Link Sharing Service

Building

$ go install storj.io/storj/cmd/linksharing

Configuring

Development

Default development configuration has the link sharing service hosted on localhost:8080 serving plain HTTP.

$ linksharing setup --defaults dev

Production

To configure the link sharing service for production, run the setup command using the release defaults. You must also provide the public URL for the sharing service, which is used to construct URLs returned to clients. Since there is currently no server affinity for requests, the URL can point to a pool of servers:

$ linksharing setup --defaults release --public-url <PUBLIC URL>

Default release configuration has the link sharing service hosted on :8443 serving HTTPS using a server certificate (server.crt.pem) and key (server.key.pem) residing in the working directory where the linksharing service is run.

You can modify the configuration file or use the --cert-file and --key-file flags to configure an alternate location for the server keypair.

In order to run the link sharing service in release mode serving HTTP, you must clear the certificate and key file configurables:

$ linksharing setup --defaults release --public-url <PUBLIC URL> --cert-file="" --key-file="" --address=":8080"

WARNING HTTP is only recommended if you are doing TLS termination on the same machine running the link sharing service as the link sharing service serves unencrypted user data.

Running

After configuration is complete, running the link sharing is as simple as:

$ linksharing run
