Development

TODO

• basic http server
• docker container
• env instead of args when available
• PUT gzip data into /data/xxx
• DELETE request
• max file size
• .host in /data/xxx can be translated as host in GET /
• header to setup .host file instead of in archive
• ignore .gitignore/.host etc at root
• cerbot install in container + path env/arg
• redirect /.well-known/acme-challenge to specific path
• certbot/self-signed create/renew in specific dir
• better logger
• renew command
• https mode w/ multiple hosts
• restart command (on new/deleted host)
• proper doc
• log visits (and store accross sessions)
• deliver visits in /page/visits
