About a week ago I was looking for a plugin that integrates Dropbox within the KDE filemanager Dolphin. Seems like this didn't exist yet. The demand for it is pretty high it seems:
That's why I decided to develop dolphin-box-plugin and blog about it. What the plugin currently does is:
- Show sync feedback with icon overlays
- Provide custom context menus
As screenshots usually say more then a thousand words:
So how do you get these goodies?
Currently you can get the sourcecode at:
Or download the (K)Ubuntu 10.10 64bit package (I know, I should create more packages)
After installing the files, either from source or from the deb, you have to enable the plugin by doing the following:
- Restart Dolphin
- Settings --> Configure Dolphin --> Services
- Check Dropbox
- Restart Dolphin
Let me know if you have any problems!
As they would say it: Happy syncin'!
Please note that i'm not affiliated with Dropbox in any way, hence the sucky plugin name.
