.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 intended for temporary file transfer mostly
|
|
in the local network. It aims to make transfering single files as painless as
|
|
possible and to replace tar/netcat solutions.
|
|
|
|
With just a file as argument servefile serves just that one file and redirects
|
|
all HTTP requests to that file.
|
|
|
|
Uploads can be done with curl, wget (see EXAMPLES) or a normal browser.
|
|
In upload mode with \fB\-u\fR servefile creates a directory and saves all
|
|
uploaded files into that directory. When uploading with curl or wget the
|
|
filename is extracted from 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.
