# contented
[![](doc/image1.thumb.png)](doc/image1.png)
A file / image / paste upload server with a focus on embedding.
You can use contented as a standalone upload server, or you can use the SDK to embed its upload widget into another website.
The name is a pun on "content" and the -d suffix for server daemons.
## Features
- Use local disk or S3-backed storage
- Drag and drop upload
- Multiple files upload
- Pastebin upload
- Custom drawing upload ([via drawingboard.js](https://github.com/Leimi/drawingboard.js))
- Ctrl-V upload
- Galleries and nested galleries
- SDK-oriented design for embedding, including CORS support
- Mobile friendly HTML interface
- Preserves uploaded filename and content-type metadata
- Hash verification (SHA512/256)
- Detect duplicate upload content and reuse storage
- Options to limit the upload filesize, upload bandwidth, and maximum source filesize for thumbnailing
- Short URLs (using [Hashids](http://hashids.org) algorithm)
- Image thumbnailing
- Optional multi-tenant binary (`contented-multi`)
## Usage (Server)
```
Usage of contented:
-concurrentthumbs int
Simultaneous thumbnail generation (default 16)
-data string
Directory for stored content (default ".")
-db string
Path for metadata database (default "contented.db")
-diskFilesWorldReadable
Save files as 0644 instead of 0600
-enableHomepage
Enable homepage (disable for embedded use only) (default true)
-enableUpload
Enable uploads (disable for read-only mode) (default true)
-listen string
IP/Port to bind server (default "127.0.0.1:80")
-max int
Maximum size of uploaded files in MiB (set zero for unlimited) (default 8)
-speed int
Maximum upload speed in bytes/sec (set zero for unlimited)
-title string
Title used in web interface (default "contented")
-trustXForwardedFor
Trust X-Forwarded-For reverse proxy headers
```
If you are hosting behind a reverse proxy, remember to set its post body size parameter appropriately (e.g. `client_max_body_size` for nginx).
## Usage (HTTP)
The server responds on the following URLs:
URL |Method |Description
---------------------|-------|---
`/get/{ID}` |`GET` |Download item content
`/p/{ID}` |`GET` |Preview item content (HTML)
`/p/{ID}-{ID}-...` |`GET` |Preview multiple item content (HTML)
`/info/{ID}` |`GET` |Get item content metadata (JSON)
`/thumb/{Type}/{ID}` |`GET` |Get item thumbnail image (JPEG). "Type" should match `[sbtmlh]`.
`/about` |`GET` |Get server metadata (JSON)
## Usage (Embedding for web)
Your webpage should load the SDK from the contented server, then call the `contented.init` function to display the upload widget over the top of an existing DOM element:
```html
<script type="text/javascript" src="SERVER_ADDR/sdk.js"></script>
contented.init("#target");
```
You can optionally supply additional ordered parameters to `contented.init`:
1. A callback, that will be passed an array of file IDs of any uploaded items
2. A callback, that will be called if the SDK widget is closed
