bonienl Posted April 8, 2023 Author Share Posted April 8, 2023 Good point, I will rename it "Search pattern" as per your suggestion. Thanks Quote Link to comment
Kilrah Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 When opening the menu on the right there seems to currently be no way to close it again, clicking outside of it just leaves it there, obscuring the + icons for files below it. Have to change page and come back. Quote Link to comment

bonienl Posted April 10, 2023 Author Share Posted April 10, 2023 I am happy to announce that the next version of DFM has scheduled jobs. This feature allows to create one or more tasks and put them in a queue, which can be executed upon request. This version is a major rework to make everything possible. Quite a lot of effort was put in developing and testing to ensure correct operation is in place, but please report anything unusual. Once the queue contains operational tasks, these can be viewed by clicking on the JOBS button. Clicking the JOBS button opens a new window, which shows the scheduled jobs in the queue. The user may delete any unwanted jobs before starting, therefor select the jobs to be deleted and then click DELETE, this will reorganize the list or make the list empty when selecting and deleting all scheduled jobs. Click START to begin the schedule. Jobs are executed in the order they appear and the next job starts when the previous job is completed. There is no check for correlation between jobs, it is the responsibility of the user to make sure jobs do not interfere with each other. Once started, progress can be followed in the footer. Press the DFM icon to open the current job and see the details of the operation. To hide the window click the minimize icon at the top right and progress goes back again to the footer. When you CANCEL the job, then the current job terminates, but other jobs in the queue stay there (the queue is not emptied) and the remaining jobs can be started or revised by following the steps as explained before. Hope you like this new addition 7 2 Quote Link to comment

The location column shows on which disks the same name exists. Would love to see similar color added to directories which exist more than once. Quote Link to comment

hecky Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 Hi there. I have a problem. I started a file-movement from one to another disc last night. This morning i recogniced, that there is still device-activity active. There was an idication at the bottom when i entered the DFM via a "browse"-button on the main page. It was all red and i don't know exactly, that it was saying Something like "cannot display ETA, speed, percentage done .. " Now there isn't any indication at the bottom mentioned, that the plugin is still active. Does the plugin have a log-file to analyse? Do I miss something, where I can see "still active" file-movement in the Plugin? Greetings Quote Link to comment
bonienl Posted April 20, 2023 Author Share Posted April 20, 2023 There is no log file, but as long as the background process is running you should be able to see the progress. Click on the DFM icon on the top right to open the file manager, if there is still activity it should display that at the bottom. Quote Link to comment

Sadly I am not seeing an activity. I did not do another thing insteaad of starting the mover Something is still moving files. I changed disc-writing to turbo-mode. It speeds up the progress a little. But aktually I am not shure, what is speeding up. Is there a way to see via terminal, if DFM is still active? Does DFM use rsync underneath? Quote Link to comment
bonienl Posted April 20, 2023 Author Share Posted April 20, 2023 Internally DFM uses these files. When these files are not present there is no current job. /var/tmp/file.manager.active : indicates the current job it is executing /var/tmp/file.manager.status : shows status details of the current job while executing /var/tmp/file.manager.error : exists only after the job has finished or terminated with an error File copy and file move operations use rsync or mv depending on source and destination (DFM has something called "smart move") When you move from one disk to another disk, it will use rsync Quote Link to comment
hecky Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 Thanks for the reply. Seems DFM is for sure not active. Than what process is accessing the discs I use with the DFM before 😳 Quote Link to comment
mgutt Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Feature Request - Do not use file extensions to open files in the editor. Instead open all non-binary files in the editor. Example: if [[ $(find "$file" -type f -size -100M -exec grep --files-with-matches --binary-files=without-match '' {} \;) ]] # open file with editor fi What it does: - "find -type f -size -100M" allows only to open files which are smaller than 100M - "grep --files-with-matches --binary-files=without-match" skips binary files 3 Quote Link to comment

Instead open all non-binary files in the editor. There is no meaning to any file extension in Linux. The only thing that will allow a file to be executed is that the 'x' bit in the 'rwx' permissions to be set. Even that bit being set does not mean that the file is 'binary', it could well be a executable script (Example-- A BASH script). A script file is a simple text file! Those script files have to have the 'x' bit set or BASH will not run the script. (I can remember when old UNIX security measures recommended that no file ever be saved with the execute bit set. The bit had to be manually set by the user as a debilitate act. I can remember having to do that with the final output file from a C-compiler so I could test it! Apparently, this is no longer the case...) Let's consider another common file extension--.zip. Do you really want to open that file in a simple text editor? How about Windows word .DOC file? The list could go on and on... Quote Link to comment

And my suggestion means NOT to use extensions in contrast how the plugin currently works. See the above code example, which makes it clear how I would realize it. 1 Quote Link to comment

bonienl Posted May 1, 2023 Author Share Posted May 1, 2023 Can you logout, then wait 1 minute and login again. Another thing to try: switch to English GUI and see if it loads. Quote Link to comment

Hope you like this new addition I want to give you a huge thanks here- I don't really use my UnRaid server other than to manage a lot of rather large media files, and without the internal file utility it is pretty much useless to me. Rather than transfer one file at a time, wait 15mins, then transfer another I can setup all my jobs at once and walk away. This is what makes the UnRaid community special- on other NAS suites I'd have to run a docker to do the same thing, and this is so much easier and takes up a lot less resources. Quote Link to comment
garion Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 hi, is it possible to include a column in explorer to view if a file is hardlinked? (similar to "ls -al") thanks Quote Link to comment
ullibelgie Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Small BUG-Report: I am using latest stable Unraid 6.11.5 together with latest Dynamix File manager. I think I found a small bug: Being in the Dynamix file manager GUI on the Unraid server, I used "upload" tab to copy an ISO file from a client PC to the Unraid ISO share. It worked without any issue, but I saw that the speed indication next to the percentage of already copied data is wrong The speed indication shows kB/s which is wrong Correct should be MB/sec with kByte/sec speeds, the copy would take hours and hours... but in reality it was quickly finshed... Thanks for the nice filemanager plug-in Quote Link to comment
mrmint Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 Hello, looking for a little advice on how to use this plugin to suit my needs. Current I have two copies of the same folder on two different disks for one reason or another I am not sure which one is the most recent so I would like to simply 'move' folder from disk 1 over to folder a in disk 2. However, even when I click on overwrite existing files it seems to create a new folder with the exact same name which is no what I would expect. See screenshot and folders 12 and 13 on the right widnow. Also I have search everywhere, what does the 'use sparse option' do. I cant find it being mentioned here and the documentation one page one appears to be out of date. Any clarity one the above would be appreciated. Cheers Quote Link to comment
Kilrah Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 There can't be 2 folders with the same name in the same location so likely there's a different character in the 2 names (note it's case-sensitive too). Maybe list in terminal, might be more obvious there Quote Link to comment

How can I copy from one disk to another and overwrite the same folders without creating a duplicate? Also what does the 'use sparse option' do? Thanks Edited May 28, 2023 by mrmint Quote Link to comment
Kilrah Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 As said that can't be so look in terminal, the GUI might be hiding a difference. If different then fix that so they're the same then it'll work. Sparse is for files e.g VM vdisks that are allocated as sparse, i.e. even if the file is supposed to be 100GB it'll only use what's actually needed until all of it gets actually used, saves space. Copying without the sparse option would make them use the full size, the option however retains the savings. Quote Link to comment
Revan335 Posted May 29, 2023 Share Posted May 29, 2023 I can't move to unlimited Directory Level. For example /mnt/disk3/Backup_folder/Daten/user/Client move /mnt/disk1/Backup_folder/Daten/ ended there. I can't selected underlying directory level /user/ or /user/Client Quote Link to comment
