Ruff provides a pop-up web server to Retrieve/Upload Files Fast over LAN,
|
||
|
|
inspired by WOOF (Web Offer One File) by Simon Budig.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It's based on the idea that not every device has <insert neat file transfer
|
||
|
|
tool here>, but just about every device that can network has an HTTP client,
|
||
|
|
making a hyper-simple HTTP server a viable option for file transfer with
|
||
|
|
zero notice or setup as long as *somebody* has a copy of RUFF.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Why create RUFF when WOOF exists? WOOF is no longer in the debian repos and
|
||
|
|
it's easier to `go get` a tool than it is to hunt down Simon's website for
|
||
|
|
the latest copy.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Installation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`go get git.tilde.town/diff/ruff`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Assuming $GOPATH is in $PATH:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`ruff "cool thing.jpg" # to send a cool file`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
and
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`ruff -u # to receive a cool file`
|
