Resumable file uploads
March 28th, 2009
I have a pretty fun little resumable file uploader, I wrote using google gears and a tiny ruby rack file. It’s possible to put this uploader behind an nginx or apache and share a session . It can upload multiple files and keep track of the progress of each file. Uploads can be paused and resumed. This works because the files are split into chunks and uploaded 1 meg at a time. The source is here: http://github.com/taf2/resume-up/tree/master
Here’s a fun screen shot of it in action:
