About

DriveCellar is a self-hosted file browser for storage you already own. Point it at local folders or S3-compatible buckets—no new blob store. You get a web UI to browse, search, tag, share with links, and manage team access. Less heavy than a full cloud suite; nicer than SSH or the raw S3 console.

Features

• Storage: Local paths; S3-compatible (AWS, MinIO, R2, etc.); multiple connections per workspace
• Files: Browse, upload/download, folders, rename, delete
• Search & organization: Indexed search; tags with optional colors/icons
• Sharing: Public links with optional expiry and password protection
• Auth & teams: Email/password authentication; workspaces; roles (owner, admin, member); connection defaults and per-user overrides
• Indexing: Auto index on new connection; manual re-index; optional schedule; run history

Why I built it

I wanted a simpler alternative to full cloud storage suites for cases where the storage already exists. The project focuses on making self-hosted storage easier to browse, share, and control without taking ownership of the underlying files.
