Secure Download

A little go server with secure download support.

Run the binary

Run in your teminal:

$ SECRET_KEY=your-secret-key secure-download [folder]
  • SECRET_KEY: A secret token for generate signature
  • PORT: HTTP server port
  • SIGNATURE_IP: Add client IP into signature

A full example:

$ SECRET_KEY=your-secret-key SIGNATURE_IP=yes PORT=8700 secure-download [folder]

Client Signature

A request URL looks like:

http://example.com/path/download.bin?e=1485015757&s=be3347c7

Parameter e is expire time, s is signature.

signature = md5(${SECRET_KEY} + ${URLPATH} + $expires [ + $remote_addr ])[8:16]

Example when not including client IP:

  1. secret key: secret
  2. expires time: 1485015757
  3. request path: /book/hello.epub

The base string is secret/book/hello.epub1485015757, its md5 hexdigest is ba68c8d4c8d6dde327925df16cea8b17. Slice hexdigest with [8:16], therefore, the request URL is:

http://example.com/book/hello.epub?e=1485015757&s=c8d6dde3
