ddrv

Turn Discord into infinite cloud storage with support for HTTP, WebDAV, and FTP.

About

ddrv is a Go application that exploits Discord's feature of unlimited file attachments (up to 25MB per file) to provide virtually infinite cloud storage. It uses an FTP frontend as well as HTTP and WebDAV, allowing users to upload any size of file. Behind the scene, ddrv cuts the file into 25MB chunks and uploads it to Discord, all the while maintaining the file's metadata in a PostgreSQL database.

Highlights

• Theoretically infinite file size
• Unlimited storage space.
• Support for multiple protocols including HTTP, WebDAV, and FTP, which ensures compatibility with a variety of devices and operating systems.
• Robust frontend that works with numerous clients such as web browsers, Filezilla, RClone, Windows Explorer, Ubuntu (Nautilus), and many more.
• PostgreSQL-based file metadata management: File metadata is systematically stored and managed in a PostgreSQL database, enabling efficient file access and manipulation.
• HTTP supports partial downloads (range headers), so you can use multi-threaded download managers and stream video directly to video players.

Prerequisites

• PostgreSQL (Data provider - To store file metadata)
• Discord WebhookURLs (To store actual file data)

Getting Started

• Navigate to the Release page and download the latest release suitable for your platform.
• Decompress the binary file and initialize ddrv with the command provided below:

  ./ddrv --dburl=postgres://user:pass@host:port/dbname?sslmode=false --webhooks=webhookURL1,webhookURL2

• An FTP server will launch on ftp://localhost:2525
• An HTTP server will launch on http://localhost:2526
• An WebDav server will launch on webdav://localhost:2527

Build from Source

• Ensure that you have Go (version 1.20 or newer) installed on your system.
• Clone the repository:

  git clone https://github.com/forscht/ddrv.git

• Navigate to the cloned directory:

  cd ddrv

• Build the project:

  go build -race -o ddrv ./cmd/ddrv
  # If you're on linux and make is installed
  # make build

• Run the executable:

  ./ddrv --dburl=postgres://user:pass@host:port/dbname?sslmode=false --webhooks=webhookURL1,webhookURL2
