node-sharex-server is a ShareX upload server which is easy to setup and to use. Currently node-sharex-server provides the following features:
- File-sharing:
- Uploading files (also images)
- Allowing only configured file extensions (for more safety)
NOTE: You need git (to clone this repo) and nodejs (with npm) to run this program.
First we have to clone this repo. You can do that by typing git clone git@github.com:ravi0lii/node-sharex-server.git
(for ssh) or git clone https://github.com/ravi0lii/node-sharex-server.git
(for https). After going into the directory, we have to install the dependencies. Type npm install
to do so. You can start node-sharex-server now by typing node app.js
. You could use e.g. pm2 to run node-sharex-server in the background.
NOTE: To make changes effective, you have to restart the server!
You can configure the server in the config.json
file. Options:
port
: The port the server should listen on.keys
: You can add keys (authentication tokens) here.fileSizeLimit
: You can set the file size limit (in bytes) here. Example: You want to set the limit to 100 mb. That means we have to change the value to 100 (MB) * 1024 (kB) * 1024 (B) = 104857600 (B).fileNameLength
: The length of the generated file names.useLocalStaticServe
: Use the express.static middleware to serve the uploaded files.staticFileServerUrl
: The url that should be sent to the ShareX client.serverUrl
: The url where you can reach the server without the finalizing slash (/).uploadDirectory
: The directory that should be used for saving the files.ssl
: SSL-related optionsuseSSL
:privateKeyPath
: The path to the ssl private key.certificatePath
: The path to the ssl certificate.
