imgsrv/README

== Overview

Initially, I just wanted a server that I could upload images to, and quickly
serve back. While it's mostly that, it is the client and server side tooling.

The files are stored in mongoDB, using its GridFS.

== Usage

Server side
For a basic start, make sure mongo is running on the localhost, and run:
  ./imgsrv -server
  2013/02/12 13:03:37 0.0.0.0
  2013/02/12 13:03:37 Serving on 0.0.0.0:7777 ...

For something a bit more complicated, like an openshift diy-0.1 cartridge, 
set your .openshift/action_hooks/start to:
  nohup ${OPENSHIFT_REPO_DIR}/bin/server \
    -server \
    -ip ${OPENSHIFT_INTERNAL_IP} \
    -port 8080 \
    -mongo-host ${OPENSHIFT_NOSQL_DB_URL} \
    >> ${OPENSHIFT_LOG_DIR}/server.log 2>&1 &


Client side:
Either pass the -remotehost flag pointing to your server instance

  imgsrv -remotehost http://hurp.til.derp.com:7777 -put ./lolz.gif -keywords 'cats,lols'


or setup your ~/.imgsrv.yaml, with a the value 'remotehost', like so:
  ---
  remotehost: http://hurp.til.derp.com:7777

then you can drop that flag out, for quicker lolzing:

  imgsrv -put ./lolz.gif -keywords 'cats,lols'
  2013/02/12 13:00:28 POSTing: http://hurp.til.derp.com:7777/f/?filename=lolz.gif&keywords=cats,lols
  2013/02/12 13:00:29 New Image!: http://hurp.til.derp.com:7777/f/lolz.gif
