filemanager - a caddy plugin
filemanager provides WebDAV features and a file managing interface within the specified directory and it can be used to upload, delete, preview, rename and edit your files within that directory. It is an implementation of hacdias/filemanager library.
Note that if you are handling large files you might run into troubles due to the defaults of timeouts plugin. Check its documentation to learn more about that plugin. For information about the working of filemanager itself, go to the main repository.
Get Started
To start using this plugin you just need to go to the download Caddy page and choose filemanager in the directives section. For further information on how Caddy works refer to its documentation.
The default credentials are admin for the user and the password. It is highy recommended to change this after logging in for the first time and to use HTTPS. In the web interface, you can create more users and define their own permissions.
Syntax
filemanager [baseurl] [scope] {
database path
}
All of the options above are optional.
- baseurl is the URL where you will access the File Manager interface. Defaults to
/. - scope is the path, relative or absolute, to the directory you want to browse in. Defaults to
./. - path is the database path where the settings that aren't included in the Caddyfile will be stored. By default, the database will be stored on
.caddyfolder and its name will be an hashed combination of the host and thebaseurl. It is highly recommended to set this option. Otherwise, whenever you change the host or thebaseurl, your settings will be lost or you will need to point to the previous database.
