## What works
|
||||
|
||||
Browsing folders and reading files. aindrive reads a file whole, at most
|
||||
8 MiB at a time, so a larger file is refused as unsupported rather than cut
|
||||
short. A read is checked against the size the drive reported a moment before,
|
||||
so a file that changes in between is a conflict rather than a mix of two
|
||||
versions. Names the drive's machine allows but Memona cannot show, such as one
|
||||
containing a backslash, are left out of listings.
|
||||
Browsing folders, and reading, saving and deleting files. A token generated
|
||||
as **Read only** opens the drive read-only.
|
||||
|
||||
Saving, creating folders, renaming and deleting are not supported yet, and
|
||||
neither is change polling.
|
||||
aindrive reads a file whole, at most 8 MiB at a time, so a larger file is
|
||||
refused as unsupported rather than cut short. A read is checked against the
|
||||
size the drive reported a moment before, so a file that changes in between is
|
||||
a conflict rather than a mix of two versions.
|
||||
|
||||
A save sends the file whole, up to 1 MiB, the most Memona saves in one
|
||||
transfer. It names the revision it was read at, and aindrive compares and
|
||||
writes under one lock, so a file someone changed since is reported as a
|
||||
conflict instead of being overwritten. A save into a folder that does not
|
||||
exist yet creates that folder, as aindrive does.
|
||||
|
||||
Deleting takes one file. A folder is refused: aindrive deletes a folder with
|
||||
everything in it, and leaves some entries, such as `.git`, out of every
|
||||
listing, so a folder cannot be shown to be empty first.
|
||||
|
||||
Creating folders, renaming and change polling are not supported, since the
|
||||
drive's MCP endpoint offers no tool for them. Names the drive's machine allows
|
||||
but Memona cannot show, such as one containing a backslash, are left out of
|
||||
listings.
