GoShare

GoShare is a command-line tool written in Golang that allows users to easily share file content with others using a temporary URL.

go-demo-final.mov

Usage

To share a file, use the following command:

goshare <file_path>

Replace <file_path> with the path to the file you want to share.

Prerequisites

• Make sure you have NGROK installed on your system.
• Golang
• Git

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/sahildotexe/go-code-share.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd go-code-share

3. Build the executable:

   go build -o goshare

4. Move the executable to a directory in your system's PATH:

   For MacOs/ Linux :

   sudo mv goshare /usr/local/bin/

Example

goshare /folder/file.go

The tool will generate an NGROK URL that others can use to access the shared file.

How It Works

1. The tool checks if the user provided a file path.
2. It verifies if the file exists.
3. Creates a temporary directory and a copy of the file to serve.
4. Spawns an NGROK process to expose a local HTTP server.
5. Retrieves the NGROK URL.
6. Prints the NGROK URL for sharing.
