PHP + MySQL Flat File Server and Web App

NOTE: Sandpiper is still in development. Use at your own risk.

Sandpiper is a simple, flat, and responsive web app for uploading and downloading your files. It has a minimalist web interface built with MaterializeCSS and AngularJS that let you quickly search through and manage your uploads.

• Simple: Sandpiper strives to accomplish the goal of hosting files through a web interface with as few frills as possible.
• Flat: To keep things simple, folders are intentionally omitted from Sandpiper. Instead, files are described using text tags.
• Responsive: The Sandpiper UI is built on MaterializeCSS, making it just as usable on mobile devices as it is on desktop.

Sandpiper is designed for and tested on LAMP configurations. The following dependencies are provided for installations on LAMP platforms:

• Apache >= 2.4.7 (not tested on previous versions)
  • Rewrite module (mod_rewrite) enabled
  • .htaccess permission allowed
• PHP >= 5.5
  • mysqli extension enabled
  • gd extension enabled, >=1.8

1. Place into desired server directory.
2. Go to install/, run easy_install.sh and follow the prompts.
3. Run new_user.sh to create an administrative user.
4. Copy config.php.example to config.php, and edit the MySQL connection arguments therein.
5. Ensure that your server user (eg, www-data or http) and group have read and write permissions in the uploads/ directory and everything within it
6. Run bower install to download the necessary dependencies.
7. Create a scheduled job on your server to empty the uploads/.trash directory on a regular interval.

Log into the web interface with the login credentials you supplied in the easy_install.sh script. User accounts may be managed through the web interface.
