# File Uploader
A simple file uploader application that allows authenticated users to upload, list, and delete files.
The application uses PHP and a Python authentication service running on Apache2.
## Prerequisites
- Apache2, configured, up and running
- PHP 8.1 or higher
- Required PHP extensions: `php-json`, `php-curl`
Hint:
```
sudo apt update
sudo apt install apache2
sudo apt install php libapache2-mod-php
```
## Installation
For simplicity, I'll use my current Ubuntu instance user name, you should replace by yours.
### Clone
```
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/uploader.git
cd uploader
```
### or download this repository
```
wget https://github.com/sensboston/uploader/archive/refs/heads/master.zip
unzip master.zip -d uploader
mv uploader/uploader-master/* uploader/
rm -r uploader/uploader-master
rm master.zip
```
### Configure PHP
Ensure the following PHP settings are in your **/etc/php/8.1/apache2/php.ini**:
```
log_errors = On
error_log = /var/log/php_errors.log
```
Also check for max upload file/post size limits in **/etc/php/8.1/apache2/php.ini** (adjust to your needs, like 10G):
```
upload_max_filesize = 10M
post_max_size = 10M
```
### Create the upload directory and set the necessary permissions:
```
sudo mkdir -p /var/www/html/upload
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/upload
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/upload
```
### Do not forget to add proper permissions to www-data (used by apache & php)
```
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/upload
sudo chmod -R 775 /var/www/html/upload
```
### Create application directory at webroot (or configure app/site):
(note: with my Apache configuration, I just need to create a subdirectory)
```
sudo mkdir -p /var/www/html/uploader
```
### Edit file config.php and adjust variables
(website name, time zone etc.)
```
sudo nano /home/ubuntu/uploader/config.php
```
### Copy all app files (html, php & js) to the app folder:
```
sudo cp /home/ubuntu/uploader/*.* /var/www/html/uploader/
```
### Restart Apache to apply changes:
```
sudo systemctl restart apache2
```
## Usage
Open your web browser and navigate to https://yourserveraddress/uploader
Enter your username and password to authenticate.
Choose a file to upload and click the "Upload" button.
The uploaded files will be listed on the page, and you can delete them using the "Delete" button.

## Issues / TODO
- Add checking upload size before starting upload.
