throat 0.0.0

Open source link aggregator

Throat

https://phuks.co/

A phoxy link and discussion aggregator with snek (python3)

Dependencies:

• A database server, MySQL, MariaDB and Postres have been tested. Sqlite should work for messing locally
• Redis
• Python >= 3.7
• A recent node/npm
• libmagic and gobject

Setup:

We recommend using a virtualenv or Pyenv

1. Install Python dependencies with pip install -r requirements.txt
2. Install Node dependencies with npm install
3. Build the bundles with npm run build
4. Copy example.config.yml to config.yml and edit it
5. Set up the database by executing ./scripts/migrate.py

And you're done! You can run a test server by executing ./throat.py. For production instances we recommend setting up gunicorn

Develop on Docker

If you prefer to develop on docker

• The provided Docker resources only support Postgres
• You still must copy example.config.yaml to config.yaml and make any changes you want
• In addition, configs are overridden by environment variables set in docker-compose.yml which reference the redis and postgres services created by docker-compose.

make up will bring the containerized site up and mount your current working directory inside the container for dev. It also runs the migrations on start-up. make down will spin down the containerized services.

To add an admin user to a running docker-compose application: docker exec throat_throat_1 python3 scripts/admins.py --add {{username}}

If Wheezy templates are not automatically reloading in docker between changes, try docker restart throat_throat_1.

Docker Deployments

Gunicorn

CMD [ "gunicorn", \
      "-w", "4", \
      "-k", "geventwebsocket.gunicorn.workers.GeventWebSocketWorker", \
      "-b", "0.0.0.0:5000", \
      "throat:app" ]

Authenticating with a Keycloak server

Optionally, user authentication can be done using a Keycloak server. You will need to create a realm for the users on the server, as well as Keycloak clients with appropriate permissions. See doc/keycloak.org for instructions.

Tests

Python tests

1. Python, redis, libmagic and gobject are required, but node and postgres are not.
2. Install dependencies with pip install -r requirements.txt
3. Install the test dependencies with pip install -r requirements-test.txt
4. Run the tests with python -m pytest
5. The tests are not affected by your configuration in config.yaml. If you wish to run the tests against production database or authentication servers (instead of the defaults, which are sqlite and local authentication), you may put configuration settings in test_config.yaml and run the tests with TEST_CONFIG=test_config.yaml python -m pytest
