#### Self-hosted file management and sharing system

Cloudreve is a self-hosted cloud drive. Upload, organize, preview and
share files from a browser or over WebDAV, with several users and groups.
Files can be kept on this machine, on another Cloudreve node, on OneDrive
or on S3-compatible and other object storage.

**Getting started**

The service starts right after installation and listens on
127.0.0.1:5212 (this machine only). Open <http://localhost:5212> and
register an account: the first registered account becomes the
administrator.

To open it to your network:

```
sudo snap set cloudreve listen=:5212
```

**Data and settings**

The configuration file, the SQLite database and uploaded files are kept
in /var/snap/cloudreve/common/data. Database, Redis, TLS and slave node
settings go in conf.ini in that folder; restart the service after
editing it. To store files on disks mounted under /media or /mnt:

```
sudo snap connect cloudreve:removable-media
```

This is the community edition, without the optional helper programs:
thumbnails are made for JPEG, PNG and GIF images and music covers only,
and remote download needs a separately installed aria2 or qBittorrent.

## Enable snaps on Kubuntu and install Cloudreve

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

If you’re running [Kubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus)](https://kubuntu.org/) or later, including [Kubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu) and [Kubuntu 18.10 (Cosmic Cuttlefish)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CosmicCuttlefish/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu), you don’t need to do anything. Snap is already installed and ready to go.

Versions of Kubuntu between [14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr)](https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-14-04-lts) and [15.10 (Wily Werewolf)](https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-15-10) don’t include *snap* by default, but *snap* can be installed from the command line as follows:

```
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
```
