copyparty operates as a monolithic, multi-protocol network service, centered around its Core Server & Orchestration component which manages the application's lifecycle and coordinates all other services. Incoming client requests are handled by the Network Protocol Handlers, which support various protocols like HTTP, FTP, and SMB, or by the specialized Web Interface & API for web-based interactions and SPA serving. Both protocol handlers and the web interface rely on the Authentication & Access Control component to validate user credentials and enforce permissions, which in turn influences the File System & Media Management component to provide authorized access to files, generate media thumbnails, and stream archives on demand. This architecture ensures a cohesive flow from network reception to secure data delivery.
Core Server & Orchestration [Expand]
