www.c-rieger.de/how-to-install-nextcloud-desktop-client-for-ubuntu/).
Or compile from source as described [here](https://forum.disroot.org/t/cloud-howto-install-nextcloud-desktop-client-in-linux/636).
**2 - Add a new account**<a name="addacc"></a>
The first time you run Nextcloud client you will be directly greeted with account setup. In the first step you need to write the Disroot cloud domain address to connect to the your cloud.
The address is **https://cloud.disroot.org**. Then press "next".
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/307889bf06b6c8bf18dcb8bb8b7ed4af13a2d786.png" width="606" height="392">
Next you will be asked for your Disroot account credentials
Username: your Disroot username
Password: your Disroot account password
Then press "next"
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/98deaa4554e7e6fe89e267503ae8d6c04851bdd2.png" width="606" height="392">
If your credentials are correct, your Nexcloud client will present some local folder options.
Nextcloud will create a local folder named "Nexcloud" to where your files will be downloaded and from where you can sync them. And will sync all the folders in your Disroot cloud.
If you want to keep these default options then just press **"connect"**
If you want to change these options them see the next steps
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/389b57cf9f858e01ea1965b3dc27649e2b5e08aa.png" width="606" height="409">
To change the sync options, in the previous panel select **"choose what to sync"**
You will be prompted a panel where you can choose with a checkbox what folder or sub-folders to sync or nor, at the end press ok.
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/add3624d7046a2645f2c4d6c5de5f7f32116376b.png" width="409" height="500">
To change the local folder to which your files are synced select the option **/home/yourusername/Nexcloud**
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/57a23c1bae4e7c04c5b6f817b1e90043be0bf767.png" width="606" height="409">
And a promt will show up for you to select the folder you want to choose, as the local folder. At the end press **"choose"**
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/b6fbb9a3186b93e7a2e50c6fe058bfe78a8e2233.png" width="644" height="452">
After your done with your settings press **"connect"**
And then **finish**
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/c997b253faa809a1fd1df9e08c2baada12e68903.png" width="606" height="487">
<p>After this, Nexcloud will star to sync the files to your local folder and you will see the nexcloud logo on your menu bar indicating that it's synchronizing </p>
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/1d07dac70b0b91f0634843d82302b34df8c7e1d5.png" width="63" height="40">
Once it's finished synchronizing the logo will change to green
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/31c2dbe487f3d8c533e26248959ea676055e3d31.png" width="61" height="29">
An then you can see the files from your Disroot cloud in your local folder.
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/2866fc0fea00afa35565d4e3daae81b71671883f.png" width="690" height="347">
Any file you edit in this folder (.txt, spreadsheet, word) will be altered in your Disroot cloud. Any files you remove or add will be removed or added in your Disroot cloud.
The reverse also applies, any file you change in your cloud will be changed in your local folder
(unless you opted by not synchronizing that particular file or folder)
## **3 - General options**<a name="option"></a>
You can edit the general options of you Nexcloud client by pressing the icon in the menu bar
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/b1b1ed850b3fcebb2448e0702a7600e53d78d693.png" width="61" height="29">
In this panel you will see on the top left 4 buttons:
1 - Your account
2 - Activities
3 - General
4 - Network
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/229168076008644c3e6ce335db2c10ce411d231b.png" width="605" height="500">
In Your account you can:
1 - see the status of any synchronization
2 - choose what folders to sync by clicking in the checkbox option
3 - confirm the signature of the ssl keys by pressing the padlock button
In the account button you can remove your account from the desktop client and also add other cloud account's from other services that use the Nextcloud server, for example a home server that uses nextcloud.
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/3a2dfdd4c39af4b305a655a7ec2ebeb60d10b41d.png" width="605" height="500">
If you want to add another account, after pressing **"add new"** you will asked to repeat the process in the point 1 of this tutorial for this new account.
**WARNING:** IF YOU **ADD A SECOND ACCOUNT** YOU WILL **NEED TO CREATE A SECOND LOCAL FOLDER FOR THIS SECOND ACCOUNT AND DIRECT THE NEW ACCOUNT TO THIS SECOND LOCAL FOLDER.**
**IF YOU USE THE SAME FOLDER THE CONTENTS OF THE FIRST ACCOUNT WILL BE ERASED AND REPLACED BY THE CONTENTS OF THE SECOND ACCOUNT**
After you add a second account your panel you can now see both accounts in the panel. And select a specific account
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/5fa2d55b8c7ba1b58bb1059f503548798dd235fe.png" width="605" height="500">

In the **General** panel you can:
1 - Set the limit for files sizes that you download to you local folder
2 - Set to show notifications on your desktop
3 - Launch this panel when the system starts
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/f09fe06b31f4030d4fc5602aa50043016404b9ea.png" width="605" height="500">
In the **Network** panel you can:
1 - configure your nextcloud desktop client for your proxy setting (if you are using a proxy)
2 - set maximum download and upload bandwith (can be use full if your bandwith is limited)
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/9c6dc1aa4321fd51f9cdb297f48827e898826865.png" width="605" height="500">
## **4 - Sharing From Your Desktop**<a name="share"></a>
If you are using Windows or MacOS it's possible to create share links directly from the local folder of a file or sub-folder to send by email to someone else. By right clicking on the file/or folder
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/7aadfce271e474cce2490be3dc2a709ce25c4638.png" width="342" height="254">
And you will be presented with the same sharing options as if you where accessing your files in your Disroot account using a browser.
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/45a25c04b17c85c85c24d2263ff6f27db89528a2.png" width="416" height="428">
In linux this feature does not exist yet for the Nextcloud desktop client.
But it exists in the onwcloud desktop client if you are using the nautilus file manager, you will need to install owncloud-client-nautilus.

tyitle: 'GNOME - Desktop Integration'
visible: true
---
**This tutorial can be used to integrate disroot cloud with Gnome, Mate, Unity, xfce and KDE desktop environments. In this tutorial we use mostly Gnome. The exception is when talking about KDE.**
----------
Gnome is a very popular, slick, modern and easy to use graphical desktop environment for Linux. It's my desktop of choice and it is mainly due to it's awesome integration with Disroot's cloud services.
Integration with desktop environment means, you no longer need to login to disroots cloud via the browser, every time you need to add or lookup information. It means everything you need is available to you directly from your desktop. Furthermore it makes it look and feel unified with all other apps you use while you work. It's definitely **THE** way to get things done.
In this tutorial I would like to show you how easy and handy it is to integrate your cloud on your computer. Setup procedure should take no longer then few minutes of your time.
----------

##Set Online accounts<a name="onlineaccounts"></a>
<br>
**NOTE: The following method doesn’t work in KDE. The online accounts app in KDE doesn't have the owncloud/nextcloud option. Files and email have to be set up apart from contacts, calendar, tasks. You can see how to setup KAddressBook in the latter part of this section because it covers the setup for contacts, calendar, tasks.**
In order to get up and running, all you need to do is:
- Go to Gnome **Settings** (eg. type settings in the dashboard search)
- Open **"Online Accounts"**
- Select **"Owncloud"**
- Follow instructions to fill in all your credentials:
- **Address:** https://cloud.disroot.org
- **Username:** *yourusername*
- **Password:** *your_super_secret_password*
If you did that correctly now you can choose which aspects of the cloud you want to integrate. You can switch them on and off at any time depending on your use case. I choose to integrate it all.
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/8a737eeca1f649ef1af67a193c007c163df152b9.gif
<br>
In KDE, we need to first setup an account in the app Kaddressbook.
<br>
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/fb3dfc54b96627309f52634e931aba4b6e417943.png
<br>
* In order to set it up all you need to do is:
* Go to Kaddressbook
* Select File > New > Add Address Book
* Select DAV Groupware resource
* Follow instructions to fill in all your credentials:
* **Username:** _yourusername_
* **Password:** _your_super_secret_password_
* In the option "select one of these servers", select: **owncloud**
* Host: place the address [cloud.disroot.org](http://https:cloud.disroot.org)
* Installation path: leave it blank
* Select the option: "use secure connection"
* Press:
* Next
* Test connection
* And if the connection checked ok, press finish
After this you need to manually add the URL links for contacts and calendars, in the general settings.
<br>
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/5cf5304bc1fa19cfb4f6f8d85bde59ccac4a7588.gif
<br>
The general settings will automatically appear after you have pressed finish.
Then you need to:
* Select CalDAV and edit
* Replace the remote URL, with the URL of your disroot calendar: https://cloud.disroot.org/remote.php/dav/calendars/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_CALENDARS/
* Press "Fetch" and then "Ok"
* Select CardDAV and edit
* Replace the remote URL, with the URL of your disroot contacts: https://cloud.disroot.org/remote.php/dav/addressbooks/users/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_ADDRESS_BOOK/
* Press "Fetch" and then "Ok"
You can find the correct URL in your disroot calendar and contacts apps share options
In the general settings you can also:
* Change the name of the general display
* Remove the time retrieval limits on calendars so it will sync all your events
<br>

##Calendar<a name="calendar"></a>
<br>
One of the useful features is calendar. You will notice that your calendars are already integrated if you press on the **current time** in your top bar on the desktop. A popup window with a calendar will automatically display all the events from your disroot's cloud account. You will of course receive all notifications on upcoming events as well.
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/cb8f61b5041e096b1e77d96ca4e7b7436be611c8.gif
In order to add/edit/remove events or have better overview on all your calendars, I suggest installing Gnome Calendar app.
Depending on your operating system you should search for it in your "Software" application (linux app store).
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/e0d0d841f730f8b01991536389972096dcfdea4a.png" width="690" height="79">
Once you get it installed, you'll notice your calendars are already integrated thanks to the global "Online Accounts" you set up earlier. The application is very simple, yet complete in all the features you need. You can select which calendars you would like to see and which ones to disable (in case you have numerous calendars). You can create/modify/delete events, and they'll be all synchronized with disroot cloud, which means also with all your devices connected to it.
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/f121dbafea964047c7fdacf5f67c847b3433efd1.gif
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/8da8c6195a34bb1624b0be0ea6a51c915f14bce6.gif
In KDE you can use the KOrganizer app, it has both calendar and tasks.
<br>
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/58d49e4a31e547b859b17e28c34feb8e6fe57699.png" width="276" height="51">
<br>
Your events will already be synchronized /adding/removing/editing events is very similar to the Calendar app described before, any changes will be synchronized with your disroot calendar.
<br>
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/345344e10f000cd66b6565dc3940103befb1c3da.gif
<br>
----------
##Files<a name="files"></a>
<br>
If you open your "Files" app you will notice there is a new network location that points to your disroot account. That's right. You can easily, add/remove/copy/modify files on your cloud without a need to download them onto your device or login via web-browser. This is very different then using "nextcloud client app", as it does not sync the content of the cloud files to your computer. **Remember you are working directly on your cloud storage** (whatever you change, affects your cloud storage Immediately).
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/85cbc343eb33c6c54456ea9dcfe47e8580a74839.png" width="590" height="347">
In KDE, you need to add a network folder to access your disroot files remotely. Go to your start menu select "Computer" <img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/198a2a2e92926893bd0e4540b2eee9577ce9c616.png" width="98" height="85"> and then "Network" <img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/aeede93aac38004e4555147cd1647e20b9ccd45a.png" width="162" height="48">
After that:
* Select "Add Network Folder"
* Select "WebFolder Webdav"
* Follow the instructions to fill your credentials:
* **Name:** the name you want to give to the folder
* **User:** _your disroot username_
* **Server:** [cloud.disroot.org](https://cloud.disroot.org)
* **Folder:**/remote.php/dav/files/YOUR_DISROOT_USERNAME/
* Select the checkbox for "Use encryption"
* Hit "Save and Connect"
* You will be asked for your password,
<br>
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/5f735c7b26c502cd726653bbccf612770b68b795.gif
<br>
After that you can look in your files app in "network" for your disroot files. Like mentioned before:
> You can easily, add/remove/copy/modify files on your cloud without a need to download them onto your device or login via web-browser. This is very different then using "nextcloud client app", as it does not sync the content of the cloud files to your computer. **Remember you are working directly on your cloud storage** (whatever you change, affects your cloud storage Immediately).
----------
##Tasks<a name="tasks"></a>
<br>
Tasks is very handy tool to organize your work. Thanks to integrations you no longer need to login via browser to make use of them. Just navigate to "Software" application (app store, or any other means you use to install software) and look for "GNOME To Do" application.
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/5b58297de15c4d324d85660630b4752eac6d261f.png" width="690" height="75">
Just like with Calendars, you will see that all your tasks are automatically synchronized. You can now easily add new tasks, deadlines, descriptions, add notes, priority as well as organize them in main and related task tree. The application is pretty intuitive and easy to use.
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/afb94958a83e7ace850418d9b2c122a448097fbf.gif
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/6552fc44ee66e163d018c9f51ff561d19eae8a44.gif
In KDE you can use the KOrganizer app, it also has task included. Like in with the calendar option, your tasks will already be synchronized. You can easily add/edit/remove tasks and set deadlines.
<br>
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/ebbc0797da1d6fc57c433764a8c5d4dea369a936.gif
----------
##Contacts <a name="contacts"></a>
<br>
Getting contact integration is as easy as everything you did so far. Just follow the same pattern. First get "Contacts" application in case you don't have it installed by default.
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/d1aa4ee77e5a105a6c0f6d1432781cea61e54b87.png" width="690" height="79">
Next you need to switch your default address book to the one provided by dirstoot cloud.
Just select "Change Address Book" from the Contact app menu. Once you select your disroot account as the current one, all your contacts will be synced to your computer. All new contacts or any modification will be synced back to your disroot cloud and all the devices connected to it.
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/a57d27723c6331e63562768820723176154d0b44.gif
In KDE you can use your KAddressBook <img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/e54675605e2e9168aa51f77fffdc97c4ce334a54.png" width="222" height="49"> to organize your contacts, the working principals are identical to the "Contacts" app described before.
<br>
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/45732239d5ae1578d50da9dfab0c65394bb595a1.gif
<br>
----------
##Email<a name="email"></a>
<br>
If you never wored with email desktop client and always used webapp to access your email you simply do it wrong! Despite the trend in which big corporations try to convince you otherwise, destkop clients give you integration with your work you always missed. The most popular open source email client is Thunderbird (setup is covered in [this](https://forum.disroot.org/t/email-how-to-setup-email-clients/213#Thunderbird) tutorial). If you don't like Thunderbird and would like to integrate your Email into Gnome, there is also an easy solution for that. Open again your "Gnome Settings" and click on "Online Accounts". Now you need to scroll all the way down to the "other" option and choose for it. Next, select IMAP Account. At this stage you will be asked several questions regarding your account and mail server setup. Just follow the list below.
**email address:** *<your_username>*@disroot.org
**Name:** A name for your account (can be anything)
**IMAP Settings:**
**IMAP Server:** disroot.org
**Username:** *your disroot username*
**Password:** *your disroot password*
**encryption:** SSL On dedicated port
**SMTP Settings:**
**SMTP Server:** disroot.org
**Username:** *your disroot username*
**Password:** *your disroot password*
**encryption:** STARTTLS after connecting
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/17aab444320a78f5f53b677d89c1d67d8ece7b98.gif
Now that you have your email setup and integrated with your desktop, you can fire up "Evolution" Mail client and enjoy all your emails, calendars, tasks, and contacts integrated in one application. Magic.. :)
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/14912cef4edbfc576f01ec24b8ee1beee090cdd9.png
As for KDE, again if you don't want to use Thunderbird, you can integrate your emails in KDE desktop, by using KMail<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/38ea7e5cf05f1f91ca0652f5f2722c236dda91b6.png" width="170" height="49">
The setup credentials are the same as described before. After you open KMail, go to:
* Settings
* Configure KMail
* Accounts
You need to configure both receiving (IMAP or POP3) and sending (SMTP) accounts
For IMAP or POP3 go to:
* Receiving
* Add
* Select IMAP or POP3
* Fill the credentials
For SMTP go to:
* Sending
* Add
* SMTP
* Fill the credentials
----------
##News<a name="news"></a>
News app on disroot cloud let's you aggregate all the new posts of your favourite website using RSS Feed, and sync it with all your devices. It comes extra handy when you want to stay on top of news that interest you. Most of the websites offer RSS feeds.Usually you can find them via this <img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/a286215a375767170da00fba7fdb227f659163a2.png" width="20" height="20"> icon, or by typing address similar to https://disroot.org/feed
Besides traditional web app and mobile app we can easily integrate News with your desktop. Just like all the previous app integrations in this tutorial, first step is to install appropriate software. The RSS Feed application that integrates with disroot cloud is **"FeedReader"**, which should be available in your distributions "Software" center (app store), if it isn't then you can look for instructions on how to install it [here](https://github.com/jangernert/feedreader).
Once you get it up and running, all you need to do is fill in your disroot credentials, and you are ready to go.
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/b40968c389c89084c52e6a4ae51a9fc1139ea76d.gif
Once your account is setup, initial synchronization will take place. All your currently subscribed feeds will be synced to your desktop. Just like on mobile or webapp you can now read latest news, add / remove feeds, categorize them etc. Everything will be synced back to your cloud account. The app checks for new posts in the background and sends you desktop notification even if the app itself is closed, so you won't missout on anything.
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/1c633eecb4cf5c896f34d40acc826ef643155c98.gif
<br>
In KDE you can also use **"FeedReader"**, but it's not in Kubuntu "Software Center", you need to install it via PPA. You can see how to do it [here](https://github.com/jangernert/feedreader), in the "ElementaryOS/Ubuntu" section

- **Password:** *your_super_secret_password*
If you did that correctly now you can choose which aspects of the cloud you want to integrate. You can switch them on and off at any time depending on your use case. I choose to integrate it all.

In KDE, we need to first setup an account in the app Kaddressbook.
<br>
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/fb3dfc54b96627309f52634e931aba4b6e417943.png
<br>
* In order to set it up all you need to do is:
* Go to Kaddressbook
* Select File > New > Add Address Book
* Select DAV Groupware resource
* Follow instructions to fill in all your credentials:
* **Username:** _yourusername_
* **Password:** _your_super_secret_password_
* In the option "select one of these servers", select: **owncloud**
* Host: place the address [cloud.disroot.org](http://https:cloud.disroot.org)
* Installation path: leave it blank
* Select the option: "use secure connection"
* Press:
* Next
* Test connection
* And if the connection checked ok, press finish
After this you need to manually add the URL links for contacts and calendars, in the general settings.
<br>
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/5cf5304bc1fa19cfb4f6f8d85bde59ccac4a7588.gif
<br>
The general settings will automatically appear after you have pressed finish.
Then you need to:
* Select CalDAV and edit
* Replace the remote URL, with the URL of your disroot calendar: https://cloud.disroot.org/remote.php/dav/calendars/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_CALENDARS/
* Press "Fetch" and then "Ok"
* Select CardDAV and edit
* Replace the remote URL, with the URL of your disroot contacts: https://cloud.disroot.org/remote.php/dav/addressbooks/users/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_ADDRESS_BOOK/
* Press "Fetch" and then "Ok"
You can find the correct URL in your disroot calendar and contacts apps share options
In the general settings you can also:
* Change the name of the general display
* Remove the time retrieval limits on calendars so it will sync all your events

##Calendar<a name="calendar"></a>
<br>
One of the useful features is calendar. You will notice that your calendars are already integrated if you press on the **current time** in your top bar on the desktop. A popup window with a calendar will automatically display all the events from your disroot's cloud account. You will of course receive all notifications on upcoming events as well.
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/cb8f61b5041e096b1e77d96ca4e7b7436be611c8.gif
In order to add/edit/remove events or have better overview on all your calendars, I suggest installing Gnome Calendar app.
Depending on your operating system you should search for it in your "Software" application (linux app store).
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/e0d0d841f730f8b01991536389972096dcfdea4a.png" width="690" height="79">
Once you get it installed, you'll notice your calendars are already integrated thanks to the global "Online Accounts" you set up earlier. The application is very simple, yet complete in all the features you need. You can select which calendars you would like to see and which ones to disable (in case you have numerous calendars). You can create/modify/delete events, and they'll be all synchronized with disroot cloud, which means also with all your devices connected to it.
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/f121dbafea964047c7fdacf5f67c847b3433efd1.gif
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/8da8c6195a34bb1624b0be0ea6a51c915f14bce6.gif
In KDE you can use the KOrganizer app, it has both calendar and tasks.
<br>
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/58d49e4a31e547b859b17e28c34feb8e6fe57699.png" width="276" height="51">
<br>
Your events will already be synchronized /adding/removing/editing events is very similar to the Calendar app described before, any changes will be synchronized with your disroot calendar.
<br>
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/345344e10f000cd66b6565dc3940103befb1c3da.gif
<br>
----------
##Files<a name="files"></a>
<br>
If you open your "Files" app you will notice there is a new network location that points to your disroot account. That's right. You can easily, add/remove/copy/modify files on your cloud without a need to download them onto your device or login via web-browser. This is very different then using "nextcloud client app", as it does not sync the content of the cloud files to your computer. **Remember you are working directly on your cloud storage** (whatever you change, affects your cloud storage Immediately).
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/85cbc343eb33c6c54456ea9dcfe47e8580a74839.png" width="590" height="347">
In KDE, you need to add a network folder to access your disroot files remotely. Go to your start menu select "Computer" <img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/198a2a2e92926893bd0e4540b2eee9577ce9c616.png" width="98" height="85"> and then "Network" <img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/aeede93aac38004e4555147cd1647e20b9ccd45a.png" width="162" height="48">
After that:
* Select "Add Network Folder"
* Select "WebFolder Webdav"
* Follow the instructions to fill your credentials:
* **Name:** the name you want to give to the folder
* **User:** _your disroot username_
* **Server:** [cloud.disroot.org](https://cloud.disroot.org)
* **Folder:**/remote.php/dav/files/YOUR_DISROOT_USERNAME/
* Select the checkbox for "Use encryption"
* Hit "Save and Connect"
* You will be asked for your password,
<br>
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/5f735c7b26c502cd726653bbccf612770b68b795.gif
<br>
After that you can look in your files app in "network" for your disroot files. Like mentioned before:
> You can easily, add/remove/copy/modify files on your cloud without a need to download them onto your device or login via web-browser. This is very different then using "nextcloud client app", as it does not sync the content of the cloud files to your computer. **Remember you are working directly on your cloud storage** (whatever you change, affects your cloud storage Immediately).
----------
##Tasks<a name="tasks"></a>
<br>
Tasks is very handy tool to organize your work. Thanks to integrations you no longer need to login via browser to make use of them. Just navigate to "Software" application (app store, or any other means you use to install software) and look for "GNOME To Do" application.
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/5b58297de15c4d324d85660630b4752eac6d261f.png" width="690" height="75">
Just like with Calendars, you will see that all your tasks are automatically synchronized. You can now easily add new tasks, deadlines, descriptions, add notes, priority as well as organize them in main and related task tree. The application is pretty intuitive and easy to use.
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/afb94958a83e7ace850418d9b2c122a448097fbf.gif
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/6552fc44ee66e163d018c9f51ff561d19eae8a44.gif
In KDE you can use the KOrganizer app, it also has task included. Like in with the calendar option, your tasks will already be synchronized. You can easily add/edit/remove tasks and set deadlines.
<br>
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/ebbc0797da1d6fc57c433764a8c5d4dea369a936.gif
----------
##Contacts <a name="contacts"></a>
<br>
Getting contact integration is as easy as everything you did so far. Just follow the same pattern. First get "Contacts" application in case you don't have it installed by default.
<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/d1aa4ee77e5a105a6c0f6d1432781cea61e54b87.png" width="690" height="79">
Next you need to switch your default address book to the one provided by dirstoot cloud.
Just select "Change Address Book" from the Contact app menu. Once you select your disroot account as the current one, all your contacts will be synced to your computer. All new contacts or any modification will be synced back to your disroot cloud and all the devices connected to it.
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/a57d27723c6331e63562768820723176154d0b44.gif
In KDE you can use your KAddressBook <img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/e54675605e2e9168aa51f77fffdc97c4ce334a54.png" width="222" height="49"> to organize your contacts, the working principals are identical to the "Contacts" app described before.
<br>
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/45732239d5ae1578d50da9dfab0c65394bb595a1.gif
<br>
----------
##Email<a name="email"></a>
<br>
If you never wored with email desktop client and always used webapp to access your email you simply do it wrong! Despite the trend in which big corporations try to convince you otherwise, destkop clients give you integration with your work you always missed. The most popular open source email client is Thunderbird (setup is covered in [this](https://forum.disroot.org/t/email-how-to-setup-email-clients/213#Thunderbird) tutorial). If you don't like Thunderbird and would like to integrate your Email into Gnome, there is also an easy solution for that. Open again your "Gnome Settings" and click on "Online Accounts". Now you need to scroll all the way down to the "other" option and choose for it. Next, select IMAP Account. At this stage you will be asked several questions regarding your account and mail server setup. Just follow the list below.
**email address:** *<your_username>*@disroot.org
**Name:** A name for your account (can be anything)
**IMAP Settings:**
**IMAP Server:** disroot.org
**Username:** *your disroot username*
**Password:** *your disroot password*
**encryption:** SSL On dedicated port
**SMTP Settings:**
**SMTP Server:** disroot.org
**Username:** *your disroot username*
**Password:** *your disroot password*
**encryption:** STARTTLS after connecting
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/17aab444320a78f5f53b677d89c1d67d8ece7b98.gif
Now that you have your email setup and integrated with your desktop, you can fire up "Evolution" Mail client and enjoy all your emails, calendars, tasks, and contacts integrated in one application. Magic.. :)
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/14912cef4edbfc576f01ec24b8ee1beee090cdd9.png
As for KDE, again if you don't want to use Thunderbird, you can integrate your emails in KDE desktop, by using KMail<img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/38ea7e5cf05f1f91ca0652f5f2722c236dda91b6.png" width="170" height="49">
The setup credentials are the same as described before. After you open KMail, go to:
* Settings
* Configure KMail
* Accounts
You need to configure both receiving (IMAP or POP3) and sending (SMTP) accounts
For IMAP or POP3 go to:
* Receiving
* Add
* Select IMAP or POP3
* Fill the credentials
For SMTP go to:
* Sending
* Add
* SMTP
* Fill the credentials
----------
##News<a name="news"></a>
News app on disroot cloud let's you aggregate all the new posts of your favourite website using RSS Feed, and sync it with all your devices. It comes extra handy when you want to stay on top of news that interest you. Most of the websites offer RSS feeds.Usually you can find them via this <img src="/uploads/default/original/1X/a286215a375767170da00fba7fdb227f659163a2.png" width="20" height="20"> icon, or by typing address similar to https://disroot.org/feed
Besides traditional web app and mobile app we can easily integrate News with your desktop. Just like all the previous app integrations in this tutorial, first step is to install appropriate software. The RSS Feed application that integrates with disroot cloud is **"FeedReader"**, which should be available in your distributions "Software" center (app store), if it isn't then you can look for instructions on how to install it [here](https://github.com/jangernert/feedreader).
Once you get it up and running, all you need to do is fill in your disroot credentials, and you are ready to go.
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/b40968c389c89084c52e6a4ae51a9fc1139ea76d.gif
Once your account is setup, initial synchronization will take place. All your currently subscribed feeds will be synced to your desktop. Just like on mobile or webapp you can now read latest news, add / remove feeds, categorize them etc. Everything will be synced back to your cloud account. The app checks for new posts in the background and sends you desktop notification even if the app itself is closed, so you won't missout on anything.
https://forum.disroot.org/uploads/default/original/1X/1c633eecb4cf5c896f34d40acc826ef643155c98.gif
<br>
In KDE you can also use **"FeedReader"**, but it's not in Kubuntu "Software Center", you need to install it via PPA. You can see how to do it [here](https://github.com/jangernert/feedreader), in the "ElementaryOS/Ubuntu" section

Using the Nexcloud desktop client provides a way to sync your files stored in your Disroot cloud with a local folder in your desktop.<br>
Meaning you can access/add/remove/edit the files in your Disroot account in your desktop without needing to log to your account via
browser.
# Install Nexcloud app (client)
If you don't have Nextcloud-client installed in your desktop yet you can see how to do it [here](https://nextcloud.com/install/#install-clients).
For users of ubuntu or ubuntu based distros you can find better detailed instructions [here](https://www.c-rieger.de/how-to-install-nextcloud-desktop-client-for-ubuntu/).
Or compile from source as described [here](https://forum.disroot.org/t/cloud-howto-install-nextcloud-desktop-client-in-linux/636).
# Add a new account
The first time you run Nextcloud-client you will be directly greeted with account setup.
Add disroot's address in URL field **https://cloud.disroot.org**, then press "next".
![](desktop_client1.png)
Next add your disroot account details:
Username: *your Disroot username*
Password: *your Disroot account password*
Then press **"next"**
![](desktop_client2.png)
Now it's time to choose what do you want to sync and where should it be synced on your harddrive. By default Nextcloud wants to create a folder called "Nexcloud" in your home folder. This folder will be used to sync all the files you store on your cloud to.
You can choose to sync everything or select which folders you would like to have synced. This is specially useful if your cloud storage is huge and you don't want to have exact copy of it on your desktop or laptop. This setting can be changed at any time later on.
Once you are happy with the settings, just hit "Connect"
![](desktop_client3.png)
And then **finish**
Any file you edit in this folder (.txt, spreadsheet, word) will be synced with your Disroot cloud. Any files you remove or add will be removed or added in your Disroot cloud. This of course works the other way around. Any change done on Disroot cloud interface will reflect your synced folder on your desktop, unless you opted out from synchronizing a particular file or folder.
# General options
Nextcloud-client opens by default in the background. By interacting with nextcloud systray icon you can focus the app.![](desktop_client_systray.png)
The app consists of 4 main tabs:
- Your account
- Activities
- General
- Network
![](desktop_client4.png)
## Your account
Gives you general sense of what's the current status of your app. You can:
- see the status of any synchronization
- choose what folders to sync by clicking in the checkbox option
- confirm the signature of the ssl keys by pressing the padlock button
The account button let's you remove your account from the desktop client or add a new one. Nextcloud client work with multiple accounts. You aren't even restricted to only disroot accounts either. You can add any nextcloud/owncloud account from any other server (including your own server of course).
![](desktop_client5.png)
## Adding another account
Adding extra account is the same as adding the first one. You will be asked the same questions during the setup. The important thing to keep in mind. **You can't use the same Nextcloud folder** with multiple active accounts. You should therefore make sure you are syncing to another folder.
After you add a second account your, it will show up on the top bar of the app. This is how you also switch between accounts if you need to change settings.
![](desktop_client6)
## Activity tab
**Activity** tab gives you an overview on all the uploaded/downloaded/added/removed files and folders from your accounts. Similar to Activity app in disroot cloud interface.
![](desktop_client7.png)
## General tab
**General** tab lets you:
- Set the limit for files sizes that you download to you local folder
- Set to show notifications on your desktop
- Launch this panel when the system starts
![](desktop_client8.png)
## Network tab
- Configure your nextcloud desktop client for your proxy setting (if you are using a proxy)
- Set maximum download and upload bandwidth (can be use full if your bandwidth is limited)
![](desktop_client9.png)
## Sharing From Your Desktop (macos and windows only!)
If you are using Windows or MacOS it's possible to create share links directly from the local folder of a file or sub-folder to send by email to someone else. By right clicking on the file/or folder
![](desktop_client10.png)
And you will be presented with the same sharing options as if you where accessing your files in your Disroot account using a browser.
![](desktop_client11.png)
This feature does not exist when using Linux :(
Though if you use nautilus file browser (gnome,unity,etc) you could install additional plugin called owncloud-client-nautilus (naming depends on the distribution, could be nextcloud instead).

----------
Gnome is a very popular, slick, modern and easy to use graphical desktop environment for Linux. It's my desktop of choice and it is mainly due to it's awesome integration with Disroot's cloud services.
Integration with desktop environment means, you no longer need to login to disroots cloud via the browser, every time you need to add or lookup information. It means everything you need is available to you directly from your desktop. Furthermore it makes it look and feel unified with all other apps you use while you work. It's definitely **THE** way to get things done.
In this tutorial I would like to show you how easy and handy it is to integrate your cloud on your computer. Setup procedure should take no longer then few minutes of your time.
-------
# Set Online accounts
In order to get up and running, all you need to do is:
- Go to Gnome **Settings** (eg. type settings in the dashboard search)
- Open **"Online Accounts"**
- Select **"Nextcloud"** (or owncloud if using older version)
- Follow instructions to fill in all your credentials:
- **Address:** https://cloud.disroot.org
- **Username:** *yourusername*
- **Password:** *your_super_secret_password*
If you did that correctly now you can choose which aspects of the cloud you want to integrate. You can switch them on and off at any time depending on your use case. I choose to integrate it all.

# Calendar
One of the useful features is calendar. You will notice that your calendars are already integrated if you press on the **current time** in your top bar on the desktop. A popup window with a calendar will automatically display all the events from your disroot's cloud account. You will of course receive all notifications on upcoming events as well.
![](gnome_calendar1.gif)
In order to add/edit/remove events or have better overview on all your calendars, I suggest installing Gnome Calendar app.
Depending on your operating system you should search for it in your "Software" application (linux app store).
![](gnome_install_calendar.png)
Once you get it installed, you'll notice your calendars are already integrated thanks to the global "Online Accounts" you set up earlier. The application is very simple, and still missing some features to be complete (eg. recurrence) but it enables you to do basic things such as create/delete/edit calendar entries. You can select which calendars you would like to see and which ones to disable (in case you have numerous calendars). You can create/modify/delete events, and they'll be all synchronized with disroot cloud, which means also with all the devices connected to it.

# Files
If you open your "Files" app you will notice there is a new network location that points to your disroot account. That's right.

Tasks is very handy tool to organize your work. Thanks to integrations you no longer need to login via browser to make use of them. Just navigate to "Software" application (app store, or any other means you use to install software) and look for "GNOME To Do" application.
![](gnome_tasks1.png)
Just like with Calendars, you will see that all your tasks are automatically synchronized. You can now easily add new tasks, deadlines, descriptions, add notes, priority as well as organize them in main and related task tree. The application is pretty intuitive and easy to use.

# Contacts

# Email
If you never worked with email desktop client and always used webapp to access your email, you're simply doing it **wrong!** Despite the recent trend in which big corporations try to convince you otherwise, desktop clients give you integration with your work you always missed. The most popular open source email client is Thunderbird (setup is covered in [this](https://forum.disroot.org/t/email-how-to-setup-email-clients/213#Thunderbird) tutorial). If you don't like Thunderbird and would like to integrate your Email into Gnome, there is also an easy solution for that. Open again your "Gnome Settings" and click on "Online Accounts". Now you need to scroll all the way down to the "other" option and choose for it. Next, select IMAP Account. At this stage you will be asked several questions regarding your account and mail server setup. Just follow the list below.
**email address:** *<your_username>*@disroot.org
**Name:** A name for your account (can be anything)
**IMAP Settings:**
**IMAP Server:** disroot.org
**Username:** *your disroot username*
**Password:** *your disroot password*
**encryption:** SSL On dedicated port
**SMTP Settings:**
**SMTP Server:** disroot.org
**Username:** *your disroot username*
**Password:** *your disroot password*
**encryption:** STARTTLS after connecting

Now that you have your email setup and integrated with your desktop. You can now use either "Evolution" or "Geary" mail client and enjoy all your emails, calendars, tasks, and contacts integrated in one application. Magic.. :)

# News
News app on disroot cloud lets you aggregate all the new posts of your favorite websites and services using RSS Feed, and sync it with all your devices. It comes extra handy when you want to stay on top of news that interest you. Most of the websites offer RSS feeds.Usually you can find them via this ![](gnome_news1.png?resize=20,20), or by typing address similar to https://disroot.org/feed
Besides traditional web app and mobile app we can easily integrate News with your desktop. Just like all the previous app integrations in this tutorial, first step is to install appropriate software. The RSS Feed application that integrates with disroot cloud is called **"FeedReader"**, which should be available in your distributions "Software" center (app store). if it isn't then you can look for instructions on how to install it [here](https://github.com/jangernert/feedreader).
Once you get it up and running, all you need to do is fill in your disroot credentials, and you are ready to go.
![](gnome_news2.gif)
Once your account is setup, initial synchronization will take place. All your currently subscribed feeds will be synced to your desktop. Just like on mobile or webapp you can now read latest news, add / remove feeds, categorize them etc. Everything will be synced back to your cloud account. The app checks for new posts in the background and sends you desktop notification even if the app itself is closed, so you won't miss-out on anything.

# Sync Contacts Contacts and Tasks
First setup an account in the app Kaddressbook.
![](kde_kaddressbook1.png)
* In order to set it up all you need to do is:
* Go to Kaddressbook
* Select File > New > Add Address Book
* Select DAV Groupware resource
* Follow instructions to fill in all your credentials:
* **Username:** _yourusername_
* **Password:** _your_super_secret_password_
* In the option "select one of these servers", select: **owncloud**
* Host: place the address [cloud.disroot.org](http://https:cloud.disroot.org)
* Installation path: leave it blank
* Select the option: "use secure connection"
* Press:
* Next
* Test connection
* And if the connection checked ok, press finish
After this you need to manually add the URL links for contacts and calendars, in the general settings.
![](kde_kaddressbook2.gif)
The general settings will automatically appear after you have pressed finish.
Then you need to:
* Select CalDAV and edit
* Replace the remote URL, with the URL of your disroot calendar: https://cloud.disroot.org/remote.php/dav/calendars/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_CALENDARS/
* Press "Fetch" and then "Ok"
* Select CardDAV and edit
* Replace the remote URL, with the URL of your disroot contacts: https://cloud.disroot.org/remote.php/dav/addressbooks/users/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_ADDRESS_BOOK/
* Press "Fetch" and then "Ok"
You can find the correct URL in your disroot calendar and contacts apps share options
In the general settings you can also:
* Change the name of the general display
* Remove the time retrieval limits on calendars so it will sync all your events
![](kde_kaddressbook3.gif)
----------
# Calendar
You can use the KOrganizer app, it has both calendar and tasks.
![](kde_kalendar1.png)
Your events will already be synchronized /adding/removing/editing events is very similar to the Calendar app described before, any changes will be synchronized with your disroot calendar.
![](kde_kalendar2.gif)
----------
# Files
In KDE, you need to add a network folder to access your disroot files remotely. Go to your start menu select "Computer" ![](kde_files1.png?resize=20,20) and then "Network" ![](kde_files2.png?resize=20,20)
After that:
* Select "Add Network Folder"
* Select "WebFolder Webdav"
* Follow the instructions to fill your credentials:
* **Name:** the name you want to give to the folder
* **User:** _your disroot username_
* **Server:** [cloud.disroot.org](https://cloud.disroot.org)
* **Folder:**/remote.php/dav/files/YOUR_DISROOT_USERNAME/
* Select the checkbox for "Use encryption"
* Hit "Save and Connect"
* You will be asked for your password,
![](kde_files3.gif)
After that you can look in your files app in "network" for your disroot files. Like mentioned before:
You can easily, add/remove/copy/modify files on your cloud without a need to download them onto your device or login via web-browser. This is very different then using "nextcloud client app", as it does not sync the content of the cloud files to your computer. **Remember you are working directly on your cloud storage** (whatever you change, affects your cloud storage Immediately).
----------
# Tasks
KOrganizer app is your friend. Like in with the calendar option, your tasks will already be synchronized. You can easily add/edit/remove tasks and set deadlines.
![](kde_tasks1.gif)
----------
# Contacts
In KDE you can use your KAddressBook to organize your contacts. The working principals are identical to the "Contacts" app described before.
![](kde_kaddressbook4.gif)
----------
# Email
You can integrate your email account with KDE app called KMail
![](kde_kmail1.png)
The setup credentials are the same as described before. After you open KMail, go to:
* Settings
* Configure KMail
* Accounts
You need to configure both receiving (IMAP or POP3) and sending (SMTP) accounts
For IMAP or POP3 go to:
* Receiving
* Add
* Select IMAP or POP3
* Fill the credentials
For SMTP go to:
* Sending
* Add
* SMTP
* Fill the credentials

Nextcloud integrates with your device very easily, providing native experience for most devices and operating systems.
Here in disroot we are trying to include and document all of them to make it easy for anyone to get up and running.
If you would like to help us, your contribution is more then welcome.
