partycopy

Simple CLI file transfer utility for copyparty servers.

The utility acts similarly to scp and uses curl and jq under the hood.

Requirements to build:

• make
• ldc2
• upx (optional)

Requirements to run:

• a copyparty server
• curl
• jq

Build

make
make compress
sudo/doas make install

Usage

First create a server config file under /etc/partycopy/server_name.cfg (or same directory as executable on Windows):

<username>
<password>
<protocol (e.g. https)>
<domain>
<response_format (e.g. json)>

The utility works best if you have Read-Write-Delete permissions for your server user on the remote directory.

Run the utility (partycopy, symlinked to pcp) to upload, delete or download files.

pcp <server_name> <remote_directory> [operation = PUT] ["--verbose"]

where <server_name> corresponds to a configuration file named "server_name.cfg", file is a local or remote file depending on the operation, operation is to upload, delete or download a file AND "--verbose" is an optional switch to show each server operation.

Upload (local) file.

For instance, to upload the file partycopy.7z to the junk directory on the homelab server, run:

pcp homelab partycopy.7z junk PUT

The PUT or 0 operation is the default, so it can be omitted for the same effect.

Delete (remote) file.

To delete the remote file partycopy.7z in the junk directory on the homelab server, run:

pcp homelab partycopy.7z junk DEL

DEL or 1 operation is used.

Download (remote) file.

To download the remote file partycopy.7z in the junk directory on the homelab server, run:

pcp homelab partycopy.7z junk GET

GET or 2 operation is used.
