Pingvin Share
--- _Read this in another language: [Spanish](/docs/README.es.md), [English](/README.md), [Simplified Chinese](/docs/README.zh-cn.md), [日本語](/docs/README.ja-jp.md)_ --- Pingvin Share is self-hosted file sharing platform and an alternative for WeTransfer. ## ✨ Features - Share files using a link - Unlimited file size (restricted only by disk space) - Set an expiration date for shares - Secure shares with visitor limits and passwords - Email recipients - Integration with ClamAV for security scans ## 🐧 Get to know Pingvin Share - [Demo](https://pingvin-share.dev.eliasschneider.com) - [Review by DB Tech](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWwNeZCOPJA) ## ⌨️ Setup > Note: Pingvin Share is in its early stages and may contain bugs. ### Installation with Docker (recommended) 1. Download the `docker-compose.yml` file 2. Run `docker-compose up -d` The website is now listening on `http://localhost:3000`, have fun with Pingvin Share 🐧! ### Stand-alone Installation Required tools: - [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/) >= 16 - [Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads) - [pm2](https://pm2.keymetrics.io/) for running Pingvin Share in the background ```bash git clone https://github.com/stonith404/pingvin-share cd pingvin-share # Checkout the latest version git fetch --tags && git checkout $(git describe --tags `git rev-list --tags --max-count=1`) # Start the backend cd backend npm install npm run build pm2 start --name="pingvin-share-backend" npm -- run prod # Start the frontend cd ../frontend npm install npm run build pm2 start --name="pingvin-share-frontend" npm -- run start ``` **Uploading Large Files**: By default, Pingvin Share uses a built-in reverse proxy to reduce the installation steps. However, this reverse proxy is not optimized for uploading large files. If you wish to upload larger files, you can either use the Docker installation or set up your own reverse proxy. An example configuration for Nginx can be found in `/nginx/nginx.conf`. The website is now listening on `http://localhost:3000`, have fun with Pingvin Share 🐧! ### Integrations #### ClamAV (Docker only) ClamAV is used to scan shares for malicious files and remove them if found. 1. Add the ClamAV container to the Docker Compose stack (see `docker-compose.yml`) and start the container. 2. Docker will wait for ClamAV to start before starting Pingvin Share. This may take a minute or two. 3. The Pingvin Share logs should now log "ClamAV is active" Please note that ClamAV needs a lot of [ressources](https://docs.clamav.net/manual/Installing/Docker.html#memory-ram-requirements). #### OAuth 2 Login View the [OAuth 2 guide](/docs/oauth2-guide.md) for more information. ### Additional resources - [Synology NAS installation](https://mariushosting.com/how-to-install-pingvin-share-on-your-synology-nas/) ### Upgrade to a new version As Pingvin Share is in early stage, see the release notes for breaking changes before upgrading. #### Docker ```bash docker compose pull docker compose up -d ``` #### Stand-alone 1. Stop the running app ```bash pm2 stop pingvin-share-backend pingvin-share-frontend ``` 2. Repeat the steps from the [installation guide](#stand-alone-installation) except the `git clone` step. ```bash cd pingvin-share # Checkout the latest version git fetch --tags && git checkout $(git describe --tags `git rev-list --tags --max-count=1`) # Start the backend cd backend npm run build pm2 restart pingvin-share-backend # Start the frontend cd ../frontend npm run build pm2 restart pingvin-share-frontend ``` ### Configuration You can customize Pingvin Share by going to the configuration page in your admin dashboard. #### Environment variables For installation specific configuration, you can use environment variables.
