Uni - Open source locally hosted file storage platform

Uni is a free and open source file storage platform that allows you to use your own infrastructure to store and share files.

NOTE: This is a work in progress. I am not a rust server developer, so I'm sure there are many bugs and missing features. If you find any, please open an issue.

Demo & Setup Tutorial

Running the project locally

Prerequisites

• Rust
• Node.js

Setup

1. Install the dependencies for frontend and run:

cd frontend
npm install
npm run dev
cd ..

Create a .env file in the frontend file with the following content:

NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL="http://localhost:7777"

Dont forget to change the port to the one you are using (can be changed in the config.json file)

2. Install the dependencies for backend and run:

cd backend
cargo run
cd ..

3. Configuring the server

You can configure the server by editing the config.json file. The file contains the following fields:

• username: The username for the server.
• password: The password for the server.
• store: The path to the store (storage) directory.
• log_file: The path to the log file.
• server_port: The port to use for the server.

You can change where the config file is through the

let config_path = "/Users/incog/Desktop/uni/config.json";

variable in the server/src/main.rs file.

If you change the config file, you will need to restart the server for the changes to take effect.

4. Open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:3000

Server should be running on http://localhost:7777 by default and can be changed through the config.json file.
