freepost

This is the code powering freepost, a free discussion board that allows users to post text and links that other users can read and comment.

Development

Setup Python3 virtual environment

cd freepost-directory
python3 -m venv venv (if this doesn't work, try `virtualenv -p python3 venv`)
source venv/bin/activate
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Run test server

source venv/bin/activate
python3 -m bottle --debug --reload --bind 127.0.0.1:8000 freepost

Build stylesheets

Build CSS files

stylus --watch --compress --disable-cache --out freepost/static/css/ freepost/static/stylus/freepost.styl

Deployment

  • Build CSS stylesheets (see Development above)
  • Copy all files to your public_html folder
  • Make sure settings.yaml has restricted permissions, for instance 0600
  • If the SQLite database is located in the same HTML folder, make sure this too has restricted access
  • Rename .htaccess.wsgi or .htaccess.cgi to .htaccess (if you use CGI or WSGI)
  • Change settings in settings.yaml if needed
  • Create Python virtual environment For tuxfamily only: run newgrp freepost before creating the virtenv, for quota reasons
  • Create a new empty SQLite database: cat database.schema.sql | sqlite3 database.sqlite

Everything should be setup and working. Make sure your CGI or WSGI server is configured correctly.
