As the capabilities of ELS are expanded new ideas emerge.
The broad brushstrokes - subject to change ...
Version 4 : The ELS Navigator desktop application. Initial Tools, Jobs, internal Updater and editors for all ELS system files. With full support for command line and scheduled automation that has been extended from previous ELS versions.
Version 5 : Individual user access and permissions management. Personal back-up (uploads) and downloads using a computer with Navigator. Great way for family and friends to back-up and share pictures and videos on a media system such as Plex while controlling what each user is able to see, write and delete. Includes a built-in email tool for automation results (Mismatches, What's New, logs, etc.) and user notifications.
Version 6 : ELS Mobile Apps to provide personal uploads and downloads from mobile devices running Android or iOS. Version 6 includes content metadata discovery and display in various ELS Tools, e.g. resolution, bitrate, size, etc.
Version 7: ELS virtual filesystems for Windows, Debian-based Linux distros and potentially Mac to allow any application to access the virtual structure of ELS libraries and titles.
See the ELS Milestones we use for planning.
Current work
Version 4 is in branch Version 4.0.
Deployments - the latest reasonably-working development build checked by the internal Updater Version 4.0/deploy/.
Notes
ELS "grew-up" as a command line back-up tool for home media systems. ELS views a "collection" as a set of libraries and titles the same way modern media systems do. Libraries and titles may span multiple storage devices. That approach is useful for anyone with large amounts of data such as videos, music and sound tracks, 3D models, graphic resources, or any files needing to be backed-up. ELS "listener" operations use standards-based sftp protocols that may be accessed using clients such as Filezilla, see Using SFTP in the Communications How-To.
ELS does not collect or send any data to anyone. It is a tool under your control. Remote and future mobile capabilities are direct to your designated (home) computer - not a "cloud service". All communication is encrypted.
Some port forwarding configuration may be required in your cable or DSL modem. See Communications/Configurations.
