Homebrew Homebrew app [Release] ftpsrv - A small ftp server

[Deleted member 413168]

I decided to release my ftp server publicly. It has builds for various platforms, such as the wii, 3ds, nds etc...but i figure that most users of this app will be using the switch version
There exists 2 builds for the switch, application and sys-module. The application is to be launched via hbmenu, the sys-module runs in the background.

Performance wise, it out performs ftpd (application), sys-ftpd-light (sys-module) and a few other homebrew apps that feature ftp servers, all while having a smaller memory footprint.
Do keep in mind that the sys-module version will perform much slower than the application version due to reducing the amount of memory ftpsrv uses.

Whilst i'm here, i might as well release a public build of sphaira, my hb-menu replacement app. Have fun!

Good job, and I hate to be this guy asking for other stuff but it's only because I respect your skills I've used your apps before. Would it be possible to have an app that wakes the Switch from sleep with a PC homebrew app? I've gotten it to work occasionally with Client-RS/SysHidPlus usually by accident it's a long story but have never gotten it to work consistent. And everyone else says it's not possible but like I said I've done it, just seems the Switch goes in a deep sleep mode where emulating the home button can't wake it up anymore. I bet if someone looked at the code it maybe could be working.

I would assume that it's not possible without disabling deep sleep which would destroy battery life in sleep mode.

Neat! will test it out later. Feel free to try my ftp client for compatibility: https://cbftp.glftpd.io

 

[cucholix]

nvm, was using wrong auth method.
and, wow sphaira looks promising! A full file browser manager within hbmenu, really great

For me app version crash AMS when try to open it

I'm getting ams crash when trying to rename a file from Filezilla with sysmodule version

What was the file path from -> to, ams and fw version?

I was basing this around having it docked. If I have it in my hand I can just hit the power button.

Probably not gonna happen though. Oh well.

App version still crashing AMS when run it, AMS 1.8.0 prerelease, HOS 18.1.0

I tried sphaira and it's very good. Thanks. It's very similar in concept to Homebrew Details, but much faster. Will it be possible to completely replace hbmenu with further development?

When I looked at the settings, I could already replace it with hbmenu. It's great! Apart from that, I want to be able to create my own themes, and for users to create them. For example, if I could set the color and background.png of each one like nx activity log, I could unify the whole Switch. Also, I would like the option to display my favorite things at the top or hide them like the stars of hbmenu in the sort function!

hi. so sphaira won't have stars like hbmenu does. apps are sorted based on timestamps. so if you launch retroarch, itll be placed at the top of the list, or if you install a new app from the appstore, itll be at the top of the list. This is also the case if you create a forwarder using sphaira. I think this behavior is better than the star system. For example, lets say you have lots of apps installed and have all your favorite ones stared, but you often launch retroarch. You would have to scroll pretty far down due to the alphabetical sorting of the stars.

you can create your own themes, they go in /config/sphaira/themes/

here is an example of the abyss theme. You can either use colours or an image for the background too.

App version still crashing AMS when run it, AMS 1.8.0 prerelease, HOS 18.1.0

does it crash for you on renamaing a file or just in general? could you provide the error code?

i've fixed (again) the rename bug on the switch. it was an issue with the path translation.

After install sphaira forwarder from sphaira, it occur software errors while launch sphaira forwarder.
my friend successed installed sphaira forwarder without any launch issues, it should be my issues.

And it can't connect via ftpsrv on my pc, tried change ports, pc system,
It works only on my iphone, i had open an issues on github.

Testing for the first time the 1.1.2 version and so far working like a charm, I see

[Nx]
# enables showing all available mount points at root "/"
# for example, SdCard is as at "/sdmc:"
mount_devices = 1

# mounts the application save data, needs mount_devices = 1
save_application_id = 0x0100F2C0115B6000

# mounts the application bcat data, needs mount_devices = 1
bcat_application_id = 0x0100F2C0115B6000

on the config, but my client only shows:

I can no see the savegame mount, is a task to do or something is wrong on my config?

By the way @TotalJustice Thanks a lot for all your work on the scene, you always give us excellent homebrew, you always are ready to teach us and share your knowledge.

Regards from Colombia.

Hello, will Sphaira support other languages?

 

[Medel87]

In general, I can't even open the app, but I just realized that it only happens in applet mode.
