Usage

It is recommended to set following environment variables to improve your experience with this tool:

• ROOT is an URL of target WebDAV server (e.g. https://webdav.mydomain.me/user_root_folder)
• USER is a login to connect to specified server (e.g. user)
• PASSWORD is a password to connect to specified server (e.g. p@s$w0rD)

In following examples we suppose that:

• environment variable ROOT is set to https://webdav.mydomain.me/ufolder
• environment variable USER is set to user
• environment variable PASSWORD is set p@s$w0rD
• folder /ufolder/temp exists on the server
• file /ufolder/temp/file.txt exists on the server
• file /ufolder/temp/document.rtf exists on the server
• file /tmp/webdav/to_upload.txt exists on the local machine
• folder /tmp/webdav/ is used to download files from the server

Examples

Get content of specified folder

gowebdav -X LS temp

Get info about file/folder

gowebdav -X STAT temp
gowebdav -X STAT temp/file.txt

Create folder on the remote server

gowebdav -X MKDIR temp2
gowebdav -X MKDIRALL all/folders/which-you-want/to_create

Download file

gowebdav -X GET temp/document.rtf /tmp/webdav/document.rtf

You may do not specify target local path, in this case file will be downloaded to the current folder with the

Upload file

gowebdav -X PUT temp/uploaded.txt /tmp/webdav/to_upload.txt

Move file on the remote server

gowebdav -X MV temp/file.txt temp/moved_file.txt

Copy file to another location

gowebdav -X MV temp/file.txt temp/file-copy.txt

Delete file from the remote server

gowebdav -X DEL temp/file.txt

Wrapper script

You can create wrapper script for your server (via $EDITOR ./dav && chmod a+x ./dav) and add following content to it:

#!/bin/sh

ROOT="https://my.dav.server/" \
USER="foo" \
PASSWORD="$(pass dav/foo@my.dav.server)" \
gowebdav $@

It allows you to use pass or similar tools to retrieve the password.

Examples

Using the dav wrapper:

$ ./dav -X LS /

$ echo hi dav! > hello && ./dav -X PUT /hello
$ ./dav -X STAT /hello
$ ./dav -X PUT /hello_dav hello
$ ./dav -X GET /hello_dav
$ ./dav -X GET /hello_dav hello.txt
