Hey everyone,
Raw Fileserver (files_sharing_raw) — serves files directly over HTTP without any Nextcloud UI wrapper. Perfect for hosting static pages, embedding images, self-hosting RSS feeds, or using Nextcloud as a lightweight asset CDN.
Enable a share, flip the toggle in the sidebar, done. Your file is live at:
https://your-nextcloud/raw/{token}
- Allowlist-gated — nothing is served until you explicitly enable it
- Strict CSP by default, configurable per share/path/extension/MIME
- “Raw only” mode to block the standard /s/{token} share page
- ETag support, optional webserver offload (nginx/apache), cookie-free responses
Heads up: password-protected shares are bypassed by design — raw is headless, there’s no place for a password prompt. For authenticated access, use WebDAV.
