A self-hosted, single-user, ActivityPub powered microblog.
**Still in early development.** ## Features - Implements a basic [ActivityPub](https://activitypub.rocks/) server (with federation) - Compatible with [Mastodon](https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon) and others (Pleroma, Hubzilla...) - Also implements a remote follow compatible with Mastodon instances - Exposes your outbox as a basic microblog - Implements [IndieAuth](https://indieauth.spec.indieweb.org/) endpoints (authorization and token endpoint) - U2F support - You can use your ActivityPub identity to login to other websites/app - Admin UI with notifications and the stream of people you follow - Allows you to attach files to your notes - Privacy-aware image upload endpoint that strip EXIF meta data before storing the file - No JavaScript, that's it, even the admin UI is pure HTML/CSS - Easy to customize (the theme is written Sass) - Microformats aware (exports `h-feed`, `h-entry`, `h-cards`, ...) - Exports RSS/Atom feeds - Comes with a tiny HTTP API to help posting new content and performing basic actions - Easy to "cache" (the external/public-facing microblog part) - With a good setup, cached content can be served most of the time - You can setup a "purge" hook to let you invalidate cache when the microblog was updated - Deployable with Docker ## Running your instance ### Installation ```shell $ git clone $ make css $ cp -r config/me.sample.yml config/me.yml ``` ### Configuration ```shell $ make password ``` ### Deployment ```shell $ docker-compose up -d ``` ## Development The most convenient way to hack on microblog.pub is to run the server locally, and run ```shell # One-time setup $ pip install -r requirements.txt # Start the Celery worker, RabbitMQ and MongoDB $ docker-compose -f docker-compose-dev.yml up -d # Run the server locally $ MICROBLOGPUB_DEBUG=1 FLASK_APP=app.py flask run -p 5005 --with-threads ``` ## Contributions PRs are welcome, please open an issue to start a discussion before your start any work.
