Flat theme for nginx's fancyindex module

About

The fancyindex module of nginx has the powerful capability to be customizable. Instead of using an external application, this gives us the ability to use just the webserver's capabilities to generate beautiful directory listings.

This theme provides a simple, flat interface based on Bootstrap 4, Font Awesome and (for easy navigation in galleries) lightbox2. In combination with the browser's preview capability, accessing the majority of files should be possible, giving the user easy access without a single line of server-side dynamic code.

Usage

1. Get the latest resources from GitHub releases or build them on your own by running make inside this repository and copy these files into any location accessible by nginx.
2. Configure your vhost to use the theme's resources for fancyindex:

   # Fancyindex
   fancyindex             on;
   fancyindex_header      "/theme/header.html";
   fancyindex_footer      "/theme/footer.html";
   fancyindex_show_path   off;
   fancyindex_name_length 255;
   fancyindex_exact_size  off;
   fancyindex_localtime   on;
   
   location /theme/{
       alias /srv/www/fileserver/theme/;
   }
