Station307 – Stream files between cURL, Wget and/or browser

Station307 – Stream files between cURL, Wget and/or browser launched on March 24, 2016 with 45 votes, #1,836 of 4,409 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 10 years on.

In plain words

Station307 is a file streaming tool that allows users to transfer files directly between cURL, Wget, and web browsers without size restrictions. Files are transferred securely and instantly without being stored on the service. Users can host files temporarily by running a command and stop hosting anytime by pressing Ctrl+C. The service maintains its core functionality while addressing long-standing issues through a recent major rewrite after eight years.

    Hey HN, At work, I was annoyed about having to download logs by writing them out to files and transferring them over to my local over HTTP (admittedly, this is because of a rather novel architectural situation). So, I built a tool in Go that lets you pipe contents into an SSH server for sending and reading them out on another connection. You can also use this tool to transfer files. Just cat the file on the sender end and redirect the output of the receiver end to a file. Please note that the transfer rate is heavily dependent on your connection and proximity to the public ssh.beam.camp…
