Gatsby-Source-Webdav

This source package creates Gatsby nodes for images and videos mounted on a WebDAV share, for use in your static website. This might be useful if you want to publish WebDAV content for instance from your Nextcloud server.

N.B. Check the version number before you decide to use this in your production app.

Dependencies

This ought to work out of the box with any gatsby website.

How to install

npm --save gatsby-source-webdav

Then, add the plugin to your gatsby-config.js

plugins: [
  {
    resolve: `gatsby-source-webdav`,
    options: {
      baseURL: "https://yourdomain/webdav",
      credentials: {
        username: "username",
        password: "password",
      },
      recursive: true,
      sharePath: "/",
    },
  }
]

Available options

baseURL - the URL to your WebDAV server credentials - username/password (optional) recursive - should we source files in subdirectories of the WebDAV share? true / false sharePath - what path under the WebDav share should we use?

Using

If you've configured the plugin correctly, you ought to be able to query for your WebDAV nodes in GraphQL.

query {
      allWebdav(sort: { fields: [lastmod], order: DESC }) {
        edges {
          node {
            basename
            filename
            id
            lastmod
            mime
            size
            type
            webDavContent {
              publicURL
              childImageSharp {
                fluid {
                  src
                  srcSet
                  aspectRatio
                  sizes
                  base64
                }
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }

Images will have entries populated in childImageSharp, so you can make use of gatsby-image features, whereas the videos will just have a publicURL. Use the type field to determine what kind of file is being returned.

See the example site on GitHub for an example of how to use with a sample gatsby-node.js
