Project description
🚀 Tempspace
Tempspace is a self-hostable, terminal-themed file sharing service. It allows you to quickly upload files and share them via a link, with features like password protection, one-time downloads, and automatic expiration.
✨ Core Features
- Seamless Uploading: Drag-and-drop web interface, cURL, or a dedicated CLI tool.
- Chunked Uploads: Robust support for large files (default 4GB, configurable) via chunking.
- Security Focused:
- Password Protection: Secure individual files with a password.
- One-Time Downloads: Links can be configured to expire after the first download.
- Rate Limiting: Built-in protection against abuse.
- Efficient Storage: Files with identical content are de-duplicated to save space.
- Flexible Expiration: Set custom expiration times from hours to days.
- Modern UI:
- Terminal-Inspired Design: A clean, developer-focused interface.
- QR Code Generation: Instantly generate QR codes for mobile sharing.
- Local Upload History: Your browser remembers your recent uploads.
- Automatic Cleanup: The server periodically cleans up expired files automatically.
🚀 Getting Started
There are three primary ways to use Tempspace.
1. Web Interface (The Easy Way)
- Open the service URL (e.g.,
https://tempspace.fly.dev/or your self-hosted instance) in your browser. - Drag and drop your file(s) or click to browse.
- Configure options like expiration time, password, or one-time download.
- Click "Upload" and share the generated link.
2. cURL (From the Terminal)
Use cURL to upload files directly from your command line.
# Basic upload (expires in 24 hours)
curl -F "file=@/path/to/your/file.txt" https://tempspace.fly.dev/upload
# Set a custom expiration time (e.g., 7 days) and password
curl -F "file=@/path/to/secret.txt" \
-F "hours=168" \
-F "password=secret123" \
https://tempspace.fly.dev/upload
# Create a one-time download link
curl -F "file=@/path/to/onetime.zip" \
-F "one_time=true" \
https://tempspace.fly.dev/upload
3. Official CLI Tool
For the best terminal experience, install the official CLI tool from PyPI.
Installation
pip install tempspace-cli

🔧 Self-Hosting
You can easily run your own instance of Tempspace using Docker or by running the source code directly.
Method 1: Using Docker (Recommended)
-
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/Bartixxx32/tempspace.git cd tempspace
-
Build the Docker image:
docker build -t tempspace-app .
-
Run the container: Create a
.envfile to configure your admin password.cp .env.example .env nano .env # Set your ADMIN_PASS
Then, run the container, mounting the environment file and a volume for persistent storage.
docker run -d \ -p 8000:8000 \ --name tempspace \ --env-file .env \ -v $(pwd)/uploads:/app/uploads \ tempspace-app
Your Tempspace instance will be available at
http://localhost:8000.
Method 2: Running from Source
-
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/Bartixxx32/tempspace.git cd tempspace
-
Install dependencies: It's recommended to use a virtual environment.
python -m venv venv source venv/bin/activate # On Windows, use `venv\Scripts\activate` pip install -r requirements.txt
-
Configure: Copy the example environment file and set your admin password.
cp .env.example .env nano .env
-
Run the server:
python -m uvicorn main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
