Forget is a post deleting service for Twitter and Mastodon. It lives at
<https://forget.codl.fr>.
## Running your own
### Requirements
* Postgresql
* Redis
* Python 3.6+
* Node.js 10+
* NPM
### Set up venv
Setting up a venv will isolate Forget from your system's libraries and allow you to install
dependencies locally as a normal user. It's not necessary but it is recommended!
```
$ python -m venv venv
$ source venv/bin/activate
```
If you're using `zsh` or `fish` as a shell, substitute `venv/bin/activate` with
`venv/bin/activate.zsh` or `venv/bin/activate.fish`, respectively.
You will need to "activate" the venv in every new terminal before you can use
pip or any python tools included in dependencies (honcho, flask...)
### Download and install dependencies
```
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
$ npm install
```
Wow!! Exciting
### Create and complete config file
Gotta set up those, paths, and stuff.
```
$ cp config.example.py config.py
$ $EDITOR config.py
```
### Set up database schema
If you haven't started postgresql yet now would be a great time to do that.
```
$ createdb forget # if you havent created the DB yet
$ env FLASK_APP=forget.py flask db upgrade
```
### Build static assets
Gonna do it...!
```
$ doit
```
Done did it.
### Running
The included `Procfile` will run the app server and the background worker.
`honcho`, a `Procfile` runner, is included as a dependency:
```
$ honcho start
```
The application server will listen on `http://127.0.0.1:42157`.
You'll want to use your favourite web server to proxy traffic to it.
<small>This author suggests Caddy.</small>
### Development
For development, you may want to use `Procfile.dev`, which starts flask in
debug mode and rebuilds the static assets automatically when they change
```
$ honcho -f Procfile.dev start
```
Or you could just look at `Procfile.dev` and run those things manually. It's up
to you.
You can run the (currently very incomplete) test suite by running `pytest`.
You'll need redis installed on your development machine, a temporary redis
server will be started and shut down automatically by the test suite.
