Share a folder

The only access Foldocs needs is a link.

In Google Drive

  1. Make a folder for your site, say My site.
  2. Right-click it, choose Share, and under General access pick Anyone with the link, as Viewer.
  3. Copy the link: that is all Foldocs needs to find the folder.
  4. Create a free Google API key for the Drive API (the README has the three commands). The key only identifies Foldocs to Google; it opens nothing.

Google Docs and Word files both work; a Word file stays a Word file, or Drive converts it on upload.

In Nextcloud

  1. Open the folder's sharing settings and create a share link, read only.
  2. Add a password if you like: Foldocs takes it along.
  3. Give Foldocs the link. No key, no account, no app to register.

Pages on Nextcloud are Word files (.docx): set Collabora or OnlyOffice to save as Word rather than OpenDocument. What a share can't do: descriptions (so no folder introductions or photo captions) and a PDF of your CV.

Check it

Open the link in a private window. What you see there, Foldocs sees: nothing more. Unshare the folder, and the site stays as it was until you share it again: Foldocs never empties a site because it can't read the folder.
