Scribe - An Alternative Medium Frontend
This is a project written using Lucky. It's main website is scribe.rip.
Deploying Your Own
I'd love it if you deploy your own version of this app! To do so currently will take some knowledge of how a webserver runs. If you want to give it a shot, there are a bunch of different ways to deploy. The main site runs on Ubuntu but there are also directions for Heroku or Dokku.
One thing to note is that this app doesn't currently use a database. Any instructions around postgres can be safely ignored. Lucky (and it's dependency Avram) however does need a DATABASE_URL formatted for postgres. It doesn't need to be the URL of an actual database server though. Here's mine: DATABASE_URL=postgres://does@not/mater
Hopefully a more comprehensive guide will be written at some point, but for now feel free to reach out if you have any questions. My contact info can be found on my website.
Docker
A Dockerfile is included to build and run your own OCI images. To build:
$ docker build [--build-arg PUID=1000] [--build-arg PGID=1000] -t scribe:latest -f ./Dockerfile .
To run (generating a base config from environment variables):
$ docker run -it --rm -p 8080:8080 -e SCRIBE_PORT=8080 -e SCRIBE_HOST=0.0.0.0 -e SCRIBE_DB=postgres://does@not/matter scribe:latest
To run with mounted config from local fs:
$ docker run -it --rm -v `pwd`/config/watch.yml:/app/config/watch.yml -p 8080:8080 scribe:latest
Contributing
- Install required dependencies (see sub-sections below)
- Run
script/setup - Run
lucky devto start the app - Send a patch to
~edwardloveall/Scribe@lists.sr.ht(yes that's an email address).
- To be honest, I'm not sure how I feel about the send patch git workflow as opposed to the GitHub style pull request workflow. I'm trying it out for now. If you can't figure it out, get in contact and we can figure out a way to get your contributions in.
Installing dependencies
General instructions for installing Lucky and its dependencies can be found at https://luckyframework.org/guides/getting-started/installing#install-required-dependencies.
Installing dependencies with Nix
If you are using the Nix package manager, you can get a shell with all dependencies with the following command(s):
nix-shell
# Or if you are using the (still experimental) Nix Flakes feature
nix flake update # Update dependencies (optional)
nix develop
