errnoh / tarserver

Webserver that is able to tar and gzip files you send it.

tarserver

Because someone mentioned web servers that would serve gzipped tar files..

Usage:

curl -F file=@file1.go -F file=@file2.txt http://127.0.0.1:8080/tar/gz > tarredstuff.tar.gz

..or just send files as MIME multipart ( RFC 2046 ) with some other software..

..or don't send files at all, just send some random data (though skip /tar/ if you do that)..

Supported functions:

• /tar - tar files that are sent as MIME multipart form.
• /gzip or /gz/ - gzip data
• /zlib - zlib data
• /echo - echo server

Paths can be combined:

• /tar/gz - first tar the files and then gzip them

TODO:

• https support
• proper error handling
• return codes
