55 <p>After successful installation you can test dav with your WebDAV server.</p>
56 <pre><code>dav list http://example.com/webdav/</code></pre>
57 <p>This lists all child resources of the specified collection. If you are unfamiliar to WebDAV terminology this means basically listing all files in a directory, similar to the ls unix tool. Infact you can also write dav ls instead of dav list and there is also a -l option like ls has one.</p>
58 <h3 id="create-a-repository">Create a repository</h3>
59 <p>All dav commands are expecting a url argument, but it may be a bit cumbersome to type a full url every time. But you can configure a repository in the dav configuration file ($HOME/.dav/config.xml) with the servers url, optional authentication information and other options. After that you can access a webdav server just with the repository name and an optional path.</p>
60 <p>So when you have created a repository with the name myserv and the url http://example.com/webdav/, you can just type</p>
61 <pre><code>dav list myserv</code></pre>
62 <p>You can add a path to the repository name to access an other url</p>
63 <pre><code>dav list myserv/mycollection/</code></pre>
64 <p>This lists the content of http://example.com/webdav/mycollection/</p>
65 <p>The easiest way to create a repository is with the add-repository command. This is a simple configuration assistant.</p>
66 <pre><code>$ dav add-repository
67 Each repository must have an unique name.
68 name: myserv
69
70 Specify the repository base url.
71 url: http://example.com/webdav/
72
73 User for HTTP authentication.
74 user (optional): myuser
75 password (optional):
76
77
78 Added repository: myserv (http://example.com/webdav/)</code></pre>
79 <p>You can also configure the config.xml yourself, check out this example page and the config.xml spec.</p>
