# Fling
Have you ever missed the simplicity of an USB Stick when sharing data over the
net?
Zero-friction sharing is a surprisingly unsolved problem. There's no reasonably
ubiquitous solution installed on everybody's machine. Online providers are often
packed with features, but miss out on things like direct download urls, a space
for others to easily _upload_ to you, or require registration from all
participants. I don't remember any of these things being a problem with USB 🤔.
Fling is a self-hosted file share. It is simple like USB without missing out on
the good parts of the web:
- Drop files on a fling and share the URL. That's it. The fling way of life.
Other features include:
- Choose your own, meaningful name for your sharing URL
the good parts of a web app:
- Just drop files on a Fling and share the URL
- Choose your own name for your share-URL
- Share a direct download link
- Choose to let others upload files just as simple
- Let others upload files
- Protect your fling by a password - no registration required
- Let a fling expire after a date or a number of clicks (or keep it forever)
- Let a fling expire after a date or a number of clicks
# Fling is a API
It gets even better!
# API
Fling is distributed as both, a backend service and a web interface. You can use
the backend on its own with any [HTTP client](examples).
Fling is a backend service and a web interface. But you can use anything else
that speaks HTTP if you prefer. In fact, we generate and publish a javascript
and python client for the Fling API on every build. If you like it bare-bones
there is also a querysheet in the examples folder with raw HTTP calls.
Per default Fling publishes a Swagger UI page and an OpenAPI spec. You can find
them here:
Fling also has a code-first OpenAPI compliant spec. O mon Dieu, it just checks
_all_ the boxes!
``` http
http://<host>:<port>/swagger-ui.html
http://<host>:<port>/v3/api-docs
```
# Fling as a container
It gets even even better better!
If starting the fling container locally, the default `<host>:<port>` is
http://localhost:3000. You can also find a recent version of it via
https://fling.friedl.net/swagger-ui.html and
https://fling.friedl.net/v3/api-docs.
Fling is self-hosted. But it is packaged up in a container for easy deployment.
Run `docker run --rm -p3000:3000 arminfriedl/fling` and go to
http://localhost:3000. The default admin user is `adminName:adminPassword`.
# Starting Fling from Docker
A Fling container is provided at https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/arminfriedl/fling.
1. Run `docker run --rm -p3000:3000 arminfriedl/fling`
2. Go to the default http://localhost:3000
3. Log in with `adminName:adminPassword`.
## Configuring Fling
The Fling container can be configured by environment variables.
Web interface configuration (`config.js`/`config.js.template`; will be replaced
by `envsubst` when the container starts up):
The web interface configuration ([config.js](web/fling/public/config.js)/[config.js.template](container/var/www/fling/config.js.template)) will be
filled by `envsubst` when the container starts up.
``` sh
# The base URL of the Fling API service
FLING_API_BASE=http://localhost:3000
# Log level of the application
FLING_LOG_LEVEL=warn
# Max. upload size in bytes
# Max. upload size in bytes. Checked on client side.
FLING_FILESIZE=209715200
```
Fling service configuration (`application-prod.yml`). Standard spring
configuration, can be set by environement variables or any other
[externalization facilities of spring boot](https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/spring-boot-features.html#boot-features-external-config)).
Please refer to `application-prod.yml` for configuration possibilites.
The Fling service configuration is a standard spring configuration. It can be
