Standard File Server, Go Implementation

Golang implementation of the Standard File protocol.

Running your own server

You can run your own Standard File server, and use it with any SF compatible client (like Standard Notes). This allows you to have 100% control of your data. This server implementation is built with Go and can be deployed in seconds.

You may require to add /api to the url of your server if you plan to use this server with https://standardnotes.org/

Getting started

Requirements

• Go 1.7+
• SQLite3 database

Instructions

1. Initialize project:

go get github.com/tectiv3/standardfile
go install github.com/tectiv3/standardfile

1. Start the server:

standardfile

1. Stop the server:

standardfile -stop

Configuration options

Customize port and database location

-p 8080

and

-db /var/lib/sf.db

default port is 8888 and database file named sf.db will be created in working directory

Migrations

To perform migrations run standardfile --migrate

Perform migration upon updating to v0.2.0

Deploying to a live server

I suggest putting it behind nginx with https enabled location

server {
    server_name sf.example.com;
    listen 80;
    return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}

server {
    server_name sf.example.com;
    listen 443 ssl http2;

    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/sf.example.com/fullchain.pem;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/sf.example.com/privkey.pem;

    include snippets/ssl-params.conf;
	
    location / {
	add_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin '*' always;
	add_header Access-Control-Allow-Credentials true always;
	add_header Access-Control-Allow-Headers 'authorization,content-type' always;
	add_header Access-Control-Allow-Methods 'GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE, OPTIONS' always;
	add_header Access-Control-Expose-Headers 'Access-Token, Client, UID' always;

	if ($request_method = OPTIONS ) {
		return 200;
	}

	proxy_set_header        Host $host;
	proxy_set_header        X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
	proxy_set_header        X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
	proxy_set_header        X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;

	proxy_pass          http://localhost:8888;
	proxy_read_timeout  90;
    }
}
