.SH DISCLAIMER
|
||||
Do not use this as a normal webserver. This server is optimized for running
|
||||
a short time and to send files to other people, not for doing performant
|
||||
static file serving.
|
||||
|
||||
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
servefile is a small HTTP-server indented for transitional file transfer
|
||||
mostly in the local network. It aims to make transfer of single files as
|
||||
painless as possible.
|
||||
|
||||
Without any options servefile serves just one file and redirects all HTTP
|
||||
requests to that one file.
|
||||
|
||||
Uploads can be done with curl, wget (see EXAMPLES) or a normal browser.
|
||||
In upload mode with \fI\-u\fR servefile creates a directory and saves all
|
||||
uploads into that directory. When uploading with curl or wget the filename
|
||||
is taken out of the path part of the url used for the upload.
|
||||
|
||||
For SSL support python-openssl (pyssl) needs to be installed. If no key and
|
||||
cert is given, servefile will generate a keypair for you and display its
|
||||
fingerprint.

||||
