Question - Make auto generated share URLs shorter?
Hi all
My instance has very low volumes of traffic/users, but I quite often use it to move files in/out of vms and remote sessions that I cant always copy paste into.
Is there a way to make the auto generated urls shorter for convenience? Even 2 characters would suffice for my needs
hey james,
you may use an bucked id ( ?sid=ab)
I think the code that generate the random id is
function getSid() { // support setting an explicit SID by location search param const match = document.location.search.match(/sid=([^&]+)/); if (match) { return match[1]; } else { return md5(uuid()).toString().substr(0, 12); } }
As you can see it`s a hardcoded length.
Hi @Maytrok - Thanks for sharing! I see you linked pull #283 - does this mean there is now an ENV for this?
I see this was added to the readme! Closing issue :) PSITRANSFER_RANDOM_DOWNLOAD_SID_LENGTH
@Maytrok
Reopening as I only just found the time to test...
Looks like the #283 merge has conflicts - did it ever go ahead? I cant see a reference to sid length in the config.js and adding this env to docker compose does nothing
Bump - any news on this?
@jamess60 the repo owner seems to not care about my PRs and merge other prs that create a merge conflict with mine. i`ve resolve the conflict now, but i don't have small hopes that the pr will be merged. If you really want that feature, you should be able to clone my forked repo and switch to the 'env-to-shorten-download-url' branch. Note: Ive not tested the docker version
Hi @Maytrok
My bad - I honestly thought you were the repo owner given the lack of activity from anyone else! Shame that the project seems to be lacking maintainers as its an awesome bit of software. Thank you for your efforts!
If/When I ever find time, I might be able to help dockerise your fork...
I apologize but I really do not have the time anymore to manage all the requests and do much review stuff. Feel free to fork my work and add your features
