BREAKING CHANGE: Storage model completely rewritten. All file/folder metadata now lives in PostgreSQL (storage schema). File content stored as content-addressable blobs via DedupService. Filesystem directories are no longer used for user storage. New components: - storage.folders / storage.files / storage.trash_items (PG schema) - FolderDbRepository: virtual folders backed by PG - FileBlobReadRepository: file reads via PG metadata + dedup blobs - FileBlobWriteRepository: file writes via PG metadata + dedup blobs - TrashDbRepository: soft-delete trash using is_trashed flags Removed legacy FS components (~5500 lines deleted): - FolderFsRepository, FileFsReadRepository, FileFsWriteRepository - CompositeFileRepository, ParallelFileProcessor - IdMappingService, IdMappingOptimizer, FileMetadataCache - BufferPool, FileSystemUtils, RepositoryErrors - TrashFsRepository, FolderFsRepositoryTrash DI rewired: build_app_state() now requires PgPool (no FS fallback). FileUploadService.new_with_read() and FileRetrievalService.new_with_cache() constructors added for blob model (no write-behind needed). Closes #113
A fast, simple alternative to NextCloud
NextCloud was too slow on my home server. So I built OxiCloud: a file storage system written in Rust that runs on minimal hardware and stays out of your way.
Why OxiCloud?
| Feature | What you get |
|---|---|
| Low resources | Runs on 512MB RAM. No PHP, no bloat. |
| Fast | Rust with LTO optimization. Sub-second responses. |
| Clean UI | Works on desktop and mobile. No clutter. |
| Easy setup | One binary, one database, done. |
| Multi-language | English, Spanish and Persian out of the box. |
Quick Start
You need Rust 1.70+, Cargo, and PostgreSQL 13+.
git clone https://github.com/DioCrafts/oxicloud.git
cd oxicloud
# Set up your database connection
echo "DATABASE_URL=postgres://username:password@localhost/oxicloud" > .env
# Build and run
cargo build --release
cargo run --bin migrate --features migrations
cargo run --release
Open http://localhost:8085 in your browser.
Docker (alternative)
docker compose up -d
That's it. The app runs on port 8086.
Architecture
OxiCloud uses Clean Architecture with four layers:
┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Interfaces │ API routes, handlers │
├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Application │ Use cases, services │
├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Domain │ Business logic │
├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Infrastructure│ Database, filesystem │
└─────────────────────────────────────────┘
Each layer only talks to the one below it. You can swap out the database or add new API endpoints without touching business logic.
Development
cargo build # Build
cargo run # Run locally
cargo test # Run tests
cargo clippy # Lint
cargo fmt # Format
# For debugging
RUST_LOG=debug cargo run
