<H1> Eldav: Yet another WebDAV interface for Emacsen </H1>
</p>
<p align="right">
[<a href="index.html.ja">Japanese</a> | English]
</p>
<p>Eldav provides an interface to the WebDAV servers for Emacs.</p>
<p>
</p>
<h3>What's New</h3>
0.7.0 (6, Mar 2003)<BR>
<UL>
<LI> Now package is distributed as tarball(not a single file). Version number policy is changed.
<LI> VC support (experimental).
<LI> More correct detection of collections.
<LI> Fixed bug that nd process is killed unexpectedly while authentication.
</UL>
(Note this version requires <A href="http://www.gohome.org/nd/">nd version 0.7.0</A> or later)
<h3>Features</h3>
<UL>
<LI>
WebDAV files can be treated just like a normal file.
<LI>
Emacs/w3 is not required. External program is used for WebDAV access.
</UL>
<h3>Requirements</h3>
<UL>
<LI> Emacs
<LI>
<A HREF="http://www.webdav.org">WebDAV</A> server
<LI> <A HREF="http://www.gohome.org/nd/">nd</A> (An WebDAV command line interface)
</UL>
<h3>Download</h3>
<A href="http://www.gohome.org/eldav/eldav-0.7.0.tar.gz">Eldav 0.7.0</A><BR><BR>
<P>
<A HREF="http://www.gohome.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/eldav/"> View source by ViewCVS</A> <br>
<h3>Install</h3>
Just put `eldav.el' and 'vc-eldav.el' (after byte-compiling, if you want)
on your load-path of Emacs.
<h3>Usage</h3>
Add following line to your .emacs.
<P>
<pre>
(require 'eldav)
</pre>
</P>
If you want to use proxy server, following setting is also needed.
<P>
<pre>
(setq eldav-proxy "http://your.proxy.server:8080")
</pre>
</P>
Then you can access WebDAV files by specifying magic file name like:
<P>
<pre>
:http://your.webdav.server/path/to/file/name
</pre>
</P>
(Add preceding ':' to the WebDAV URL.)
<h3>VC (Version Control)</h3>
<P>
Eldav implements VC backend (Note that it is experimental).
</P>
<P>
Eldav VC feature is enabled if you put following line in your setting.
</P>
<P>
<pre>
(setq eldav-use-vc t)
</pre>
</P>
<P>
If Eldav VC fearure is enabled, the file is locked and
access from another person is rejected (WebDAV LOCK feature).
</P>
<P>
If you open new WebDAV file, you'll be asked like following.
</P>
<P>
<pre>
File was lost; check out from version control? (yes or no)
</pre>
</P>
<P>Answer 'yes' here and check-out the file.</P>
<P>
If you open an existing WebDAV file, it appears on read-only buffer.
Type 'C-x v v' on this buffer, then file is checked-out and becomes
editable.
</P>
<P>
If the file is checked-out, the file cannot be accessed from another person
by locking mechanism.
</P>
<P>
After editing and saving, you have to type 'C-x v v' to check-in to unlock
the file. At this time, '*VC-Log*' buffer appers. Just type 'C-c C-c' to
continue (all texts in the *VC-Log* buffer is ignored).
</P>
<h3>Known Problems</h3>
<UL>
<LI> File completion causes many PROPFIND requests.
<LI> SSL is not supported (because `nd' does not handle it).
</UL>
<h3>Related Works</h3>
<p>
<UL>
<LI>
The Emacs/w3 package (<A HREF="http://www.gnu.org/software/url/">url</A>)
already provides WebDAV interface.
File handers also seem to be included.
<LI>
<A HREF="http://dav.sourceforge.net/">davfs</A>
is a WebDAV file system for Linux.
<LI>
<A HREF="http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/gnome-vfs/">GnomeVFS</A> supports WebDAV.
</UL>
