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/ \
    script/post_text

Now try requesting http://localhost:3000

Testing

Run the tests locally (against development environment):

prove -l

TODOs

  1. Fix the x_per_page attributes (should use has)
  2. s/Authen::Passphrase::BlowfishCrypt/Crypt::Passphrase/g
  3. Need to pass config to the Moderator model for bcrypt cost
  4. Re-write bcrypt command to use Authen::Passphrase::BlowfishCrypt
  5. Some sort of admin/moderator login and view
  6. Implement tripcodes
  7. CSS

Crazy future ideas

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

  1. Support at least some Markdown, specifically the code blocks
  2. RSS feed!!
  3. Return a text response instead of HTML if a .txt extension is requested (JSON?)
  4. Post thread via SMS (twil.io??)
  5. Option to remark without bumping?
