• Pillow (requires py2.7 or py3.5+)

install on android

install Termux (see ocv.me/termux) and then copy-paste this into Termux (long-tap) all at once:

apt update && apt -y full-upgrade && termux-setup-storage && apt -y install curl && cd && curl -L https://github.com/9001/copyparty/raw/master/scripts/copyparty-android.sh > copyparty-android.sh && chmod 755 copyparty-android.sh && ./copyparty-android.sh -h
echo $?

after the initial setup (and restarting bash), you can launch copyparty at any time by running "copyparty" in Termux

dev env setup

python3 -m venv .env
. .env/bin/activate
pip install jinja2  # mandatory deps
pip install Pillow  # thumbnail deps
pip install black bandit pylint flake8  # vscode tooling

how to release

in the scripts folder:

• run make -C deps-docker to build all dependencies
• create github release with make-tgz-release.sh
• upload to pypi with make-pypi-release.(sh|bat)

todo

roughly sorted by priority

• look into android thumbnail cache file format
• support pillow-simd
• cache sha512 chunks on client
• symlink existing files on upload
• figure out the deal with pixel3a not being connectable as hotspot
  • pixel3a having unpredictable 3sec latency in general :||||
