# tusd - Let's fix file uploading
|
||||
# tusd
|
||||
|
||||
It's 2013, and adding reliable file uploading to your app is still too damn
|
||||
hard. tus is an open source project dedicated to create the best file uploading
|
||||
protocol, server and clients.
|
||||
tusd is the official reference implementation of the [tus resumable upload
|
||||
protocol](http://www.tus.io/protocols/resumable-upload.html).
|
||||
|
||||
Sounds interesting? Get notified when it's ready: http://tus.io/
|
||||
This means it is meant for client authors to verify their implementations as
|
||||
well as server authors who may look at it for inspiration.
|
||||
|
||||
## Roadmap
|
||||
In the future tusd may be extended with additional functionality to make it
|
||||
suitable as a standalone production upload server, but for now this is not a
|
||||
priority.
|
||||
|
||||
The initial goal for this project to come up with a good and simple solution
|
||||
for resumable file uploads over http.
|
||||
|
||||
* Defining a good http API (first proposal created)
|
||||
* Implementing a minimal and robust server for it (in progress)
|
||||
* Creating an HTML5 client (in progress, proof of concept working)
|
||||
* Setting up an online demo (done)
|
||||
* Integrating Amazon S3 for storage
|
||||
* Creating an iOS client
|
||||
|
||||
Future features will be based on [your
|
||||
feedback](https://github.com/tus/tusd/issues/new). A few potential ideas:
|
||||
|
||||
* Alternative transfer mechanisms: FTP, UDP, E-Mail, etc.
|
||||
* Security: Authentication Tokens, HTTPS, etc.
|
||||
* Support for running tusd instances in a geographically distributed cluster
|
||||
(reverse CDN)
|
||||
* Alternative storage backends: Cloud Files, Dropbox, etc.
|
||||
* More clients: Android, PhoneGap, etc.
|
||||
* Service integrations: Transloadit, Zencoder, Encoding.com, Youtube, Vimeo, Facebook, AWS
|
||||
Transcoder, etc.
|
||||
* File meta data analysis
|
||||
* Thumbnail generation
|
||||
|
||||
Once the project matures, we hope to offer a hosted service and support
|
||||
contracts. However, all code will continue to be released as open source, and
|
||||
you'll always be able to run your own deployments easily. There will be no bait
|
||||
and switch.
|
||||
**Protocol version:** 0.1 (upgrade to 0.2 will be ready soon)
