A simple, lightweight, and containerized file server built with Go.

This project provides a basic HTTP server that serves static files from a specified directory. It's designed to be run in a Docker container and is configurable via environment variables.

• Serves static files over HTTP.
• Configurable port and upload directory.
• Containerized with Docker for easy deployment.
• Multi-stage Docker build for a small final image size.
• Includes a docker-compose.yml for easy setup.

• Docker
• Docker Compose (optional, but recommended)

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/ohidurbappy/fileserver.git
   cd fileserver

2. Using Docker Compose (recommended):

   docker-compose up -d

3. Using Docker:

   docker build -t go-fileserver .
   docker run -d -p 3000:3000 -v $(pwd)/uploads:/app/uploads --name go-fileserver go-fileserver

Once the server is running, you can access the files in the uploads directory by navigating to http://localhost:3000/uploads/ in your browser.

Any files you place in the local ./uploads directory will be accessible.

The following environment variables can be used to configure the server:

These can be set in the docker-compose.yml file or via the -e flag with docker run.
