BXR Released

    
BXR
 

 

Hi Everyone! We released BXR today, a free, open source, file management sytem. It is based off of Boxroom, an open source file management project. BXR allows you to create folders, users, and groups, and assign permissions, so you can secure different folder and files. You can also search for files and folders, either by keyword, or by file content. Organization of files is easy! Besides being able to upload files to different folders, you can also add specific tags/labels to each file.

Check out the project page at:

Or try out a demo at(username: admin - password: admin):

You can also track the development of BXR, if you want to report a bug, suggest new features, and so on, in the Hulihan Applications Software Development System :

Enjoy!

Mischa - Just letting you know that BXR now runs on Rails 2.2.x. It was a pretty easy switch over from 1.2.x, we just had to update a few configuration settings and deprecated functions.

Hey Mischa - Glad to hear from you. I really enjoyed working on Boxroom, very well written. Right now BXR is still running on Rails 1.2.6, but we'll be trying to move it up to the current version of rails soon. I'll let you know what happens. Thanks again for your hard work!

Hi, my name is Mischa Berger. I am the original developer of Boxroom. It's nice to see someone is continuing the development of Boxroom. I was wondering on which version of Rails BXR runs. Probably 2.2.2 or 2.2.3, right? My last release was on 1.2.x, so I was wondering if it was a lot of hassle to get everything working? If not I may do a new release of Boxroom which works on the latest Rails version. Anyway, good luck on BXR!
