Feature Request: OnlyOffice Document Server Integration

[mikshepard]

Some type of office integration into Owncloud has been becoming an increasing demand in our company, looking in to what's available currently, I'm hoping to see an app that could use the OnlyOffice Document Server API integration for handling opening files from Owncloud. Onlyoffice is broken into two parts, a Community Server (which does allow access to Owncloud via webdav, but our endusers are in need a more simple solution) and a stand-alone Document Server which handles the online editing of office files via an API. I was wondering about an app to call the Document Server when a office-extension file is clicked.

I'm aware of the Collabora Online that is in development currently, however the spreadsheet handling is much more robust in OnlyOffice and is out of development currently. Perhaps this could be a temporary solution until Collabora becomes more stable and released?

I'm interested in opening a Bounty on this and am curious if this would be something do-able within reason for a developer? And if so, what a reasonable bounty would be?

I looked at this. In all it seems like a relatively easy task if you know PHP. They even have PHP sample code to show how to load/save documents. Downside is that I don't really know PHP.

With the onlyoffice documentserver integration, owncloud could compete with office365 and google docs :)

onlyoffice seems to be a very nice piece of software.
