Share

Have you ever wanted to share some files with a buddy on your lan, and had to go through all sorts of hassle to get that working?

Share is a simple cli binary that will create a file server in the current directory so that you can share your files, and close down the server quickly.

Install

To install make sure you have go installed, then it's as easy as getting this library:

go get github.com/murphysean/share

Sharing

Let's say you have some code you want to show your buddy in your workspace:

cd workspace/code
share

This will spin up a file server in that directory and tell you how your buddy can connect.

You can also customize the listing interface and port

share -h 192.168.1.5 -p 8080
share -p 8080

And finally you can put in the directory you wish to share

share ../someotherdir
share /home/sean

Usage

share [--host host][--port port] [dir]
share [-h host] [-p port] [dir]

• host: Host is really the interface to bind to for listing. Defaults to all ("").
• port: The port to serve on. Defaults to an os assigned free port ("0").
• dir: The directory to serve from. Defaults to the current working directory.
