## Roadmap
2013-03-16 21:23:25 +00:00
The goal for this code base is to come up with a good and simple solution for
resumable file uploads over http.
* Defining good http API
* Implementing a reasonably robust server for it
2013-03-16 21:25:33 +00:00
* Creating an HTML5 client
2013-03-16 21:23:25 +00:00
* Setting up an online demo
* Integrating Amazon S3 for storage
* Creating an iOS client
* Collect feedback
After this, and based on the feedback, we will continue the development, and
start to offer the software as a hosted service. All code will continue to be
released as open source, there will be no bait and switch.

## HTTP API
2013-03-16 23:33:25 +00:00
### `POST /files`
2013-03-16 23:32:37 +00:00
**Request**
```
POST /files HTTP/1.1
Host: tus.example.com
Content-Length: 0
Content-Range: bytes */100
Content-Type: "image/png"
```
**Response:**
```
HTTP/1.1 201 Created
Location: http://tus.example.com/files/123d3ebc995732b2
```
```json
{
"id": "123d3ebc995732b2",
"url": "http://tus.example.com/files/123d3ebc995732b2",
"received": 0,
"size": 0,
"parts": []
}
```
In this case the client would proceed by querying the server:
2013-03-16 23:33:25 +00:00
### `GET /files/123d3ebc995732b2`
2013-03-16 23:32:37 +00:00
**Request:**
```
GET /files/123d3ebc995732b2/d930cc9d304cc667 HTTP/1.1
Host: tus.example.com
Content-Length: 0
Content-Range: bytes */*
```
The server responds by informing the client about the status of the partial
upload:
**Response:**
```
HTTP/1.1 206 Partial Content
Content-Length: 0
Content-Range: 0-49/100
```
