Feat/add share link to drive files by egalvis27 · Pull Request #386 · internxt/drive-desktop-linux

egalvis27 · 2026-06-10T15:14:19Z

What is Changed / Added

Restored and updated Nautilus context menu behavior for virtual drive items.
Temporarily disabled the Make Available Offline menu action.
Added a new Copy Internxt Link action in Nautilus, shown only for single remote item selection.
Wired the new menu action end-to-end:
- Nautilus extension calls hydration API.
- Hydration route and controller now handle copy-link requests.
- Main process generates a valid sharing link and returns it to the caller.
Implemented sharing-link generation in a modular structure under nautilus-extension/create-sharing-link:
- Shareable item resolution from path.
- Public sharing domain selection.
- Sharing creation request.
- Link assembly and normalized error mapping.
Added/updated drive-server service wrappers to use the project shared HTTP client for:
- File metadata by path.
- Folder metadata by path.
- Sharing creation.
- Public sharing domains retrieval.
Added focused tests for link generation flow and updated related mocks/bootstrap wiring.
Bumped Nautilus extension version to trigger extension refresh/reinstall behavior.
Included minor supporting maintenance changes:
- TypeScript max errors script threshold update.
- Consistency adjustments in related virtual drive/bootstrap test paths.

Why

Improve Linux Nautilus integration by giving users a direct way to create and copy Internxt sharing links from the context menu.
Keep offline hydration UX controlled while the share-link feature is rolled out safely.
Ensure the new action is available only in valid contexts (single remote item), reducing incorrect usage.
Reuse the project-standard drive-server client and service layer to keep architecture consistent and maintainable.
Increase reliability and confidence through targeted test coverage and explicit error handling.

 # TODO: Decrease this number as errors are fixed, never increase it
 # Note: CI environment may have different error count than local due to dependency differences

+MAX_ERRORS=150


Several errors had crept in because the interfaces in the diagrams are unusual, but I managed to minimize them to avoid raising the threshold.

Shouldnt we use function? Also this method lacks tests

Dont force the type, why not infer the type directly from result.data?

Also, this file lacks tests, and maybe it could be a good oportunity to move this functionality inside backend?

Wouldnt it be better to the user to show a native notification, pretty much like we show a toast in drive web?

Whats the reason behind this expression? What where you trying to achieve? Seems quite hacky and hard to understand at a first glance

That line generates an array of the file or folder path with and without a trailing slash, to retrieve the file information without encountering an error because it is stored in the backend with an extra trailing slash.

This expression creates an array with two elements: the file/folder path with and without a trailing slash. To avoid issues related to how the backend stores the path when retrieving metadata, both options are validated, and the result is returned as soon as the required information is found.

Shouldnt this go inside the dto file inside infra? This way we have these type of dto centralized

Why is the version change necessary?

When the application is packaged, the app checks this version against the one stored in the settings to reinstall the extension; otherwise, it would continue to use the last installed version rather than the updated Python script.

In development, the extension is forced to reinstall itself on every startup, but this does not happen in production.

You could just return the result of the fetch

I think it’s helpful retrun the Result structure so we can log errors when they occur and pinpoint exactly where the failure happened.
