This adds a "Reader" section of the site for admins who want to enable
it for their instance. That means visitors can go to /read and see who
has publicly shared their writing. They can also follow all public posts
via RSS by going to /read/feed/. Writers on an instance with this
`local_timeline` setting enabled can publish to the timeline by going
into their blog settings and choosing the "Public" visibility setting.
The `local_timeline` feature is disabled by default, as is the Public
setting on writer blogs. Enabling it adds a "Reader" navigation item and
enables the reader endpoints. This feature will also consume more
memory, as public posts are cached in memory for 10 minutes.
These changes include code ported over from Read.Write.as, and thus
include some experimental features like filtering public posts by tags
and authors. These features aren't well-tested or complete.

This allows users to load a different configuration file instead of the
default config.ini. It works in combination with other configuration
actions, like --config and --create-config.
This enables automated user creation by running:
writefreely --create-admin username:password
It will fail if an admin (first user) already exists, which makes this
suitable for use on both for single- and multi-user instances.
Closes T544
A quick test with ApacheBench revealed that SQLite really can't handle
multiple concurrent requests with the default settings, due to a locked
database. This fixes that by following the suggestions here:
https://github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3#faq
Testing with ab -n 100 -c 5 http://localhost:8080/blog/post shows that
this fixes the issue. But we could improve performance by reducing
writes, like what's mentioned in T545.
Part of T529
Minimal changes, definitely WIP, to resolve:
- how to support dualstack when not using localhost?
- net/http package uses string, mentions IP address instead of bind,
need info.
This supports running the server on port 443, serving secure pages, with
automatic redirects from the insecure site. It also modifies the
configuration process to better guide users through configuring for
running behind a reverse proxy or as a standalone server.
This closes T537
This allows admin to edit these pages from the web, using Markdown. It
also dynamically loads information on those pages now, and makes loading
`pages` templates a little easier to find in the code / more explicit.
It requires this new schema change:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `appcontent` (
`id` varchar(36) NOT NULL,
`content` mediumtext CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL,
`updated` datetime NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;
This closes T533
