38 Jirafeau is a fork of the original project [Jyraphe](http://home.gna.org/jyraphe/) based on the 0.5 (stable version) with a **lot** of modifications.
39
40 As it's original project, Jirafeau is made in the [KISS](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_principle) way (Keep It Simple, Stupid).
41
42 Jirafeau project won't evolve to a file manager and will focus to keep a very few dependencies.

56 ## Installation
57
58 This shows how to install Jirafeau by your own, it's quite simple but you can
59 also use a [docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/mojo42/jirafeau/) or build
60 it yourself. Check [docker folder](docker/README.md) for more informations.
61
62 System requirements:
63 - PHP >= 5.6
64 - Optional, but recommended: Git >= 2.7
65 - No database required, no mail required
66
67 Installation steps:
68 - Clone the [repository](https://gitlab.com/mojo42/Jirafeau/) or download the latest [release](https://gitlab.com/mojo42/Jirafeau/tags) from GitLab onto your webserver
69 - Set owner & group according to your webserver
70 - A) Setup with the installation wizard (web):
71 - Open your browser and go to your installed location, eg. ```https://example.com/jirafeau/```
72 - The script will redirect to you to a minimal installation wizard to set up all required options
73 - All optional parameters may be set in ```lib/config.local.php```, take a look at ```lib/config.original.php``` to see all default values
74 - B) Setup without the installation wizard (cli):
75 - Just copy ```config.original.php``` to ```config.local.php``` and customize it
76
77 ## Upgrade
78
79 ### General procedure for all versions
80
81 1. Backup your Jirafeau installation!
82 2. Block access to Jirafeau
83 3. Checkout the new version with Git using the [tagged release](https://gitlab.com/mojo42/Jirafeau/tags)
84 * If you have installed Jirafeau just by uploading files on your server, you can download the desired version, overwrite/remove all files and chown/chmod files if needed. Keep a backup of your local configuration file tough.
85 4. With you browser, go to your Jirafeau root page
86 5. Follow the installation wizard, it should propose you the same data folder or even update automatically
87 7. Check your ```/lib/config.local.php``` and compare it with the ```/lib/config.original.php``` to see if new configuration items are available
88
89 ### From version 1.0 to 1.1
90
91 1. The download URL changed
92 * Add a rewrite rule in your web server configuration to rename ```file.php``` to ```f.php``` to make older, still existing links work again
93 1. The default theme changed
94 * Optionally change the theme in ```lib/config.local.php``` to »courgette«
95
96 ### From version 1.2.0 to 2.0.0
97
98 1. The "Terms of Service" text file changed
99 * To reuse previous changes to the ToS, move the old ```/tos_text.php``` file to ```/lib/tos.local.txt``` and remove all HTML und PHP Tags, leaving a regular text file
100
101 ### from version 2.0.0 to 3.4.1
102
103 There is nothing special to do to update from/to the following versions:
104 - 2.0.0 -> 3.0.0
105 - 3.0.0 -> 3.1.0
106 - 3.1.0 -> 3.2.0
107 - 3.2.0 -> 3.2.1
108 - 3.2.1 -> 3.3.0
109 - 3.3.0 -> 3.4.0
110 - 3.4.0 -> 3.4.1
111
112 ### From 3.4.1 to 4.0.0
113
114 You may have to change your administrator password in your config file as admin password are only stored using sha256 (SHA2).
115 To do so, edit `lib/config.local.php` and update `admin_password` option using `echo -n MyNewPassw0rd | sha256sum` command.
116
117 Subfolder division changed in Jirafeau storage. You can either start from a fresh `var-` folder or you need to migrate your data.
118
119 In order to migrate your existing data:
120 1. Be sure to have a working backup of your Jirafeau instance and/or the rest of your hosting before any operation
121 2. Go to `var-` folder
122 3. Be sure you have read and write permissions on files and folders with your current user
123 4. Run the following commands:
124 ```bash
125 # Migrate files folder
126 find files -type f ! -name "*_count" | while read f; do bn="$(basename "$f")"; dst="files/${bn:0:8}/${bn:8:8}/${bn:16:8}/${bn:24:8}/"; mkdir -p "$dst"; mv "$f" "$dst" ; mv "${f}_count" "$dst"; done; find files -maxdepth 1 -type d -iname "?" -exec rm -rf {} \;
127 # Migrate links folder
128 find links -type f | while read link; do bn="$(basename "$link")"; mkdir "links/$bn"; mv "$link" "links/$bn/"; done; find links -maxdepth 1 -type d -iname "?" -exec rm -rf {} \;
129 ```
130
131 ### Troubleshooting
132
133 If you have some troubles, consider the following cases
134
135 - Check your ```/lib/config.local.php``` file and compare it with ```/lib/config.original.php```, the configuration syntax or a parameter may have changed
136 - Check owner & permissions of your files
137
138 ## Security
139
140 ```var``` directory contain all files and links. It is randomly named to limit access but you may add better protection to prevent un-authorized access to it.
141 You have several options:
142 - Configure a ```.htaccess```
143 - Move var folder to a place on your server which can't be directly accessed
144 - Disable automatic listing on your web server config or place a index.html in var's sub-directory (this is a limited solution)
145
146 If you are using Apache, you can add the following line to your configuration to prevent people to access to your ```var``` folder:
147
148 ```RedirectMatch 301 ^/var-.* http://my.service.jirafeau ```
149
150 If you are using nginx, you can add the following to your $vhost.conf:
151
152 ```nginx
153 location ~ /var-.* {
154 deny all;
155 return 404;
156 }
157 ```
158
159 If you are using lighttpd, you can deny access to ```var``` folder in your configuration:
160
161 ```
162 $HTTP["url"] =~ "^/var-*" {
163 url.access-deny = ("")
164 }
165 ```
166
167 You should also remove un-necessessary write access once the installation is done (ex: configuration file).
168 An other obvious basic security is to let access users to the site by HTTPS (make sure `web_root` in you `config.local.php` is set with https).
169
170 ## Server side encryption
171
172 Data encryption can be activated in options. This feature makes the server encrypt data and send the decryt key to the user (inside download URL).
173 The decrypt key is not stored on the server so if you loose an url, you won't be able to retrieve file content.
174 Encryption is configured to use AES256 in OFB mode.
175 In case of security troubles on the server, attacker won't be able to access files.
176
177 By activating this feature, you have to be aware of few things:
178 - Data encryption has a cost (cpu) and it takes more time for downloads to complete once file sent.
179 - During the download, the server will decrypt on the fly (and use resource).
180 - This feature needs to have the mcrypt php module.
181 - File de-duplication will stop to work (as we can't compare two encrypted files).
182 - Be sure your server do not log client's requests.
183 - Don't forget to enable https.
184
185 In a next step, encryption will be made by the client (in javascript), see issue #10.

210 ## FAQ
211
212 ### Can I add a new language in Jirafeau?
213
214 Of course ! Translations are easy to make and no technical knowledge is required.
215
216 Simply go to [Jirafeau's Weblate](https://hosted.weblate.org/engage/jirafeau/).
217
218 If you want to add a new language in the list, feel free to contact us or leave a comment in ticket #9.
219
220 Thanks to all contributors ! :)
221
222 ### How do I upgrade my Jirafeau?
223
224 See upgrade instructions above.
225
226 ### How can I limit upload access?
227
228 There are two ways to limit upload access (but not download):
229 - you can set one or more passwords in order to access the upload interface, or/and
230 - you can configure a list of authorized IP ([CIDR notation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classless_Inter-Domain_Routing#CIDR_notation)) which are allowed to access to the upload page
231
232 Check documentation of ```upload_password``` and ```upload_ip``` parameters in [lib/config.original.php](https://gitlab.com/mojo42/Jirafeau/blob/master/lib/config.original.php).
233
234 ### How can I automatize the cleaning of old (expired) files?
235
236 You can call the admin.php script from the command line (CLI) with the ```clean_expired``` or ```clean_async``` commands: ```sudo -u www-data php admin.php clean_expired```.
237
238 Then the command can be placed in a cron file to automatize the process. For example:
239 ```
240 # m h dom mon dow user command
241 12 3 * * * www-data php /path/to/jirafeau/admin.php clean_expired
242 16 3 * * * www-data php /path/to/jirafeau/admin.php clean_async
243 ```
244
245 ### I have some troubles with IE
246
247 If you have some strange behavior with IE, you may configure [compatibility mode](http://feedback.dominknow.com/knowledgebase/articles/159097-internet-explorer-ie8-ie9-ie10-and-ie11-compat).
248
249 Anyway I would recommend you to use another web browser. :)
250
251 ### How can I change the theme?
252
253 You may change the default theme to any of the existing ones or a custom.
254
255 Open your ```lib/config.local.php``` and change setting in the »`style`« key to the name of any folder in the ```/media``` directory.
256
257 Hint: To create a custom theme just copy the »courgette« folder and name your theme »custom« (this way it will be ignored by git and not overwritten during updates). You are invited to enhance the existing themes and send pull requests however.
258
259 ### I found a bug, what should I do?
260
261 Feel free to open a bug in the [GitLab's issues](https://gitlab.com/mojo42/Jirafeau/issues).
262
263 ### How to set maximum file size?
264
265 If your browser supports HTML5 file API, you can send files as big as you want.
266
267 For browsers who does not support HTML5 file API, the limitation come from PHP configuration.
268 You have to set [post_max_size](https://php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#ini.post-max-size) and [upload_max_filesize](https://php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#ini.upload-max-filesize) in your php configuration. Note that Nginx setups may requiere to configure `client_max_body_size`.
269
270 If you don't want to allow unlimited upload size, you can still setup a maximal file size in Jirafeau's setting (see ```maximal_upload_size``` in your configuration)
271
272 ### How can I edit an option?
273
274 Documentation of all default options are located in [lib/config.original.php](https://gitlab.com/mojo42/Jirafeau/blob/master/lib/config.original.php).
275 If you want to change an option, just edit your ```lib/config.local.php```.
276
277 ### How can I change the Terms of Service?
278
279 The license text on the "Terms of Service" page, which is shipped with the default installation, is based on the »[Open Source Initiative Terms of Service](https://opensource.org/ToS)«.
280
281 To change this text simply copy the file [/lib/tos.original.txt](https://gitlab.com/mojo42/Jirafeau/blob/master/lib/tos.original.txt), rename it to ```/lib/tos.local.txt``` and adapt it to your own needs.
282
283 If you update the installation, then only the ```tos.original.txt``` file may change eventually, not your ```tos.local.txt``` file.
284
285 ### How can I access the admin interface?
286
287 Just go to ```/admin.php```.
288
289 ### How can I use the scripting interface (API)?
290
291 Simply go to ```/script.php``` with your web browser.
292
293 ### My downloads are incomplete or my uploads fails
294
295 Be sure your PHP installation is not using safe mode, it may cause timeouts.
296
297 If you're using nginx, you might need to increase `client_max_body_size` or remove the restriction altogether. In your nginx.conf:
298
299 ```nginx
300 http {
301 # disable max upload size
302 client_max_body_size 0;
303 # add timeouts for very large uploads
304 client_header_timeout 30m;
305 client_body_timeout 30m;
306 }
307 ```
308
309 ### How can I monitor the use of my Jirafeau instance?
310
311 You may use Munin and simple scripts to collect the number of files in the Jirafeau instance as well as the disk space occupied by all the files. You can consult this [web page](https://blog.bandinelli.net/index.php?post/2016/05/15/Scripts-Munin-pour-Jirafeau).
312
313 ### Why forking?
314
315 The original project seems not to be continued anymore and I prefer to add more features and increase security from a stable version.
316
317 ### What can we expect in the future?
318
319 Check [issues](https://gitlab.com/mojo42/Jirafeau/issues) to check open bugs and incoming new stuff. :)
320
321 ### What about this file deduplication thing?
322
323 Jirafeau uses a very simple file level deduplication for storage optimization.
324
325 This mean that if some people upload several times the same file, this will only store one time the file and increment a counter.
326
327 If someone use his/her delete link or an admin cleans expired links, this will decrement the counter corresponding to the file.
328
329 When the counter falls to zero, the file is destroyed.
330
331 ### What is the difference between "delete link" and "delete file and links" in admin interface?
332
333 As explained in the previous question, files with the same md5 hash are not duplicated and a reference counter stores the number of links pointing to a single file.
334 So:
335 - The button "delete link" will delete the reference to the file but might not destroy the file.
336 - The button "delete file and links" will delete all references pointing to the file and will destroy the file.
337
338 ### How to contact someone from Jirafeau?
339
340 Feel free to create an issue if you found a bug.
341
