THE NULL POINTER
================
{% set fhost_url = url_for("fhost", _external=True).rstrip("/") %}
HTTP POST files here:
curl -F'file=@yourfile.png' {{ fhost_url }}
You can also POST remote URLs:
curl -F'url=http://example.com/image.jpg' {{ fhost_url }}
If you don't want the resulting URL to be easy to guess:
curl -F'file=@yourfile.png' -Fsecret= {{ fhost_url }}
curl -F'url=http://example.com/image.jpg' -Fsecret= {{ fhost_url }}
Or you can shorten URLs:
curl -F'shorten=http://example.com/some/long/url' {{ fhost_url }}
You can also paste a file blob from your system's clipboard.
It is possible to append your own file name to the URL:
{{ fhost_url }}/aaa.jpg/image.jpeg
File URLs are valid for at least 30 days and up to a year (see below).
Shortened URLs do not expire.
Files can be set to expire sooner by adding an "expires" parameter (in hours)
curl -F'file=@yourfile.png' -Fexpires=24 {{ fhost_url }}
OR by setting "expires" to a timestamp in epoch milliseconds
curl -F'file=@yourfile.png' -Fexpires=1681996320000 {{ fhost_url }}
Expired files won't be removed immediately, but will be removed as part of
the next purge.
Whenever a file that does not already exist or has expired is uploaded,
the HTTP response header includes an X-Token field. You can use this
to perform management operations on the file.
To delete the file immediately:
curl -Ftoken=token_here -Fdelete= {{ fhost_url }}/abc.txt
To change the expiration date (see above):
curl -Ftoken=token_here -Fexpires=3 {{ fhost_url }}/abc.txt
{% set max_size = config["MAX_CONTENT_LENGTH"]|filesizeformat(True) %}
Maximum file size: {{ max_size }}
Not allowed: {{ config["FHOST_MIME_BLACKLIST"]|join(", ") }}
FILE RETENTION PERIOD
---------------------
retention = min_age + (-max_age + min_age) * pow((file_size / max_size - 1), 3)
