As nextcloudd has no native support for asynchronous operations, due to the use of php, this aplication is deprecated, and will no longer support the Nextcloud' future versions (19+). I did not find a way to implemement true support for interactive and long running occ tasks in a web terminal whitout introducing addtional dependencies (through websockets, for example), the lack of true asynchronous occ operations can lead to serious alterations of voluminous instances. This issue may give some hints on why I decided to not support this application anymore.

Install

Place this app in nextcloud/apps/

SQL query mode

Type sql in the terminal to switch into SQL query mode and run raw SQL statements directly against the Nextcloud database (admin only). Separate statements with ;. Use Shift+Enter to add a new line and Enter to run the whole block in a single request — this matters for scripts like SET vars.x = 'value'; SELECT current_setting('vars.x');, since every statement in one submission runs on the same database connection/session. Type occ to switch back to the normal occ-command mode.

⚠️ There is no undo for DELETE/UPDATE statements — double check what you are about to run, ideally against a non-critical row/user first.

⚠️ Warnings ⚠️

The application is not a real interactive terminal and does not support long running tasks. So if your instance is pretty big, commands like occ files:scan will time out and fail.
Do not use occ maintenance:mode --on, obvious...
