usage

% ./gossa --help

% ./gossa -h 192.168.100.33 ~/storage

fancier setups

release images are pushed to dockerhub, e.g. :

# pull from dockerhub and run
% sudo docker run -v ~/LocalDirToShare:/shared -p 8001:8001 pldubouilh/gossa

in a do-one-thing-well mindset, HTTPS and authentication has been left to middlewares and proxies. for instance caddy handles this very well - have a look at this small caddy config with authentication and option for HTTPS that works along with gossa.
