Flunkey is a minimal download portal. It's designed as a add-on to OS X Server, using technologies like QuickLook and Spotlight available on OS X.
Flunkey lets users download files and directories over the web. It's easier to use than plain FTP and offers additional abilities like fast file preview and on-demand zipping of directories. Flunkey integrates with the standard web services on OS X Server: It can be configured on any web host, with or without SSL. Authentication is handled by OS X Server, allowing users and/or groups to use the download facility.
OS X Server is recommended but not actually required. Since Flunkey doesn't do user authentication, you'd need something else than OS X Server to maintain a list of user credentials.
Install it on OS X as:
$ gem install flunkey
OS X 10.9 comes standard with Ruby 2.0. Earlier releases of OS X include Ruby 1.8, you need to install Ruby 1.9 or higher using RVM or other means.
