WayerPC

Desktop server that lets an Android phone pull and push files over a hotspot.

Wayer is two repos:

• This repo — PC app (Go backend + Wails frameless UI, SQLite catalog)
• ojilon/Wayer — Android client

The project is under active development. Protocol basics stay stable; the UI and import catalog are the current focus.

cmd /c "pnpm.cmd --dir frontend install"
cmd /c "pnpm.cmd --dir frontend build"
wails dev   # full app with the .data/ stub; or: wails build -platform windows/amd64 -o WayerPC.exe

The window starts the TCP server on 0.0.0.0:5000. Connect the phone to the same hotspot and use the Android client. Full instructions: BUILD.md.

Pick any drive/folder during setup (e.g. D:\projects\ → D:\projects\WayerPC\). You get bin\WayerPC.exe on the user PATH (terminal + Windows search) and data in data\ (shared/, received/, SQLite catalog).

• Stack — pure-Go backend (internal/), Wails + Vite + TypeScript frameless frontend (frontend/). No Python, no C++/DLLs.
• Console — server status, traffic stats, filterable/pausable live log.
• Import — search user storage (system paths skipped), tick results, or browse via OS dialogs. Paths are registered, never copied.
• Files — Received ⇄ Imported catalog ⇄ Shared segments, sorting, reveal-in-Explorer, missing-on-disk badges.
• Settings — choose/relocate the data folder, server address, version. First run shows onboarding when no data folder exists yet.
• SQLite catalog — Data/wayerpc.db (migrates the old imports.db automatically). /ask and query-style /upload use the 20%-similarity rule.
• Versioning — edit version.json before building; Go, frontend, and the installer all derive from it (node scripts/sync-version.mjs).
• .data/ — committed dev stub so clones build and test without touching real drives.

Phone wants a file from the PC.

1. Query the import catalog (exact name, then ≥ 20% similar names).
2. If one clear hit, respond FOUND <bytes> and stream the file.
3. If several related names: MATCHES <n> then one name per line.
4. Fallback: exact-name search over shared/ and received/.

Phone sends a file. Saved under received/. Cataloged so later /ask can find it.

No integer size → catalog search only (related imported names, same 20% rule).
