Looks neat!!
I finally gave it a shot and I like it so far. Installing via docker was pretty fast. I really love the speed of the app, it is super snappy. What I really miss is encryption, I saw it on the road map, so fingers crossed it will be implemented soon.
Hey all !
I got time to work on this again, and made improvements. Main ones: 2fa, audio player + audio book support
CHANGES:
Security: Guests could view admin files. I added robust checks on several endpoints.
LOTS Of Bug fixes and UI improvements
Html viewer
Audio player
Audiobook features: save position automatically, multiple rewind buttons
Two Factor Authentication powered by TOTP protocol. Ex: Google Authenticator
Support running behind reverse proxies by adding configurable/optional trusted proxies
Support for no auth mode
Request: Can someone please help me test some features I recently added
Running Behind Reverse proxy
To run behind a Http proxy, configure .env file to allow trusted headers and specify the ips to trust. This typically refers to the headers sent by your proxy server and the ip on which it is running.
TRUSTED_PROXIES=* - to trust all ips. add to .env file in root of the directory. OR TRUSTED_PROXIES=some.ip,ano.ther.ip
Optionally adjust headers to trust via TRUSTED_HEADERS in .env
2fa - This can be enabled from settings.
Finally need suggestions on where to go next :
Finally feel free to star. Could help me get employed again..
I use Seafile personally and the way I use the api is in various cli environments. I have scripts that upload logfiles to a Seafile drive, I can synchronize configs between servers using Seafile via the api etc etc. I good api is quite handy when you do a lot of stuff from cli.
Also, if you have a good api it would not be to difficult for someone to develop agents for mobile or desktops if they feel like it.
The history bug is still there.
After logging out, hit back and you can see all the files.
@rcy026 But couldn't one write simple bash scripts using rsync/scp to do the same ? But its still good to know there is a use case for it.
@itachikonoha damn ! I totally forgot about the history thing... checking out now.
@itachikonoha fixed ! thanks for again noticing
Still not fixed though. The cache persists so browser won't send a request. You need to set appropriate headers.
I had a chat with @itachikonoha . History issue is fixed indeed !
I would like to have an encrypted solution. Yes, you can encrypt locally and upload but it means I would need to download it, decrypt...what if I would like to check the content using my phone? Headache...on the other hand, encryption is difficult to implement, it breaks certain things. This is why, for example, Immich said they will not do encryption.
Well, I guess we will have to stick with Seafile or just encrypt locally and upload.
Hmmm I run it behind reverse proxy since I first installed it (a while ago). All good.
@JohnFilch123 Would a encrypted folder be useful ? Basically instead of encrypting everything, there can be a folder that is encrypted. That is also not hard to implement. But tradeoffs -
Now I am pretty certain at this point, encrypting would be pointless. Agree ?
But it may be possible to handle some of them by moving some things client side or on the fly decryption.. hmm
Yes, I think it will be very useful because it is a trade-off between your efforts and the need of users.

Hmm, let me disagree. Encryption is mostly about data privacy and security and not about comfort. In fact, the more comfortable it is the less private it is. We can just use Google Drive, easy, free, quick, always works (kinda
) etc I am pretty happy to accept those trade-offs, plus it is just for one folder. I can still keep and share my nudes unencrypted and my grandma's secret recipes in the encrypted folder 
I researched and it seems traefik ( which you used ) maybe preserves the headers or something...
well if there is a use case, I would definitely consider this strongly . thanks !
I would disagree.
Encryption is itself a tradeoff in day to day usage. You can bring a method which is state of the art but if it is inconvenient, then most people will just avoid it regardless how good it is in it's job.
Even after data leaks, people still use that platform if it is convenient enough. You are forgetting an important parameter which isn't related anywhere to encryption but will impact a major share in the end.
Human behavior and their tendency to bring comfort and impact of routine.
This sounds good.
Keep an encrypted folder for sensitive data and for everything else, normal space
