# hoist
one part of the hoist/yoink system for transferring files over the gemini
protocol

based on part 7 of 
[this post](https://lists.orbitalfox.eu/archives/gemini/2020/001632.html)
by solderpunk

this system is a PROOF OF CONCEPT and should not be expected to be particularly
safe, secure, or reliable

## requirements
- [jetforce](https://github.com/michael-lazar/jetforce)
- [gmni](https://git.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/gmni)

## how to use
- clone this repo
- make sure your port 1965 is open to the internet
- `./hoist.sh filename.ext`
    - file extensions are mandatory
- if all goes well, your file will be transferred and you will be given a link
to it

## notes
- ideally i would be using gmnisrv here instead of jetforce but i had some
trouble getting it to work, hopefuly i can switch over at some point because
the current pairing is a bit absurd
