# Black Hole Share
A lightweight, ephemeral file sharing service built with Rust and Actix-Web. Upload images or text with a configurable TTL (1-60 minutes) and share via a unique link. Content is automatically purged after expiration.
## Features
- **Ephemeral sharing** uploads auto-delete after the specified duration
- **Image & text support** drag/drop, paste, or file picker for images; paste text directly
- **Zero database** assets stored as JSON files on disk
- **Dark theme UI** clean, responsive interface with zoom overlay
- **Statistics dashboard** real-time stats at `/stats.html` (active assets, uploads, response times)
- **Access logging** request and asset events logged to `data/logs/access.log` with IP, timing, and metadata
## Quick Start
### Local Development
```bash
# Run from repo root (paths resolve to data/html/, data/logs/, data/storage/)
cargo run --release
```
Server starts at `http://0.0.0.0:8080` by default.
> **Note:** All paths are relative to the repo root: `data/html/`, `data/logs/`, `data/storage/`.
### Docker
```bash
docker-compose up --build
```
Exposes port `8080` mapped to container port `80`. Volume mounts `./data:/data`.
## Configuration
| Environment Variable | Default | Description |
| -------------------- | --------- | --------------- |
| `BIND_ADDR` | `0.0.0.0` | Address to bind |
| `BIND_PORT` | `8080` | Port to bind |
## API
### Upload
```http
POST /api/upload
Content-Type: application/json
{
"duration": 5,
"content_type": "text/plain",
"content": "Hello, world!"
}
```
- `duration` TTL in minutes (1-60)
- `content_type` MIME type (`text/plain` or `image/*`)
- `content` raw text or base64-encoded image data
**Response:**
```json
{ "link": "/bhs/550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000" }
```
### Fetch
```http
GET /api/content/{id}
```
Returns the original content with appropriate MIME type, or `404` if expired/missing.
### Statistics
```http
GET /api/stats
```
**Response:**
```json
{
"active_assets": 5,
"total_uploads": 42,
"total_deleted": 37,
"storage_bytes": 1048576,
"image_count": 3,
"text_count": 2,
"total_requests": 150,
"recent_activity": [...]
}
```

## Runtime Layout
The server uses paths relative to the repo root under `data/`:
- `data/html/` frontend assets (index.html, view.html, style.css)
- `data/logs/` access logs
- `data/storage/` uploaded assets (auto-created)
- **Local dev:** Run from repo root with `cargo run --release`
- **Docker:** Volume mounts `./data:/data`, container WORKDIR is `/`
