Party UP!

'' ''

upload files and links to a copyparty server by sharing them to this app

primarily made for this year's meadup, letting a room full of nerds throw memes onto the big screen

only the PUT API is implemented for now so there is no resumable uploads yet

basic usage

• install the app
• open it and set your server url (and password if applicable)

now all share buttons in other apps/browsers will have "Party UP!" as an option, letting you upload pics / vids / twitter links / anything really

the full experience

setup a raspberry pi (raspbian or something else with a desktop) with the very-bad-idea plugin:

sudo apt install xdotool wmctrl libnotify-bin
curl -LO https://github.com/9001/copyparty/releases/latest/download/copyparty-sfx.py
curl -LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/9001/copyparty/hovudstraum/bin/mtag/very-bad-idea.py
python3 copyparty-sfx.py --urlform save,get -a kevin:hunter2 -v.::rw,kevin:c,e2d,e2t,mte=+a1:c,mtp=a1=ad,t3,kn,very-bad-idea.py

WARNING: by design, the very-bad-idea plugin makes it possible for anyone (with upload access) to hijack the copyparty server... so keep this on a LAN with people you trust, and give it a good password!

• and replace the example password hunter2 for the example account kevin as appropriate

now, every time someone uploads something, it'll appear on the screen

• there is no queue system, it just goes

check the startup script in the very-bad-idea docstring for some bonus features,

• display a QR-code on the screen which takes people to the upload page
• make chrome autoplay audio on all pages

also twitter-unmute.user.js to play twitter links with audio
