A HTTP server that serves zip files of directories.

1. Copy config_example.py to config.py and open it in a text editor.

2. Edit the route_dirs variable to point to your directory full of totally legal files

   Let's say you have a directory structure like this:

   home/rzr/files
   ├── Memes
   │   └── pepe
   └── pr0n
   

   And you set route_dirs like this:

   route_dirs = {
       '/arr/': '/home/rzr/files'
   }

   You can download a zip of your top level subdirectories:
   http://127.0.0.1:8420/arr/Memes.zip (works)
   http://127.0.0.1:8420/arr/pr0n.zip (works)

   but non-top level subdirectories are not allowed:
   http://127.0.0.1:8420/arr/Memes/pepe.zip (404)

3. If you want to restrict access to only certain directories/give custom names to the files, point route_dirs to an empty directory and link your directories inside there.

You probably want to put this behind a reverse proxy instead of hosting it bare. A sample nginx proxy.d config has been provided to get you started.

Use a reverse proxy, see the sample nginx config file.

I don't see any advantages to using only Python. Convince me and maybe I'll switch to pure Python.

• A way to prevent certain directories from being zipped (perhaps a .nozip file in the directory)
