The webapp is a web server that displays a shiny interface.
|
|
|
|
## security
|
|
|
|
* Listen only to localhost. **done**
|
|
* Instruct the user's web browser to open an url that contains a secret
|
|
token. This guards against other users on the same system. **done**
|
|
(I would like to avoid passwords or other authentication methods,
|
|
it's your local system.)
|
|
* Alternative for Linux at least would be to write a small program using
|
|
GTK+ Webkit, that runs the webapp, and can know what user ran it, avoiding
|
|
needing authentication.
|
|
|
|
## interface
|
|
|
|
* list of files uploading and downloading
|
|
* progress bars for each file
|
|
* drag and drop to reorder
|
|
* cancel and pause
|
|
* keep it usable w/o javascript, and accessible to blind, etc
|
|
|
|
## other features
|
|
|
|
* there could be a UI to export a file, which would make it be served up
|
|
over http by the web app
|
|
* Display any relevant warning messages. One is the `inotify max_user_watches`
|
|
exceeded message.

## implementation
|
|
|
|
Hope to use Yesod.
|
|
|
|
TODO: Ensure that Yesod will work on arm. Necessary for later Android port.
|
|
Will its template haskell cause a problem? Does new GHC support TH on ARM?
|
|
Will it use too much memory or be too slow?
|
|
|
|
Hopefully Yesod comes with some good UI widgets. Otherwise, need to use
|
|
Jquery or similar.
