OverflowError

[f-o]

Hello,

First of all, thank you for this very useful module.

I'm trying to upload a folder with 42 files, totaling 80.4 GB.
gofile -s <PATH TO FOLDER>

Unfortunate I'm running into an overflow error.
OverflowError: string longer than 2147483647 bytes

Stack trace is as follows:

OverflowError: string longer than 2147483647 bytes

I understand that it's most likely caused by the total size of the upload, but I'm hoping you can take a look at this, and hopefully be able to figure some solution out.

Once again, thank you for this awesome script!

Thank you for reporting the issue!
The error you're encountering, OverflowError: string longer than 2147483647 bytes, is likely due to the total size of the upload exceeding http.client's limitations. While reading the file in chunks could potentially resolve this, I don't plan to implement this unless it becomes a frequent issue.
