I searched on Internet regarding file transfer from one place to other and found that we need to upload files and then share link with friends. Then my friend can download the file using that link.
I want to transfer files of any size without uploading to a third-party server using php for my project.
i Google on Internet regarding this n found www.pipebytes.com
what kind of mechanism it use ? Is it possible with php language?
So that we do not have to upload any data to any server.
Thank you!!
The "file is sent to the recipient" is slightly misleading, as far as I can see there is no real peer-to-peer process involved here. The file is stored on their server, and delivered to the recipient if they manage to enter the correct code.
Steps:
File upload
Storing the file somewhere in the filesystem
Storing the code specified by the user somewhere, e.g. a database
Sending an E-Mail to the recipient
Serving the file to the recipient
