Export To Remote Computer

This tool allows you to upload files from your collections to a remote computer using a network. It is available from the Export ‣ Export to remote storage Ctrl+Alt+Shift+K menu entry or the corresponding icon in the Tools tab in the Right Sidebar.

Protocols such as fish (ssh), ftp, smb, etc, can be used to connect to the Target Location url. For example:

  • fish://utilizador@computador_remoto: liga-se ao computador_remoto com o utilizador utilizador, usando o protocolo SSH (Linha de Comandos Segura).

  • ftp://utilizador@computador_remoto: liga-se ao computador_remoto com o utilizador utilizador, usando o protocolo FTP (Protocolo de Transferência de Ficheiros).

Instead of using the Target Location url field, you can use the native desktop url selector by pressing the Select Export Location button. A dialog will appear where you can see and select remote devices in the network section of the dialog:

Nota

The native url selector dialog is only available if you turn on the right option in Settings ‣ Configure digiKam… ‣ Miscellaneous page ‣ Appearance tab as described in the appearance settings section of this manual.

By default, the tool proposes to export the currently selected items from the icon-view. The + Photos button can be used to append more items to the list.

Once you have selected the right target to upload the files, press the Start Export button to process the files. You can abort the operation by pressing the Close button.
