Browsers send the full relative path (e.g. 'Screenshots/file.png') as the multipart filename when uploading folders via webkitRelativePath. The File entity rejects names containing '/' or '\', causing all files in a folder upload to fail with 'Invalid file name'. Three fixes: - Backend: strip path components from multipart filename in file_handler, keeping only the basename. Also prevents path-traversal attacks. - Frontend (fileOperations.js): explicitly pass file.name as the third argument to FormData.append() in uploadFolderFiles() to override the browser's relative path. - Frontend (ui.js): detect folder drops in drag-and-drop handlers by checking webkitRelativePath, and route them to uploadFolderFiles() instead of uploadFiles() so subfolders are created first. Closes #121
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
