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.

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"
}

The config.json file contains the following settings:

Address - The address on which to serve Port - The port MaxDirDepth - The maximum depth the user can go into directories. A value of 30 means the user can cd into max 30 dirs. AbsoluteServePath - The path from where to serve the files.
