+
+==================================
+file/share: advances files sharing
+==================================
+
+``share`` groups commands for listing file available on a device/service, sharing a file
+or directory, and inviting people to retrieve files.
+
+.. _jp-file_share_list:
+
+list
+====
+
+List files available on a device or sharing service. You mainly have to specify the jid of
+the device/service where the files are stored (if jid is omitted, your own jid will be
+used, so you can check what you are sharing).
+
+.. note::
+
+   you have to use the full jid of the device if you want to list files available on a
+   device.
+
+You may specify a path using ``-d PATH, --path PATH``.
+
+File and directories are printed with a different colour if you use default output.
+
+examples
+--------
+
+List files shared from a device (note that we use a full jid here)::
+
+  $ jp file share list louise@example.org/some_resource
+
+List files available on a sharing service at the path ``/photos``::
+
+  $ jp file share list -d photos files.example.org
+
+Louise wants to list the file shared by Pierre::
+
+  $ jp file share list pierre@files.example.org
+
+path
+====
+
+Share a local file or directory with a list of entities, or publicly. The files can then
+be listed or requested using jp-file_share_list_ or :ref:`jp-file_request`.
+
+You specify the file or directory the positional ``path`` argument. By default the name of
+the file/directory is used, but you can give a different one using ``-n NAME, --name
+NAME``.
+
+You can specify entities allowed to see your files using ``-j JID, --jid JID`` as many
+time as necessary. If you don't specify any entity, the file will only be accessible by
+your own devices. If you want to make your file accessible to everybody, use ``--public``
+(note that this means that your file is accessible to the world, i.e. also to people you
+don't know, so use this option carefully).
+
+examples
+--------
+
+Share the file ``interesting_doc.odt`` with Pierre and Louise::
+
+  $ jp file share path -j pierre@example.net -j louise@example.org interesting_doc.odt
+
+Imagine that you have built a weather station and want to make its data public. You can
+share the directory ``~/weather_station_data`` with the world, using the name ``public
+weather data``::
+
+  $ jp file share path --public --name "public weather data" ~/weather_station_data
+
+invite
+======
+
+This command send an invitation for a file sharing repository to an XMPP entity.
+
+The invitation is a non standard (yet?) way to notify somebody of the existence of a files
+repository.
+
+Beside the positional arguments ``service`` and ``jid``, which are respectively the
+service where is the files repository and the jid of the entity to invite, you mainly have
+to indicate the path and namespace of your repository, using ``-P PATH, --path PATH`` and
+``N NAMESPACE, --namespace NAMESPACE``.
+
+Use the ``-t {files,photos}, --type {files,photos}`` to specify if you repository is a
+generic files repository or a photo album.
+
+Optionally, you can associate a thumbnail to the repository ``with -T THUMBNAIL,
+--thumbnail THUMBNAIL``. This is recommended to have more user friendly representation of
+the album in e.g. Libervia.
+
+example
+-------
+
+Pierre wants to invite Louise to view his ``summer holidays`` photo album::
+
+  $ jp file share invite -P "photos/summer holidays" -t photos pierre@files.example.net
+  louise@example.org
