Share limits

[verarr]

It would be nice to be able to impose some limits on read-write shares, such as

• max individual file size
• max total size of uploaded files
• max number of files
• option to disable creating/uploading directories

These would be useful if you're sharing the link with people you don't trust that much to not fill up your entire storage.

They could work either globally(/per-volume) or per-share:

• global options only: every share has the same limits (this could also include a max lifetime for shares)
• per-share only: lacks admin control
• both: shares have maximum limits but can be further restricted per-share if needed

An existing alternative would be to have a dedicated volume for shares, but some situations might require more granular control, and it would be slightly inconvenient to have to move files between volumes before/after sharing.

You can already do all this. At least, I'm pretty sure nosub satisfies "option to disable creating/uploading directories."

[verarr]

These options would be for individual shares, not volumes.

I know I specified a volume as an alternative, but unlike shares, volumes can't be created dynamically / at runtime (afaik)

One usecase would be:

• user has read-write access to a volume
• user wants to give strangers temporary access to a subdirectory
• user doesn't want strangers to fill up the whole disk / max volume size or cause other inconveniences
