leaky-bag-of-holding

An ephemeral file sharing solution with automatic file deletion. Files are deleted on a first in first out basis.

Database Setup:

$ sudo -u postgres -i
$ psql

# create database boh;
# create user boh;
# grant all privileges on database boh to boh;

Create the db schema by running:

./db.py init

Config Setup:

mv config.py.example config.py

max_content_length and max_usable_disk_space are a number of bytes (defaults are 1MB and 5GB)

files_domain is the domain that you're using to actually serve the files that are uploaded

User Management:

./db.py create username password
./db.py delete username

Nginx setup:

You'll need to set up two configs, one which is hosting the files and one which is serving the actual website.

webserver sample config:

server {
  server_name web.server.domain;
  client_max_body_size 100M;
  
  root /file/path/to/your/project/;
  
  location / {
    include proxy_params;
    proxy_pass https://127.0.0.1:5000/;
  }
}

File host sample config:

server {
  server_name file.host.domain;
  root /path/to/the/project/uploads/;
  
  location / {
    try_files $uri @dev;
  }
  
  location @dev {
    return 302 https://web.server.domain;
  }
  
  location /favicon.ico {
    return 302 https://web.server.domain/static/favicon.png
  }
}
