quickserve - easy ad-hoc file sharing

nierro · 2014-03-26 16:44:49

Hi xyne!
Thanks for this great piece of sw
I'm having troubles since, well don't know since when exactly. I only know 2 weeks ago quickserve was working pretty well.

quickserve --multicast /home/federico/share_dir/
/usr/bin/python3: Error while finding spec for 'ThreadedServers.MulticastQuickserve' (<class 'ImportError'>: No module named 'ThreadedServers')

pacman -Sl xyne-x86_64 | grep "installato"
xyne-x86_64 python3-threaded_servers 2014-1 [installato]
xyne-x86_64 quickserve 2013.5-1 [installato]
xyne-x86_64 reflector 2014-3 [installato: 2014-4]

(reflector from community)
I have python from testing (testing/python 3.4.0-2), i guess this is the cause, isn't it?

Again, thanks for your work

Yep. The packages need to be rebuilt with Python 3.4. I will update the ones in my repo once Python 3.4 is officially released for Arch.

Ok, thank you very much

New option to recursively transfer directories:

  --tar {none,gz,bz2,xz} [{none,gz,bz2,xz} ...]
                        Enable directories to be transfered as optionally
                        compressed tar archives. This option accepts the
                        compression types to enable.

I've added Avahi support alongside multicast support for peer detection. There are probably still some bugs to work out but it works so far in my initial tests.

Since switching to NixOS I always missed quickserve.
Now I packaged it, I hope you don't mind https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/48083
I haven't packaged avahi support though. Maybe I will do it in the future.

@Lassulus
I don't mind at all. It's fun to see my projects show up on other distros. I've added a link to the project page. Thanks for creating a package on NixOS.

It seems to be a really nice tool !

I can't launch quickserve when the ipv6 stack is disabled and can't find a way to force ipv4-only. Is it possible ?

With ipv6 enabled, it works :

PeeredQuickserveServer
  PID              17665
  Addresses       
    br0:  192.168.1.110
    br0:  fe80::4216:7eff:feaa:e879
    eno1: fe80::4216:7eff:feaa:e879
    lo:   127.0.0.1
    lo:   ::1
  Port             8000
  Filelist         None
  Filterlist       None
  MOTD             None
  Upload directory None
  Tar              Disabled
  Paths           
    antoine
      /home/antoine
  Multicast        False
  Avahi            False
  Static Peers     None

br0 is a bridge tight to eno1.

I can't understand how to force listening on one address only, despites the -a option.

$ quickserve -a 192.168.1.110 .

The error should be fixed with today's release of python3-threaded_servers. Please test it and let me know if it works as expected. Thanks for reporting the error.

SubS0 · 2019-01-29 15:04:58

Yes Xyne, it now works as expected with -a option.
Thanks a lot, it is a very helpful software.

@Xyne mate I love this app but from some time I'm facing issue with `--auth` parameter: when I pass `--auth login password_plain` they simply don't work

What doesn't work? You can access the server without the prompt, or you can't access it at all?
HTTP authentication works for me with the current version.
