- `DOMAIN_NAME`: Your domain for HTTPS certificates
- `SMTP_*`: Email server configuration
- `STRIPE_*`: Payment processing credentials
- `STORAGE_PATH`: Local storage directory path
See `.env.example` for a complete list of configuration options.
## Usage
### Web Interface
Access the web application through your browser. The interface provides:
- File browser with drag-and-drop upload
- Folder management and navigation
- Search and filtering capabilities
- User profile and settings
- Administrative controls (for admins)
### API Usage
2025-11-13 12:05:05 +01:00
MyWebdav provides a comprehensive REST API. Example requests:
2025-11-11 17:57:45 +01:00
```bash
# Upload a file
curl -X POST "https://your-domain.com/api/files/upload" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
-F "file=@example.txt"
# List files
curl -X GET "https://your-domain.com/api/files/" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"
# Create a share link
curl -X POST "https://your-domain.com/api/shares/" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"file_id": 123, "expires_at": "2024-12-31T23:59:59Z"}'
```
### WebDAV Access
2025-11-13 12:05:05 +01:00

## Deployment
### Production Deployment
1. Set up a reverse proxy (Nginx included in docker-compose.yml)
2. Configure SSL certificates (automatic with Let's Encrypt)
3. Set up database backups
4. Configure monitoring and logging
5. Scale as needed with load balancers
### Docker Compose Services
- **app**: FastAPI application with Gunicorn
- **db**: PostgreSQL database
- **redis**: Caching and session storage
- **nginx**: Reverse proxy and static file serving
- **certbot**: SSL certificate management
### Environment Variables
Configure all services through the `.env` file. Sensitive data is automatically loaded and validated.
## Security Considerations
- Change default secrets in production
- Enable HTTPS with valid certificates
- Regularly update dependencies
- Monitor access logs
- Implement backup strategies
- Use strong passwords and enable 2FA
## Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
- **Database connection errors**: Verify DATABASE_URL configuration
- **File upload failures**: Check storage permissions and quotas
- **Email not sending**: Confirm SMTP settings
- **WebDAV connection issues**: Ensure proper authentication
### Logs
Application logs are available in the Docker containers:
```bash
docker-compose logs app
```
