A feature request for considering conflicts came up. So now I’m wondering whether Syncthing provides an API to query whether a folder has conflicting files (and whether there’s a corresponding event).
I’ve already seen @canton7 's reply in conflict notification via REST API - #7 by canton7 but I don’t know which exact events (from the documentation) these correspond to. It also doesn’t look like LocalChangeDetected/RemoteChangeDetected events would be of help. And besides just relying on events it would also be necessary to know the whether there’s a conflict initially.
Note that I’d personally would like to refrain from messing with the file system on GUI-level. The GUI might run with different permissions than the backend or on a completely different machine so it just wouldn’t make much sense generally.
