Description

A super simple web-based file manager written for node. Hopefully, this will be made modular so it can be dropped into other projects at will.

Requirements

• See package.json

Install

npm install

or step-by-step
git clone https://github.com/seanstar12/nodeFileBrowser.git; 
cd nodeFileBrowser; 
npm install;

Features

Update:

• I actually wrote a ton more features, but due to not commiting, I lost it during a server upgrade.
• Now that this actually has folowers, I'll commit when I create.

Current:

• Ability to allow / ban hidden files
• Set a custom directory.

Future:

• Create users and manage permissions
• Create guest accounts with access timeouts
• Add a public folder / dropbox (can upload but cannot see files)
• Ability to upload / delete / rename / etc..
• Zip multiple files and download all at once
• • more?

Chopping Block (My todo list):

• Rework '/' to a function based operation
• Change the reading of filetypes to a list of known types
• Need to finalize signup page
• Add proper routes to handle/manage users
• Setup some sort of DB and get rid of config file
• Bug: Fails to load on empty directory

Use

Should be straight forward. Configure the options and port inside of app.js. Enjoy.
