webDAV server using nginx module

Discuss Advanced use case
5

Hi,
I managed to create a Webdav server thanks to your discussion and to the nginx webdav documentation

  1. I created a file named webdav.conf in /etc/nginx/conf.d/mon-domain.tld.d
rewrite ^/webdav$ /webdav/ permanent;
location /webdav/ {

    root     /var/www;

    client_body_temp_path /var/www/webdav_client_temp;

    dav_methods PUT DELETE MKCOL COPY MOVE;

    create_full_put_path  on;
    dav_access            group:rw  all:r;


  # Include SSOWAT user panel.
  include conf.d/yunohost_panel.conf.inc;
}
  1. Then i created directories mentionned in this webavconf,
mkdir /var/www/webdav
mkdir /var/www/webdav_client_temp
chmod 777 /var/www/webdav
chmod 777 /var/www/webdav_client_temp

Of course, these chmod are not satisfying, they should be restricted to yunohost users

  1. Then i edited the ssowat config to allow the connexion
    it is in /etc/ssowat/conf.json

in "permissions":, i added


        "webdav.main": {
            "auth_header": true,
            "label": "Webdav",
            "public": true,
            "show_tile": true,
            "uris": [
                "mon-domain.tld/webdav"
            ],
            "users": [
                "utilisateur1",
                "uilisateur2" (etc)
            ]
        }

I restarted the nginx service
It works

I hope this can help

Maybe it would be convenient to transform this in a full Yunohost application.
Can somebody help?
