Simple File Server

A very simple server that exposes a file system through a REST API.

But Why?

It's a simple way of serving files across systems.

Say you have a Windows and Linux machine, and you want to share a folder between them. Typically you would have to use a network share, but that's not always possible.

This server allows you to serve files from a local folder, and then access them from any machine that has access to the server.

It is highly recommended that you do not use this server behind a proxy over HTTPS with the intent of serving files to the public internet!

While steps are being taken to make this server more secure, it's not intended to be a replacement for dedicated file servers such as FTP, Samba, S3 etc. It's more to act as an intermediate bridge while other technologies are deployed and established.

Api Documentation

The api is documented using OpenApi and Scalar, navigate to host:port/scalar to view it.
