express-file-manager

express-file-manager

This is an Express middleware that provides a nice UI for editing files on the web.

Text files are opened/edited using Ace. The directory browser and image preview pages can accept drag-and-drop, and will upload files.

This is intended for use as an "admin interface". There is no security in this module - if you don't want the entire internet to be able to modify your folder, you should put in access control for the relevant subpaths;

Usage

var fileManager = require('express-file-manager');

app.use('/filemanager', fileManager(directory, options));

Options

• options.textExtensions - a list of file extensions to be considered "text"
• options.textTypes - a list of MIME types (string match or RegExp) to be considered "text".

By default, .gitignore files, and anything with a mime types like */json, */*+json, */xml, */*+xml and */javascript are considered text. MIME types that start with text/* are always considered text.
