* support x-forwarded-for
* option to specify socket permissions and group
* in containers, avoid collision during restart
* add --help-bind with examples
hooks can now interrupt or redirect actions, and initiate
related actions, by printing json on stdout with commands
mainly to mitigate limitations such as sharex/sharex#3992
xbr/xau can redirect uploads to other destinations with `reloc`
and most hooks can initiate indexing or deletion of additional
files by giving a list of vpaths in json-keys `idx` or `del`
there are limitations;
* xbu/xau effects don't apply to ftp, tftp, smb
* xau will intentionally fail if a reloc destination exists
* xau effects do not apply to up2k
also provides more details for hooks:
* xbu/xau: basic-uploader vpath with filename
* xbr/xar: add client ip
compile to bytecode so cpython doesn't have to keep it in memory
ram usage reduced by:
* min: 5.4 MiB (32.6 to 27.2)
* ac/im: 5.2 MiB (39.0 to 33.8)
* dj/iv: 10.6 MiB (67.3 to 56.7)
startup time reduced from:
* min: 1.3s to 0.6s
* ac/im: 1.6s to 0.9s
* dj/iv: 2.0s to 1.1s
image size increased by 4 MiB (min), 6 MiB (ac/im/iv), 9 MiB (dj)
ram usage measured on idle with:
while true; do ps aux | grep -E 'R[S]S|no[-]crt'; read -n1; echo; done
startup time measured with:
time podman run --rm -it localhost/copyparty-min-amd64 --exit=idx
rather than sending each file chunk as a separate HTTP request,
sibling chunks will now be fused together into larger HTTP POSTs
which results in unreasonably huge speed boosts on some routes
( `2.6x` from Norway to US-East, `1.6x` from US-West to Finland )
the `x-up2k-hash` request header now takes a comma-separated list
of chunk hashes, which must all be sibling chunks, resulting in
one large consecutive range of file data as the post body
a new global-option `--u2sz`, default `1,64,96`, sets the target
request size as 64 MiB, allowing the settings ui to specify any
value between 1 and 96 MiB, which is cloudflare's max value
this does not cause any issues for resumable uploads; thanks to the
streaming HTTP POST parser, each chunk will be verified and written
to disk as they arrive, meaning only the untransmitted chunks will
have to be resent in the event of a connection drop -- of course
assuming there are no misconfigured WAFs or caching-proxies
the previous up2k approach of uploading each chunk in a separate HTTP
POST was inefficient in many real-world scenarios, mainly due to TCP
window-scaling behaving erratically in some IXPs / along some routes
a particular link from Norway to Virginia,US is unusably slow for
the first 4 MiB, only reaching optimal speeds after 100 MiB, and
then immediately resets the scale when the request has been sent;
connection reuse does not help in this case
on this route, the basic-uploader was somehow faster than up2k
with 6 parallel uploads; only time i've seen this
hooks can be restricted to users with certain permissions, for example
`--xm aw,notify-send` will only `notify-send` if user has write-access
the user's list of permissions are now also included in the json
that is passed to the hook if enabled; `--xm aw,j,notify-send`
will now also stop parsing flags when encountering a blank value,
allowing to specify any initial arguments to the command:
`--xm aw,j,,notify-send,hey` would run `notify-send` with `hey`
as its first argument, and the json would be the 2nd argument,
similarly `--xm ,notify-send,hey` when no flags specified
this is somewhat explained in `--help-hooks`, but
additional related features are planned in the near future
and will all be better documented when the dust settles
the spec doesn't say what you're supposed to do if the target filename of an upload is already taken, but this seems to be the most common behavior on other ftp servers, and is required by wondows 2000 (otherwise it'll freak out and issue a delete and then not actually upload it, nice)
new option `--ftp-no-ow` restores old default behavior of rejecting upload if target filename exists
* upgrade to partftpy 0.4.0
* workarounds for buggy clients/servers
* improved ipv6 support, especially on macos
* improved robustness on unreliable networks
* make `--tftp4` separate from `--ftp4`
when there was more than ~700 active connections,
* sendfile (non-https downloads) could fail
* mdns and ssdp could fail to reinitialize on network changes
...because `select` can't handle FDs higher than 512 on windows
(1024 on linux/macos), so prefer `poll` where possible (linux/macos)
but apple keeps breaking and unbreaking `poll` in macos,
so use `--no-poll` if necessary to force `select` instead
use sigmasks to block SIGINT, SIGTERM, SIGUSR1 from all other threads
also initiate shutdown by calling sighandler directly,
in case this misses anything and that is still unreliable
(discovered by `--exit=idx` being noop once in a blue moon)
* template-based title formatting
* picture embeds are no longer ant-sized
* `--og-color` sets accent color; default #333
* `--og-s-title` forces default title, ignoring e2t
* add a music indicator to song titles because discord doesn't
currently only being used to workaround discord discarding
query strings in opengraph tags, but i'm sure there will be
plenty more wonderful usecases for this atrocity
if a given filesystem were to disappear (e.g. removable storage)
followed by another filesystem appearing at the same location,
this would not get noticed by up2k in a timely manner
fix this by discarding the mtab cache after `--mtab-age` seconds and
rebuild it from scratch, unless the previous values are definitely
correct (as indicated by identical output from `/bin/mount`)
probably reduces windows performance by an acceptable amount
adds options `--bauth-last` to lower the preference for
taking the basic-auth password in case of conflict,
and `--no-bauth` to entirely disable basic-authentication
if a client is providing multiple passwords, for example when
"logged in" with one password (the `cppwd` cookie) and switching
to another account by also sending a PW header/url-param, then
the default evaluation order to determine which password to use is:
url-param `pw`, header `pw`, basic-auth header, cookie (cppwd/cppws)
so if a client supplies a basic-auth header, it will ignore the cookie
and use the basic-auth password instead, which usually makes sense
but this can become a problem if you have other webservers running
on the same domain which also support basic-authentication
--bauth-last is a good choice for cooperating with such services, as
--no-bauth currently breaks support for the android app...
counterpart of `--s-wr-sz` which existed already
the default (256 KiB) appears optimal in the most popular scenario
(linux host with storage on local physical disk, usually NVMe)
was previously 32 KiB, so large uploads should now use 17% less CPU
also adds sanchecks for values of `--iobuf`, `--s-rd-sz`, `--s-wr-sz`
also adds file-overwrite feature for multipart posts
the default (256 KiB) appears optimal in the most popular scenario
(linux host with storage on local physical disk, usually NVMe)
was previously a mix of 64 and 512 KiB;
now the same value is enforced everywhere
download-as-tar is now 20% faster with the default value
this commit partially fixes the following issue:
if a client manages to escape real-ip detection, copyparty will
try to ban the reverse-proxy instead, effectively banning all clients
this can happen if the configuration says to obtain client real-ip
from a cloudflare header, but the server is not configured to reject
connections from non-cloudflare IPs, so a scanner will eventually
hit the server IP with malicious-looking requests and trigger a ban
copyparty will now continue to process requests from banned IPs until
the header has been parsed and the real-ip has been obtained (or not),
causing an increased server load from malicious clients
assuming the `--xff-src` and `--xff-hdr` config is correct,
this issue should no longer be hitting innocent clients
the old behavior of immediately rejecting a banned IP address
can be re-enabled with the new option `--early-ban`
to abort an upload, refresh the page and access the unpost tab,
which now includes unfinished uploads (sorted before completed ones)
can be configured through u2abort (global or volflag);
by default it requires both the IP and account to match
https://a.ocv.me/pub/g/nerd-stuff/2024-0310-stoltzekleiven.jpg
as this option is very rarely useful, add global-option `--k304` to
unhide the button and/or set it default-enabled
the toggle will still appear when the feature was previously enabled by
a client, and the feature is still default-enabled for all IE clients
* docker: warn if there are config-files in ~/.config/copyparty
because somebody copied their config into
/cfg/copyparty instead of /cfg as intended
* docker: warn if there are no config-files in an included directory
* make misconfigured reverse-proxies more obvious
* explain cors rejections in server log
* indicate cors rejection in error toast
features which should be good to go:
* user groups
* assigning permissions by group
* dynamically created volumes based on username/groupname
* rebuild vfs when new users/groups appear
but several important features still pending;
* detect dangerous configurations
* dynamic vol below readable path
* remember volumes created during previous runs
* helps prevent unintended access
* correct filesystem-scan on startup
* allow mounting `/` (the entire filesystem) as a volume
* not that you should (really, you shouldn't)
* improve `-v` helptext
* change IdP group symbol to @ because % is used for file inclusion
* not technically necessary but is less confusing in docs
some clients (clonezilla-webdav) rapidly create and delete files;
this fails if copyparty is still hashing the file (usually the case)
and the same thing can probably happen due to antivirus etc
add global-option --rm-retry (volflag rm_retry) specifying
for how long (and how quickly) to keep retrying the deletion
default: retry for 5sec on windows, 0sec (disabled) on everything else
because this is only a problem on windows
* webdav: extend applesan regex with more stuff to exclude
* on macos, set applesan as default `--no-idx` to avoid indexing them
(they didn't show up in search since they're dotfiles, but still)
* permission `.` grants dotfile visibility if user has `r` too
* `-ed` will grant dotfiles to all `r` accounts (same as before)
* volflag `dots` likewise
also drops compatibility for pre-0.12.0 `-v` syntax
(`-v .::red` will no longer translate to `-v .::r,ed`)
connections from outside the specified list of IP prefixes are rejected
(docker-friendly alternative to -i 127.0.0.1)
also mkdir any missing folders when logging to file
add argument --hdr-au-usr which specifies a HTTP header to read
usernames from; entirely bypasses copyparty's password checks
for http/https clients (ftp/smb are unaffected)
users must exist in the copyparty config, passwords can be whatever
just the first step but already a bit useful on its own,
more to come in a few months
* cpp_uptime is now a gauge
* cpp_bans is now cpp_active_bans (and also a gauge)
and other related fixes:
* stop emitting invalid cpp_disk_size/free for offline volumes
* support overriding the spec-mandatory mimetype with ?mime=foo
* fix toast/tooltip colors on splashpage
* properly warn if --ah-cli or --ah-gen is used without --ah-alg
* support ^D during --ah-cli
* improve flavor texts
not even the deprecationwarning that got silently generated burning
20~30% of all CPU-time without actually displaying it anywhere, nice
python 3.12.0 is now only 5% slower than 3.11.6
also fixes some other, less-performance-fatal deprecations
never bonk anyone with read-access (able to see directory-listing)
or write-only (not able to retrieve any files at all) due to
either --ban-404 or --ban-url
fixes accidental ban when webdav-uploading files which
match any of the --ban-url patterns (#55)
also default-enables --ban-404 since it is now generally safe
(even when up2k is in turbo mode), plus make turbo smart enough to
disengage when necessary
this carries some intentional side-effects; each thumbnail format will
now be stored in its own subfolder under .hist/th/ making cleanup more
effective (jpeg and webm are dropped separately)
