swift-upload-runner – better browser file upload and download for swift-browser-ui

swift-upload-runner makes it possible to properly batch upload from browser into object storage backends using Openstack Swift API. It will also make possible proper container uploads without plaintext passwords or tokens, to prevent token expiration.

Additionally, the runner contains functionality for downloading whole containers as an archive without intermediary storage, as well as proxying downloads from shared containers, i.e. containers where the project has access via an ACL entry.

Installation

pip install .
