Teldrive
Teldrive is a web-based cloud storage interface that uses Telegram as a backend for storing and organizing files. It functions as an encrypted cloud drive and a remote storage bridge, allowing users to manage files through a dedicated file manager.
The system optimizes data throughput by using a proxy to aggregate multiple authentication tokens, which bypasses single-account rate limits to increase upload and download speeds. It ensures data privacy through per-file salt encryption for both file data and metadata.
The project covers remote file management, including the ability to mount storage as a standard remote volume for synchronization with other cloud services. It includes capabilities for private media hosting with external media server integration, multi-threaded stream buffering to reduce playback latency, and on-the-fly image thumbnail generation.
Administrative features include database-backed file indexing, automated backup and restoration, and access control based on signed tokens and username whitelists.
Features
- Telegram Cloud Storage Interfaces - Provides a dedicated web interface to use Telegram as a backend for storing and organizing files.
- File Browser Interfaces - Provides a dedicated web-based file manager interface to organize and access files stored on Telegram.
- File Encryption - Secures files using per-file salt encryption to ensure data remains private without a master key.
- Salted Per-File Encryption - Secures individual files using unique salts and a master key to ensure data privacy in remote storage.
- Metadata Encryption - Secures sensitive file information using a configurable encryption key to prevent unauthorized data recovery.
- Telegram Channel Indexing - Imports and indexes channels from a Telegram account to organize files within the user interface.
