- Display syntax-highlighted code with in-place editing
- Documented API with keys if need to restrict uploads (can use linx-client for uploading through command-line)
- Torrent download of files using web seeding
- File expiry, deletion key, and random filename options
- Grab the latest binary from the releases
- Run
./linx-server
All configuration options are accepted either as arguments or can be placed in an ini-style file as such:
maxsize = 4294967296
allowhotlink = true
# etc...and then invoke linx-server -config path/to/config.ini

-certfile path/to/your.crt-- Path to the ssl certificate (required if you want to use the https server)-keyfile path/to/your.key-- Path to the ssl key (required if you want to use the https server)
-realip-- let linx-server know you (nginx, etc) are providing the X-Real-IP and/or X-Forwarded-For headers.
-fastcgi-- serve through fastcgi
-authfile path/to/authfile-- (optionally) require authorization for upload/delete by providing a newline-separated file of scrypted auth keys-remoteauthfile path/to/remoteauthfile-- (optionally) require authorization for remote uploads by providing a newline-separated file of scrypted auth keys
A helper utility linx-genkey is provided which hashes keys to the format required in the auth files.
When files expire, access is disabled immediately, but the files and metadata
will persist on disk until someone attempts to access them. If you'd like to
automatically clean up files that have expired, you can use the included
linx-cleanup utility. To run it automatically, use a cronjob or similar type
of scheduled task.
You should be careful to ensure that only one instance of linx-client runs at
a time to avoid unexpected behavior. It does not implement any type of locking.
-filespath files/-- Path to stored uploads (default is files/)-metapath meta/-- Path to stored information about uploads (default is meta/)-nologs-- (optionally) disable deletion logs in stdout
Linx-server supports being deployed in a subdirectory (ie. example.com/mylinx/) as well as on its own (example.com/).
A suggested deployment is running nginx in front of linx-server serving through fastcgi.
This allows you to have nginx handle the TLS termination for example.
An example configuration:
server {
...
server_name yourlinx.example.org;
...
client_max_body_size 4096M;
location / {
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:8080;
include fastcgi_params;
}
}
And run linx-server with the -fastcgi option.
Run linx-server with the -certfile path/to/cert.file and -keyfile path/to/key.file options.
Run linx-server normally.
First, build the image:
docker build -t linx-server .
You'll need some directories for the persistent storage. For the purposes of this example, we will use /media/meta and /media/files.
Then, run it:
docker run -p 8080:8080 -v /media/meta:/data/meta -v /media/files:/data/files linx-server
Any help is welcome, PRs will be reviewed and merged accordingly.
