Goal

A simple but full-featured file manager using HTML5.

  • Should replace HTTP & FTP & Samba on a LAN.
  • Simple code base, easy to extend & adapt to specific requirements.

Running it

uwsgi --ini uwsgi_conf.ini

or

python run.py

Sprint 0 : architecture

Current choices

  • Compatibility

    • WSGI for the web (bottle just looks fine)
    • Compatible with python >= 2.6 (or 2.5 ?)
    • Should be tested with uWSGI for the "production" mode
    • Should be tested with (pick one):
      • wsgiref
      • paste
      • waitress
  • ICanHaz

    To render HTML (mustache-powered templates)

  • KickStrap

    To handles all the HTML5 boilerplate

Not chosed yet

  • Database

    Stored json (in .weye files) is the way for the POC, to be changed

  • Factory

    The factory pattern is not implemented yet. We may use the standard mimetypes module from python.

  • UI

    The page layout isn't decided yet, same for the possible actions

Sprint 1 : browseable files

Sprint 2 : upload

Sprint 3 : nice mimetype-based factories

Sprint 4 : lightweight ACL

Sprint 5 : custom handlers for custom extensions

Interesting projects

Mice could handle keyboard shortcuts

Isotope to display things in a nice way instead of a plain list

EpicEditor looks very nice to edit text & markdown documents
