Post::Text

A textboard written in Perl

Installing locally

Install dependencies:

cpanm --installdeps .

Running locally

Create a config file:

cp example_post_text.conf post_text.conf

This file right now just contains a Perl hash reference. Someday it should be YAML or XML or something better suited.

Run it in development mode:

morbo -w assets/css/ -w lib/ -w migrations/ -w t/ -w templates/ PostText.pl

Now try requesting http://localhost:3000

Testing

Run the tests locally (against development environment):

prove -l

TODOs

1. Bump button
2. CSS
3. Configure perlcritic

Crazy future ideas

(Lord knows there's TODOs I could be working on...)

1. CAPTCHA with Lingua::EN::Inflexion
2. Return a text response instead of HTML if a .txt extension is requested
3. Post thread via SMS (twil.io??)
4. Implement bcrypt
