Functional enhancement: Allow editing of .txt/.md-files

[ho1ger]

It would be awesome if you could integrate a basic function that allows editing text files.

V: 2.17.00033

Related to #21

This function is available in the ownCloud iOS app. Could it be copied to the Nextcloud app?

.txt files can now be edited.
Still, .md and .org would still be desirable .

.org is also a plain text markdown language that also supports tasp management

[rakekniven]

IMHO we should split issue and have seperate ones for each file type.
@marinofaggiana Could you remember the version you introduced editing of text files?

[rakekniven]

Ah, just saw new issue. Please split it. Thank you @MarcusE1W

[MarcusE1W]

I have added #471 for markdown and #472 for org-mode. As .txt support is already available I guess this issues could be closed.

Since the last update it is not possible anymore anymore to edit .md-Files via the iOS-App. I also cannot add new text-files via the app anymore. What's up here?

app-version 3.0.0

[rakekniven]

Just did it and it works. Client app v3.0.0 and NC v19.0.0. iOS v 13.5.1

I also cannot add new text-files
Please explain more in detail.

Did you change something server side? I am using the text app and loads pretty well.

Oh, this is good news! Thanks for your answer!

Ok, let me explain more:

• Client app v3.0.0 on iOS 13.5.1
• Server Version nextcloud:17.0.3 in Docker

Did you change something server side?

Definitely no.

Please explain more in detail.

Touching the big blue + I am able to:

• add new photos or videos
• upload files
• scan documents
• record notice with the microphone
• create folder

There is not a point to create a textdocument anymore.

When I touch a .md-file, it opens to read and there is a button to share, but I do not find anything to edit.

Version 3 is a rewrite in many ways.
Could you try to enable app "Text" (https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/text) ?

Maybe the integrated editor component has been removed and the app uses the server app for editing. At least that is my idea 😄

For me it looks like:

"Text" ist still enabled. I can also use it within my browser.

Maybe the integrated editor component has been removed

Integrated in what? In the nextcloud app?

Maybe the versions are not compatible and I have to update to use it with the iOS-app (?)

Integrated in iOS Nextcloud app.

Maybe, not sure to be honest.

status: Upgraded to NC 17.0.7 - same problem
going on ...

[rdxmb]

upgrading to 18.0.6

The following apps have been disabled:
...
text
...

😕

[rdxmb]

Working again with 18.0.6

seems like the edit functions within the app has changed: In the last app I had to click to edit - here it appears like the editing in the browser

I didn't have to activate the app "Text" again.

@rakekniven thanks for encouraging me to update ;)
