- # freepost
- This is the code powering [freepost](https://freepo.st), 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 /usr/bin/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
- # Deployment
- - Copy all files to your `public_html` folder
- - 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`
- - 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
- Everything should be setup and working. Make sure your CGI or WSGI server is
- configured correctly.
