./scripts/build
# As root
./scripts/install --prefix=/usr

#Supported Platforms

stargazer is targeted at Linux. It should work on MacOS, Windows, and other platforms that it's dependencies support but it's not currently tested on those platforms.

#Configuration

By default stargazer read the config from /etc/stargazer.ini, but this can be changed by with the -C flag. A sample config is included in the project root and is installed to /usr/share/stargazer/config.ini.

#Usage

See stargazer(1) for cli options and stargazer.ini(5) for config instructions.

#Security

Stargazer is alpha software and as such should be assumed to be insecure. As such, running stargazer as an unprivileged user or in a container is probably a good idea. At this stage of development only the latest release of stargazer is supported so please only run the latest version. Security fixes will not be back ported to old releases.

#Know security issues

#FIXED Root escape - pre 0.4.0

Stargazer would serve files from anywhere on the file system if a path starting with // was requested.

#Copying

All of the source code and resulting binaries of stargazer is licensed under the terms of the GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE Version 3.
