+By default, HardFiles listens on port `5000`. For production environments, it's recommended to use a robust web server like Nginx or Caddy to proxy traffic to this port.

+For obtaining the Let's Encrypt certificates, you can use tools like `certbot` that automatically handle the certification process for you. If you elect to use Caddy, in most circumstances it is able to handle certificates for you using Let's Encrypt.

+## cURL Uploads
+
+You can upload files using cURL like so:
+
+```shell
+curl -F file=@$1 https://hardfiles.org/
+```
+
+Additionally, you can append some extra options to modify the expiry time or file name length. Currently the file expiry time must be provided in seconds and is limited to 5 days maximum. The file name length is limited to 128 characters. The following example will return a file that expires in 48 hours rather than the default 24 and a file name length of 64 characters:
+
+```shell
+curl -F file=@$1 -F expiry=172800 -F url_len=64 https://hardfiles.org/
+```
+
+### Bash Alias
 
 If you frequently upload files to HardFiles via the command line, you can streamline the process by setting up a bash alias. This allows you to use a simple command, like `upload`, to push your files to HardFiles using `curl`.
 
 #### Setting Up:
+
 1. **Edit your `.bashrc` file:** Open your `~/.bashrc` file in a text editor. You can use `nano` or `vim` for this purpose:
 ```shell
 nano ~/.bashrc
 ```

 2. **Add the `upload` function:** At the end of the `.bashrc` file, append the following function (replace the domain if you are running your own instance):
 ```shell
 upload() {
     curl -F file=@$1 https://hardfiles.org/
 }
 ```
