A super simple, super fast way to transfer text and URLs between devices.

Author's Note: It's pronounced "receive", but you're free to call it whatever.

• You can use the website directly: recv.live

• You can install the website as a PWA, and share directly to it to instantly create a room

• You can download and install the recv CLI app from the Releases page:

  • Windows:

    • rename the recv-windows-XX.exe file to recv.exe and add it to PATH
    • simply type recv to create a room
    • type recv <roomcode> to join a room, eg. recv 12345

  • MacOS/Linux:

    • Extract recv from the recv-PLATFORM-XX.tar.gz file, and add it to PATH

      For eg. on linux you can do:

      tar -xvzf recv-linux-x86-64.tar.gz
      sudo install ./dist/recv /usr/local/bin

• Server (Includes the website)

  cd server
  go build ./cmd/server
  ./server

  This will run the web server on localhost:8000

  You can specify a port using the -p flag (defaults to 8000):

  ./server -p 5000

• CLI

  cd server
  go build -o recv ./cmd/cli
  ./recv 12345

• Server

  Edit the default parameters at the top of the the script tag in index.html. These include the website's domain name, and whether or not to use HTTPS/WSS.

  During development, you'll have to edit DOMAIN to be localhost:8000 (or whichever port you choose to run it at), and SECURE to be false.

  you will need air installed for hot reload

  air -c .air.toml

  You can specify a port using the PORT environment variable:

  PORT=5000 air -c .air.toml

• CLI

  Edit the default parameters in InitConfig in config.go. These include the website's domain name, and whether or not to use HTTPS/WSS.

  Note that in dev mode (when APP_ENV=dev) you'll always use http and localhost.

  APP_ENV=dev go run ./cmd/cli

  You can specify port and room code using environment variables:

  PORT=5000 ROOM=12345 go run ./cmd/cli
