[Feature request] Import project dataset with server's share file instead of select in local pc's file

[shuseido]

My actions before raising this issue

• Read/searched the docs
• Searched past issues

Current Behaviour

• Open page Project then click import dataset
• Select share file(s) in FileManagerContainer (tab = "Connected file share")
• Click OK

Possible Solution

• New function to import with sting file path instead of file
• or A class or method can get a File (object) when give it a file path
• or FileManagerContainer can config method getFile() to return array of File(object) when select "share" tab

Context

• I added FileManagerContainer in Import Dataset Modal, but not able to Import the dataset when select file in "connected share file" because it's a string (type) not a File (type)
• I 've already revise some functon that checking extentsion of file but the import process still run method uploadFile and raise an error "Error: Request failed with status code 400. {"dataset_file":["No file was submitted."]}."
• Please guide me a way to add a function to import dataset (in cvat/apps/dataset_manager/formats/my_custom_format) by passing a file_path instead of src_file.

Your Environment

• Git hash commit: (just fix local, I dont commit any)
• Docker version docker version: 20.10.17
• Operating System and version (e.g. Linux, Windows, MacOS): Ubuntu 20.04
• cvat version: 2.0

Hi @shuseido, We've implemented the approach to configure where you want to import/export annotations/backups. This approach can also be extended to support share source.
