Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/sigoden/dufs/issues/435

Specific Demand

If you drag n drop any direct link to a file into a folder on your system, browser will download file from to that folder. Example: "raw" button in github. This is very useful as it eliminates the need to select a folder when downloading. I would like to have this option in dufs.

Implement Suggestion

Make these links dragable

I don't understand your request. Could you provide a demonstration video?

It's just a feature of the file browser itself. I've tried it on both LinuxMint and Windows, but it didn't work. It only generated an HTML link.

Have you tried dufs links? I don't think they are much different from GitHub raw links? Both can be clicked to open source files in a browser.

Yes, I tried dufs links, but they don't drag at all. When I try to drag them, they don't do anything, as if dragging is disabled in the code.
Just to clarify: the problem is not "I'm dragging, but files are not downloading", the problem is "Links are not dragable"

How your tried text file like .md or .txt ? Maybe the file format matter.

Yes, I tried, none of the links are dragable.
Question: are they dragable on your side? Can you repeat the same as I showed with "raw" button, but in dufs, even if it only generates HTML link? If yes that means the problem is on my side

EDIT: I tested myself, and removing dragstart on this line makes links dragable, also suggested feature works as expected
1db263efae/assets/index.js (L491)

EDIT2: In my test removing dragstart does not break drag n drop upload feature. Tested in Firefox 129.0b9

This function is not universal and doesn't even work properly in Windows.

I have no way to confirm the effect. If it's just removing dragstart, you can submit a PR.

If it's not working in windows I can assume that not much people know/need it. I'll try to find a way to modify it locally.
Thank you for making this amazing software and for your time. Closing
