8 Welcome to the official Jirafeau project, an [Open-Source software](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-source_software).
9
10 Jirafeau is a "one-click-filesharing": Select your file, upload, share a link. That's it.
11
12 See [jirafeau.net](https://jirafeau.net/) for a demo.

30 - File level [Deduplication](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_deduplication) for storage optimization (does store duplicate files only once, but generate multiple links)
31 - Optional data encryption
32 - Small administration interface
33 - CLI script to remove expired files automatically with a cronjob
34 - Basic, adaptable »Terms Of Service« page
35 - Basic API

38
39 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.
40
41 As it's original project, Jirafeau is made in the [KISS](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_principle) way (Keep It Simple, Stupid).
42
43 Jirafeau project won't evolve to a file manager and will focus to keep a very few dependencies.

57 ## Installation
58
59 This shows how to install Jirafeau by your own, it's quite simple but you can
60 also use a [docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/mojo42/jirafeau/) or build
61 it yourself. Check [docker folder](docker/README.md) for more informations.
62
63 System requirements:
64 - PHP >= 5.6
65 - Optional, but recommended: Git >= 2.7
66 - No database required, no mail required
67
68 Installation steps:
69 - Clone the [repository](https://gitlab.com/mojo42/Jirafeau/) or download the latest [release](https://gitlab.com/mojo42/Jirafeau/tags) from GitLab onto your webserver
70 - Set owner & group according to your webserver
71 - A) Setup with the installation wizard (web):
72 - Open your browser and go to your installed location, eg. ```https://example.com/jirafeau/```
73 - The script will redirect to you to a minimal installation wizard to set up all required options
74 - All optional parameters may be set in ```lib/config.local.php```, take a look at ```lib/config.original.php``` to see all default values
75 - B) Setup without the installation wizard (cli):
76 - Just copy ```lib/config.original.php``` to ```lib/config.local.php``` and customize it
77
78 💡 Hint: How to
79 [install & configure Jirafeau](https://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-setup-a-file-sharing-website-with-jirafeau-on-debian-10/)
80 on Debian 10 from scratch, with Nginx and PHP-FPM.
81
82 ### Troubleshooting
83
84 If you have some troubles, consider the following cases
85
86 - Check your ```/lib/config.local.php``` file and compare it with ```/lib/config.original.php```, the configuration syntax or a parameter may have changed
87 - Check owner & permissions of your files
88 - set `debug` option to `true` to check any warning or error
89
90 ## Security
91
92 ```var``` directory contains all files and links. It is randomly named to limit access but you may add better protection to prevent un-authorized access to it.
93 You have several options:
94 - Configure a ```.htaccess```
95 - Move var folder to a place on your server which can't be directly accessed
96 - Disable automatic listing on your web server config or place a index.html in var's sub-directory (this is a limited solution)
97
98 If you are using Apache, you can add the following line to your configuration to prevent people to access to your ```var``` folder:
99
100 ```RedirectMatch 301 ^/var-.* http://my.service.jirafeau ```
101
102 If you are using nginx, you can add the following to your $vhost.conf:
103
104 ```nginx
105 location ~ /var-.* {
106 deny all;
107 return 404;
108 }
109 ```
110
111 If you are using lighttpd, you can deny access to ```var``` folder in your configuration:
112
113 ```
114 $HTTP["url"] =~ "^/var-*" {
115 url.access-deny = ("")
116 }
117 ```
118
119 You should also remove un-necessessary write access once the installation is done (ex: configuration file).
120 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).
121
122 ## Server side encryption
123
124 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).
125 The decrypt key is not stored on the server so if you loose an url, you won't be able to retrieve file content.
126 Encryption is configured to use [XChaCha20-Poly1305](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ChaCha20-Poly1305).
127 In case of security troubles on the server, attacker won't be able to access files.
128
129 By activating this feature, you have to be aware of few things:
130 - Data encryption has a cost (cpu) and it takes more time for downloads to complete once file sent.
131 - During the download, the server will decrypt on the fly (and use resource).
132 - This feature needs to have the Sodium php module.
133 - File de-duplication will stop to work (as we can't compare two encrypted files).
134 - Be sure your server do not log client's requests.
135 - Don't forget to enable https.
136
137 In a next step, encryption will be made by the client (in javascript), see issue #10.

162 ## FAQ
163
164 ### Can I add a new language in Jirafeau?
165
166 Of course ! Translations are easy to make and no technical knowledge is required.
167
168 Simply go to [Jirafeau's Weblate](https://hosted.weblate.org/engage/jirafeau/).
169
170 If you want to add a new language in the list, feel free to contact us or leave a comment in ticket #9.
171
172 Thanks to all contributors ! :)
173
174 ### How do I upgrade my Jirafeau?
175
176 See change log and upgrade procedure in [CHANGELOG.md](https://gitlab.com/mojo42/Jirafeau/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md).
177
178 ### How can I limit upload access?
179
180 There are two ways to limit upload access (but not download):
181 - you can set one or more passwords in order to access the upload interface, or/and
182 - 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
183
184 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).
185
186 ### How can I automatize the cleaning of old (expired) files?
187
188 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```.
189
190 Then the command can be placed in a cron file to automatize the process. For example:
191 ```
192 # m h dom mon dow user command
193 12 3 * * * www-data php /path/to/jirafeau/admin.php clean_expired
194 16 3 * * * www-data php /path/to/jirafeau/admin.php clean_async
195 ```
196
197 ### I have some troubles with IE
198
199 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).
200
201 Anyway I would recommend you to use another web browser. :)
202
203 ### How can I change the theme?
204
205 You may change the default theme to any of the existing ones or a custom.
206
207 Open your ```lib/config.local.php``` and change setting in the »`style`« key to the name of any folder in the ```/media``` directory.
208
209 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.
210
211 ### I found a bug, what should I do?
212
213 Feel free to open a bug in the [GitLab's issues](https://gitlab.com/mojo42/Jirafeau/issues).
214 If you can, please copy-paste informations related to bug opening provided in admin interface.
215 Admin interface can be reached by accessing `/admin.php`.
216
217 ### How to set maximum file size?
218
219 If your browser supports HTML5 file API, you can send files as big as you want.
220
221 For browsers who does not support HTML5 file API, the limitation come from PHP configuration.
222 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`.
223
224 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)
225
226 ### How can I edit an option?
227
228 Documentation of all default options are located in [lib/config.original.php](https://gitlab.com/mojo42/Jirafeau/blob/master/lib/config.original.php).
229 If you want to change an option, just edit your ```lib/config.local.php```.
230
231 ### How can I change the Terms of Service?
232
233 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)«.
234
235 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.
236
237 If you update the installation, then only the ```tos.original.txt``` file may change eventually, not your ```tos.local.txt``` file.
238
239 ### How can I access the admin interface?
240
241 Just go to ```/admin.php```.
242
243 ### How can I use the scripting interface (API)?
244
245 Simply go to ```/script.php``` with your web browser.
246
247 ### My downloads are incomplete or my uploads fails
248
249 Be sure your PHP installation is not using safe mode, it may cause timeouts.
250
251 If you're using nginx, you might need to increase `client_max_body_size` or remove the restriction altogether. In your nginx.conf:
252
253 ```nginx
254 http {
255 # disable max upload size
256 client_max_body_size 0;
257 # add timeouts for very large uploads
258 client_header_timeout 30m;
259 client_body_timeout 30m;
260 }
261 ```
262
263 ### How can I monitor the use of my Jirafeau instance?
264
265 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).
266
267 ### Why forking?
268
269 The original project seems not to be continued anymore and I prefer to add more features and increase security from a stable version.
270
271 ### What can we expect in the future?
272
273 Check [issues](https://gitlab.com/mojo42/Jirafeau/issues) to check open bugs and incoming new stuff. :)
274
275 ### What about this file deduplication thing?
276
277 Jirafeau can use a very simple file level deduplication for storage optimization.
278
279 This mean that if some people upload several times the same file, this will only store one time the file and increment a counter.
280
281 If someone use his/her delete link or an admin cleans expired links, this will decrement the counter corresponding to the file.
282
283 When the counter falls to zero, the file is destroyed.
284
285 In order to know if a newly uploaded file already exist, Jirafeau will hash the file using md5 by default but other methods are available (see `file_hash` documentation in `lib/config.original.php`).
286
287 This feature is disabled by default and can be enabled through the `file_hash` option.
288
289 ### What is the difference between "delete link" and "delete file and links" in admin interface?
290
291 When file deduplication feature is enabled, files with the same hash are not duplicated and a reference counter stores the number of links pointing to a single file.
292 So:
293 - The button "delete link" will delete the reference to the file but might not destroy the file.
294 - The button "delete file and links" will delete all references pointing to the file and will destroy the file.
295
296 ### How to contact someone from Jirafeau?
297
298 Feel free to create an issue if you found a bug.
299
300 Also, you can come have a chat on [libera.chat](https://web.libera.chat/) in `#jirafeau` channel.
301
302 ### Can I buy you a coffee?
303
304 You can [drop few bucks](https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/jeromejutteau) to help the [demo web site](https://jirafeau.net) to stay alive.
