Why

Personal requirement. Because of this, only renaming is available, and uploading/downloading. No authentication, as it is based on a small local server, and the major way of accessing it, is ssh.

Usage

Use settings.json and point it to a valid address, and select a required port. Default 8080

For the backend, the jsons have this form.

Requests:

{
    'loc': "<valid location>"
}

Responses (Only for directory traversals):

{
    'loc': "<location>",
    'back': "<location|null>",
    'contents':[
        {
            'name':"<filename>",
            'path':"<location>",
            'isDir': "<true|false>"
        },
        ...
    ]
}
