# 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.
