Windows storage driver
-
awseome.... I'd like to give it a test shot - I recall you mentioned you advised to do a separate install on a separate machine to not mess up wallets 'n stuff?? :-)
-
I've downlodaded and tested a bit:
-
I can upload folders to SIA just by moving them to the mapped windows drive - very good.
-
Issue one: if you rename folders in the mapped (the SIA dive) you will end up having a copy, not a renamed folder, and in SIAD (the "official" SIA client the rename is not reflected. I couln't figure out if it is because the rename was done during upload, during duplication till factox3 or after.
btw.: do you want feed back from test here or??

-
@larsfloe So sorry for missing this. Haven't checked the forum lately. Mostly on Slack. I'll test rename again tonight.

Alpha 2 is released.

Alpha 3 is released. Fix for rename issue reported above. Moving on to FUSE but will most likely release something every 2 weeks. More of an agile approach since it's just me developing.

This is amazing! It's exactly what I need. It is just a tad unstable though. Or maybe I'm not using it quite right. When will there be a windows stable beta version? Is there anyway that I can help? I don't want to discuss how I want to use it on here but maybe we can get together you can tell me if I'm using it incorrectly for what I'm trying to do.

@bryan It's going to be a bit unstable at this point. I'm in early alpha phase and decided to put it out sooner to get early adopter feedback. Test away and send any feedback my direction. I really don't have any time frame for a stable version until feature complete. Still evolving as Sia continues to implement improvements and features.

@bryan it is for the project. you can shoot me any questions there confidentially or i can provide a personal email. either way, just use the email above and we can go from there. thanks for test feedback, as well!

i've encountered issues with antivirus software and things just seem to work better if you can exclude the mounted location. may or may not apply. most of the odd behavior will disappear when sia adds random read but next weeks release should ease some pains as well.
-
I don't use anti virus in this case. I think it may have something to do with connection sort of like when you try to mount a drive via wifi. I'll await this next release then get with you on email. I put a couple SC in your donation address.

@bryan really appreciate it! any issues, just let me know.

I've mostly moved everything over to Bitbucket - still not fully complete, but good enough.
Alpha 4 will be out on June 4th.

@drexel I'd highly recommend looking at the WinFSP FUSE driver for Windows. From everything I've seen it's a lot more reliable than Dokan and the author is actively working with filesystem authors to add any needed additions to the WinFSP API.
-
@grimmthetallest I have looked at it and may end up switching when FUSE is complete. I haven't experienced any issues with Dokany so there really isn't a pressing need to do so atm. I don't remember exactly why I chose Dokany, but I believe it had to do with matching Win32 Api's more closely. It would be easier to support a single code base and that's why I may just go full FUSE in the future.

I have Slack setup:

@drexel keep up the good work.

Looking for Linux SiaDrive testers. FUSE will be fully merged in a few days and need to see if app launches properly on different distro's. Email [email protected] or post here. Thanks!
