You can run the project locally:
yarnSERVER_HOSTNAME=your-domain.com yarn dev
This runs the project usingts-node. Note that you need to have a public DNSfor the project to work; you can use e.g.ngrok orlocalhost.run for this.
Running the project in dev mode is not recommended for production, as it takes alot more memory and yields in longer startup time. You can run the project inproduciton mode by building it first:
yarn buildyart start
This compiles the project tobuild/ folder usingtsc and runs the built app.
This project is deployed automatically when pushed tomaster branch usinggh-actions.
This project tries to achieve:
- Following any RSS feed directly from Mastodon
- No login, no registration, no ads
- Being a super simple ActivityPub server
This project uses environment variables for configuration. The followingenvironment variables are available:
Required:true
Needed so that the server knows what domain it's running on.
Default:./database.db
This project uses SQLite as a database; it's the simplest sane option forsingle-server fly.io persistence. You can specify the filename of the databasehere.
