# Flmngr Node backend

> Server-side part of the Flmngr file manager for JavaScript/TypeScript

[![Flmngr file manager screenshot](https://flmngr.com/img/browsing.jpg)](https://flmngr.com)

[Flmngr file manager](https://flmngr.com) is used to upload and manage files and images. Can be a standalone file manager (React/Angular/etc. or custom JavaScript or TypeScript integrations) or work together with [TinyMCE](https://flmngr.com/doc/install-tinymce-plugin), [CKEditor 4](https://flmngr.com/doc/install-ckeditor-plugin), [CKEditor 5](https://flmngr.com/doc/install-ckeditor-5-plugin), [N1ED](https://n1ed.com), or any other JS components.

This package is a server-side implementation needed to support requests from the file manager dialog when using Node on the server. It will handle some single URL and let the file manager receive file lists and send file commands to the server.

## This is a library

This package is a library for custom integrations. Use it if there is no integration for your framework. At this moment Flmngr has a set of Node backend packages:

- **Backend library** (you are here)
- [Express module](https://flmngr.com/doc/install-file-manager-server-node-express)
- [Nest module](https://flmngr.com/doc/install-file-manager-server-node-nest)
- [Standalone server](https://flmngr.com/doc/install-file-manager-server-microservice)


## Install
Install the [Flmngr NPM package](https://npmjs.com/package/@flmngr/flmngr-server-node) using the console command in the project folder:

```
npm require flmngr/flmngr-server-node
```

Then follow the [integration manual](https://flmngr.com/doc/install-file-manager-server-node-custom) to route requests from your app to it.

## Debugging

In case of any problem, we have a **very** detailed Question-Answer [debug manual](https://flmngr.com/doc/file-manager-debug).
