Directory Theme

A simple, customizable theme for your Apache or nginx directory listing. Here is a demo of what the result looks like: gif library.

Features

  • search the directory and display results, as the user inputs the search term
  • custom styling of the default directory indexing
  • .html files are linked to without the file extension (ex. http://localhost/example.html -> http://localhost/example)
  • changes "Last modified" column to display time as time since (ex. 2 minutes ago, 4 days ago, etc)

Apache Features

Apache Setup

Be sure you have mod_autoindex loaded on your server.

$ cd into_vhost_root_directory_you_want_to_be_prettified/
$ git clone [email protected]:jessfraz/directory-theme.git

# move the directory contents to the parent directory
$ cd directory-theme/
$ mv * .[^.]* ..
# you may get an output of: mv: cannot stat ‘*’: No such file or directory
# that's fine, if you `ls -a` the directory it should be empty
$ cd ../

# remove nginx items & .git just so it doesn't mess with your other stuff
$ rm -rf directory-theme.conf
$ rm -rf .git*

Then, view your virtual host in your favorite browser, cough Chrome cough.

nginx Setup

Be sure you have ngx_http_addition_module loaded on your server.

$ cd into_vhost_root_directory_you_want_to_be_prettified/
$ git clone [email protected]:jessfraz/directory-theme.git

# move the directory contents to the parent directory
$ cd directory-theme/
$ mv * .[^.]* ..
# you may get an output of: mv: cannot stat ‘*’: No such file or directory
# that's fine, if you `ls -a` the directory it should be empty
$ cd ../

# remove apache items & .git just so it doesn't mess with your other stuff
$ rm -rf .htaccess
$ rm -rf .git*

# rename directory-theme.conf to your site config name ex. lab.jessfraz.com
# at the same time moving it to the sites-available folder
$ sudo mv directory-theme.conf /etc/nginx/sites-available/lab.jessfraz.com

# edit the relevant fields for your setup
# these are server_name and root
$ sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/lab.jessfraz.com

# activate the host by creating a symbolic link between
# the sites-available directory and the sites-enabled directory
$ sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/lab.jessfraz.com /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/lab.jessfraz.com

# restart nginx
$ sudo service nginx restart

Then, view your virtual host in your favorite browser, cough Chrome cough.
