own-text-channel-hub

own-text-channel-hub

HTTP server that lets you create a listing of own-text-channel instances to help users find what they want easier.

How to host

Dependencies

Only python3 is required; all other modules (os, sqlite3, codecs and socket) come preinstalled with most installations.

Installation

This part is pretty easy and straightforward; you just need to download this repository and run server.py

git clone https://notabug.org/dymik739/own-text-channel-hub.git
cd own-text-channel-hub
python3 server.py

That's all you need to do! Now the server will be accessible on all network interfaces on port 8080. Of course, you can use it inside of a screen to make it more stable if it is hosted on a remote machine.

Further support

To stop the server you can just press Ctrl+C and to start it again use python3 server.py or just ./server.py (whichever one you like more)

Something is broken!

If you encounter bugs, it doesn't start or run on your system or you stumble across other weird stuff - feel free to open an issue on this project's page! It would greately help to improve the project and you will get a working instance. (keep in mind - Windows is not supported)
