# simplFT
This project was made for the purpose of me to learn and understand Go better and also for the Computer Networking class
that I took in Fall 2017 at UPT.

The scope of this project is to implement a simple server that handles multiple clients and allows the clients to
execute commands on it.

## Commands

//todo

## Configuration

The server can be configured via command line flags with the -ConfigPath option,
specifying a path to the configuration file.
If no configuration file is provided the server will run with the default settings.

Sample Configuration File:
```
{
    "address": "localhost",
    "port": "8080",
    "maxDirDepth": 30,
    "absoluteServePath": "/Users/denis/Dropbox/Pictures/CuteAvatars",
    "pic": {
        "x": 0,
        "y": 0
    }
}
```

The **config.json** file contains the following settings:

1. address           - The address on which to serve

2. port              - The port

3. maxDirDepth       - The maximum depth the user can go into directories. A value of 30 means the user can cd into max 30 dirs.

4. absoluteServePath - The path from where to serve the files.

5. pic               - The X and Y max size for the pic command. A value of 0 means original size

If one of the settings are changed, the server will reload the configuration.
Except for the absoluteServePath.
