Raw Blame History

tus

A dedicated server for resumable file uploads written in Go.

Sounds interesting? Get notified when it's ready: http://tus.io/

Roadmap

The goal for this code base is to come up with a good and simple solution for resumable file uploads over http.

Defining a good http API (in progress)
Implementing a minimal / robust server for it
Creating an HTML5 client
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

Below is the proposed HTTP API for resumable file uploading.

Prior art:

POST /files

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

{
  "id": "123d3ebc995732b2",
  "url": "http://tus.example.com/files/123d3ebc995732b2",
  "received": 0,
  "size": 0,
  "parts": []
}

PUT /files/<id>

Request:

PUT /files/123d3ebc995732b2 HTTP/1.1
Host: tus.example.com
Content-Length: 100
Content-Range: bytes 0-99/100

[bytes 0-99]

Response:

HTTP/1.1 200 Ok

GET /files/123d3ebc995732b2

Request:

GET /files/123d3ebc995732b2/d930cc9d304cc667 HTTP/1.1
Host: tus.example.com

The server responds by informing the client about the state of the file upload upload:

{

  "received": 0,
  "size": 0,
  "parts": []
}
