ZipServer-Go

ZipServer-Go is a lightweight Golang web server that serves static files directly from a ZIP file without extracting it. The server optionally supports an SSL/TLS layer for secure communication.

Features

• Serve static files directly from a ZIP file without extraction.
• Optional SSL/TLS support with client certificate validation.
• Configurable IP address and port for the server.

Installation

To install the dependencies, you'll need to have Go installed on your machine. Then, run:

go get github.com/octopwn/zipserver-go

Usage

To run the server, use the following command:

go run main.go [options] <path_to_zipfile>

Options

• -a <address>: IP/hostname to listen on. Default is 127.0.0.1.
• -p <port>: Port to listen on. Default is 8000.
• --ssl-cert <file>: Path to the SSL certificate file.
• --ssl-key <file>: Path to the SSL key file.
• --ssl-ca <file>: Path to the CA certificate file for client certificate validation.

Examples

1. Basic usage without TLS:

   go run main.go -a 127.0.0.1 -p 8080 /path/to/static_files.zip
   

2. Usage with TLS:

   go run main.go -a 127.0.0.1 -p 8443 --ssl-cert /path/to/cert.pem --ssl-key /path/to/key.pem /path/to/static_files.zip
   

3. Usage with TLS and client certificate validation:

   go run main.go -a 127.0.0.1 -p 8443 --ssl-cert /path/to/cert.pem --ssl-key /path/to/key.pem --ssl-ca /path/to/ca.pem /path/to/static_files.zip
   

Example Output

If you run the server with the following command:

go run main.go -p 8000 /path/to/static_files.zip

You can access the contents of the ZIP file in your browser at http://localhost:8000/.
