transmet

Quick fast personal link store that exports to a HTML template for quick posting to a blog

Usecase: storing interesting news articles you come across during a week with at the moment notes/commentary and then exporting in a currated organized format for immediate blog posting at your convience

Note

As this is a personal project, some of the niceities like user managment are left to be done in SQL. I needed a tool to store links and export to html so that's what I've focused on.

Install

go get github.com/dballard/transmet

DB setup

sudo apt-get install postgres postgresql-contrib

Setup postgres to handle a local connection for transmet in pg_hba.conf either: '''host transmet transmet 127.0.0.1/32 md5''' or a more liberal: '''host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5 ''' and do the same for '''host all all ::1/128 md5''' ipv6

create ssl certs and put them somewhere

enable SSL in postgresql.conf ''' ssl = true ssl_cert_file = 'WHER_YOU_PUT/server.crt' ssl_key_file = 'WHERE_YOU_PUT/server.key'
'''

Create postgress DB and user

'''sh sudo -u postgres --or-- sudo su - postgres createuser -S -P -E transmet createdb --owner transmet --encoding utf8 transmet psql \c transmet CREATE EXTENSION pgcrypto; '''

put DB details in db/dbconf.yml (copied from db/dbconf.EXAMPLE) config/prod.json (copied from config/local.json)
