Implemented a rudementary authentication method using Keycloak as the
IdP - still very barebones, but login does function. Next steps will
include a Docker Compose file (most likely) for managing this
integration. The application will work fine without setting up the
integration however, and will just throw a warning message. Setup should
be relatively self explanatory, but some documentation is TBD, along
with some automation when spinning up for the first time. Still not
super happy with the implementation.
Making some improvements to the future maintainability of the project,
namely in the form of tests. Also implemented a new "dist" command to
the Makefile that packs up the binaries, and will eventually be expanded
to do more legwork when prepping for a release.
Updated file providers to use io.Reader over an explicit multipart file,
and removed the handler in favour of a plain filename, since that was
it's primary purpose.
Started work on a new basic frontend, with some magic code from
@tomhodgins (Tom Hodgins) for templating and processing data, which was
the primary purpose for considering a full-fledged JavaScript
framework. Fairly simple right now, with minimal "bling", and seems
"functional enough". Might need to consider options for using less or
no JS down the line if there is demand.
As part of this frontend, actually implemented route logic for fetching
a sorted list of providers (might be worth investigating whether
storing this final result in memory is worth the performance to memory
trade-off).
Also fixed a bug where adding "/" to the end of a provider name without
a file path would result in a 404. This was addressed with some Regex
filtering on the path that should be able to handle that matching.
Expanding this as we go, currently have POC Backblaze B2 support and
basic 'disk' provider as well. Still WIP, but functional for the most
part. Also moving to simplified YAML configuration.
Overall, simplifying things to be extensible down the line. Still work
to be done, but coming along nicely.
