CRUD application to navigate and perform actions on the user's filesystem
This application utilizes a basic seperation between the api and the domain layer. The UI is built with JQuery, Ajax, and Materialize for quick CSS styling.
Before running, set the HomeDirectory property in the appsettings.json to a preferred directory on your machine.
Now that the core functionality is built, the following are work items that should be tackled as the new high priority items:
- Unit Testing: Utilize Moq and XUnit to build a large library of unit tests with mocking
- Split code into additional logical groups
- Turn the UI into self contained components
- Containerize the application with Docker
- If additional functionality is needed, especially if persistence is ever required, the code would need to be further split into a domain layer and a repository layer.
The following are potential new features that can be added:
- Move & Rename: Support moving or renaming files/folders
- Preview: Quick preview for images, PDFs, and text files
- Search & Filter: Search by filename or extension; filter by type
- Sorting: Sort by name, size, or modified date
- Enhanced Upload: Multi-file upload, drag-and-drop, progress tracking
- User Management: Role-based read/write/delete permissions
- Versioning: Keep older versions of files
- Favorites: Bookmark frequently used folders
- Audit Logging: Track uploads, downloads, deletes
- Bulk Operations: Select and manage multiple items at once
- Multi User Management In Realtime: Allow multiple users to perform admin functions at the same time (think Google Docs/Sheets)
