Droopy mini web server: easy file sharing

Post by Labrona »

Droopy is a mini Web server whose sole purpose is to let others upload files to your computer.

Look for it here : https://github.com/stackp/Droopy

I found Droopy to be the simplest way to share files between two computers at home. It is also the fastest (i experienced downloads of files up to 70mb/s).

It requires Python3 to be installed.

Can you let us know which build is required?

@Trapster

Did you run this application on your Puppy version 4.10 ??

AFAIK there was no Python available on earlier builds :?:

If python did not come with 4.10 i'm sure I installed it.

Code: Select all

# uname -a
Linux linux_server 2.6.25.16 #1 Tue Aug 26 10:45:53 GMT-8 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
# cat /etc/puppyversion 
410
# python --version
Python 2.7.16

# ps | grep droopy
12041 root       5508 S   tmux new -s droopy -d 
20080 root       2468 S   tmux a -t droopy 
20125 root      43816 S   python /usr/local/bin/droopy

@Trapster

Thanks for showing me.

I think I have a Python 2.x SFS file, that might do the job :thumbup:
