nyx - Imageboard

A simple, dependency-free image board.

Requirements

• HTTPS Capable Host
• Being able to compile and run a go binary
• Disk Space

Installation

Simply go get the source code or compile it otherwise, dependencies are included.

Usage

By default nyx works in volatile-mode, all changes are only stored in memory and default credentials are setup in the database.

To overwrite these defaults, simply create the file config.yml or specify another file via the -config flag.

Configuration

The configuration file is written in YAML.

The following is a list of options available;

• disable_security - Disabled some HTTPS only options for cookies or redirects
• secret - Secret used for User Login, CSRF and Session Management, default is changeme
• listen_on - Defaults to :8080, specifies on which port the HTTP server is launched. Nyx will not utilize this value otherwise so proxying is safe.
• hosts - A whitelists of hostnames that are allowed to be used. Nyx uses hostnames to differentiate several board collections.
• db.file - File to use for data storage, defaults to :memory: which means in-memory storage
• site.title - Site Title
• site.description - Site Description
