Started working on this a few weeks ago.  

 

http://fileflows.com

 

Heres a YouTube Playlist (still learning how to do these, the audio started bad, getting better)

 

Basically, it's a rule-based file processor.   Lets you automatically take actions on files as they are found. 

 

It's very influenced by node-red and some Unity AI plugins I've used in the past.   I was using unmaniac and I tried tdarr to do this, but found those too difficult/clunky to use for my use case.   

 

But my primary goal of this is to automatically convert video files to my preferred format of h265/AC3.     I have a cut-down live demo available on fileflows.com (Safari doesn't work, I don't have an easy way to dev for Safari, I'll sort it if there's enough demand).    It's available as a docker file and in the unRAID community app store.  

Written in C#/Blazor (.net 6).   So can run pretty much anywhere.  Will likely do a Windows build at some point, if there's enough interest. 

But basically, it's great if you want to do something automatically with your files

 

  • Convert videos to certain types
  • Automatically remove black bars from videos
  • Normalize audio levels in videos
  • Move pictures into a /year/month/day folder structure based on when they were taken.
  • Automatically move certain files/folders to another location
  • Automatically delete unwanted files (Thumbs.db, .nfo files etc - pattern match so can be anything).

Always keen on feedback/suggestions

HackerNews? Use "Show HN" like this one: Show HN: AlterClass – A platform for making and selling programming courses | Hacker News (ycombinator.com)

 

Prepare for a big spike in traffic.

 

Perhaps put your app behind Cloudflare or similar before (if not already)?

Never used hackernews before.   Posted now.  My hosting provider claims some big numbers for traffic.  Curious how well it works.    I'm currently on a 2month trial so this may make me stay with them or leave :)

And I don't have enough karma to vouch for it.

I am emailing them to reconsider. I would also suggest you use Cloudflare to at least get the automatic SSL for your site.

thanks.  I'm guessing it was an automatic s/w flag as I just signed up to post it

 

 

 

Signed up to cloudflare and updated nameservers, set to use https.

Once Cloudflare updates, create the SSL certificate you should set it to always use HTTPS.

I will, my trial account with my hosting provider doesn't include a cert, but the paid one I'll go to does.   I did set cloudflare to always HTTPS.  but as you know takes a day or so for dns to update.

Ok, will clarify a few points.

 

You don't need to buy a cert - Cloudflare issues an origin certificate you can install if you want, for free. Assuming you can install third-party certificates on your server.

 

DNS does not propagate. DNS is PULL not PUSH. Records have a TTL and a DNS look will cache the record for the time set in the TTL. When the TTL expires a new request is sent out and the cache updated. If you are using a DNS that never had to lookup the record then it will be fresh. "DNS propagation delays" is basically badly configured DNS that don't respect the TTL.

 

To see what response a fresh DNS query would get, check DNS Checker - DNS Propagation Check & DNS Lookup (whatsmydns.net)

thanks.  thought cloudflare operated a little differently.  Never used it before.  

 

 

 

my host doesn't allow a custom cert on trial, requires a static IP to do that.  And once I upgrade, ill get a free certain anyway with them, and ill turn on HTTPS. It's mostly a static site, with no logins, so it's not a huge deal at the moment.  But I am aware Chrome will be rejecting non HTTPS traffic soonish.  

Ill likely upgrade in a couple of days, was just evaluating them to make sure it could handle everything I needed.   And I was considering linode or some alternative dockerise host.
