imagehoster

This is a really simple utility you can use to serve images from your own domain. Think of it like your own, personal imgur.

All the other GitHub repos I found were awfully bloated for my use case, so I just decided to make my own. It's extremely fast, extensible, and written in less than 100 lines of Go.

Setup

Once you build the utility, you just need to set these things:

• $USAGE_KEY (env) : Authorization header that it looks for in POST requests
• -p (flag) : Port that the utility listens to (Default: 4000)
• -dir (flag) : Directory where images will be stored (Default: ./uploads/)

Usage

The utility is used entirely through its REST endpoints:

Request	Description
GET /:image	Gets an image identified by that tag.
POST /upload	Creates a new image.

Tips

1. This utility is ShareX-friendly. You can use the information above to add it as a private ShareX endpoint in your settings (I'm not on Windows so I wouldn't know much about actually configuring this, though).
2. If you want to include a landing page when the user hits /, just add an index.html file in that directory.
