Nextcloud Workflow Script app
This app enables Nextcloud to pass on files to external scripts when they were created or changed. By utilizing the workflow engine it allows Nextcloud administrators to define rules upon which matching files are enqueued to be run against a specified script. Eventually, the command is executed in a background job.

Placeholders
After enabling this app, rules can be defined in the admin settings, "External scripts" section.
When defining the script, you can specify one of the following placeholders that will be replaced with the appropriate value:
| Placeholder | Description | example value |
|---|---|---|
| %e | the event type | create, update or rename |
| %i | file id | 142430 |
| %a | actor's user id | bob |
| %o | owner's user id | alice |
| %n | nextcloud-relative path | alice/files/Pictures/Wonderland/20180717_192103.jpg |
| %f | locally available file | /tmp/oc_tmp_m6E6OO-.jpg |
| %x | old nextcloud-relative file path (only on rename) | alice/files/Workbench/20180717_192103.jpg |
When no placeholder was specified, then the exact command as given is being executed.
Example
All plain text files should be passed to a tool that collects statistics of the writing style of a document and writes them back to a specified mount on the host, in a subfolder that matches the actor's ID, and filename consisting of the basename plus ".style" appended:
style -L de %f > /Lektorat/%a/$(basename %n).style
And after the cron job was run, you'll find the results on the expected place:
$ cat /Lektorat/bob/Sanin\ -\ Artsybashev.txt.style
