I’m planning to selfhost my own webdav server, but I’m not sure what FOSS app to use. RCX seems to be not being maintained anymore (last updated was 2021). Any suggested app available in Fdroid?

EDIT1: I want to sync my keepassxc database using webdav so i can use the same file on my Android phone and laptop. Looks like keepassxc doesn’t support synchronization

EDIT2: ok I found DAVx⁵, has anyone tried it?

      Yes I’ve been using DAVx⁵ for many years to sync my Synology Calendar to my phone via WebDAV and my contacts via CardDAV. Any concerns you have?

          I see. Somehow I missed your first edit with that information. It does not seem like that’s an option given the response on the GitHub discussions: https://github.com/bitfireAT/davx5-ose/discussions/318#discussioncomment-5814992

          They suggest:

          creating a Tasker automation, or use an specialized application for synchronization like Syncthing or FolderSync for example.

          Apparently there’s also the option to use NextCloud and their app if you want to go that route like someone else suggested.

            ah I think they are suggesting Tasker if user wants to autocopy new files (e.g. say an image after taking a pic) to the WebDav folder. This is not what I plan to do as I will already place the keepass file to the webdav folder.

            My question about DavX is if it has WebDav feature (which looks like it has) and works correctly to sync files in the specified folder? I don’t see any webdav apps in Fdroid other than DavX.

          If you have a dropbox-like service, such as Synology Drive, you can put the file on the replicated volume to get the same effect.

          I use synology drive, but I have it locked down so I can only sync when I’m on my local network or I activate my personal VPN remotely.

      Yes! It works perfectly, you can have Google and non-Google accounts there.

    Does it work with syncthing? There are people who use keepass, might be worth asking what other people use.

      Been using syncthing for maybe 4 or 5 years now. Syncing the keypass database over 5 devices, no problems.

      syncthing is an option, but i think i may add other files if i upgraded my server. Is syncthing better than webdav?

        Syncthing is only for syncing. You can’t access it directly on a foreign computer but that’s not really what you want anyway. If it’s only for keepass, I’d go with syncthing

          oh ok, so syncthing doesn’t need a server from what i’ve read. I think I’ll use webdav instead as I plan to self-host a server. I’m also planning hosting a site on that server, but that’s not the main concern here. I found DavX in Fdroid has Webdav feature. I just want to make sure if that’s the right app as I don’t see other Webdav apps in Fdroid?

            You can run syncthing on the server as well 😂 I use Davx5 for carddav and caldav, it works perfectly fine. Probably for webdav as well

    There’s WebDAV modules for all major web servers. Just use whatever web server you’re more familiar with configuring.

    There’s probably Docker images about, ready to go with WebDAV, to save time.

    Keepass2Android supports fetching the database over WebDAV. It’s not on F-Droid though.

      Keepass2Android

      that’s sad no progress for an fdroid app, but i think this is fine as long as webdav is supported
