jschan

Anonymous imageboard. A type of BBS or forum software. Still in development, so beware if attempting to run a public instance. Demo site running at https://fatpeople.lol

Goals

  • Oldschool imageboard look
  • Works on TOR with javascript disabled (maybe the name is a bit ironic)
  • Leverage nginx to serve static files and handle GeoIP lookups

Features

  • Post styling (markdown-esque)
  • Quote linking and replies
  • Multiple files per post
  • User created boards ala infinity
  • Captcha and basic antispam
  • Read-only JSON api
  • Public modlogs
  • Multi-select posts for moderation actions/reports
  • Fully functional for users with javascript disabled

Todo

  • Staff post editing/moving/thread merging
  • IP range bans + IP ban history
  • Configuration editor
  • Overboard/multiboard/meta boards
  • Boards list and search page
  • User created board custom pages
  • File URL uploads

Setup

Please note:

  • These are not step-by-step or complete instructions.
  • For debian.
Requirements
  • Linux
  • Node.js (to run the app)
  • MongoDB (database, duh)
  • Redis (sessions, queue, locks and caching)
  • Nginx (handle https, serve static content, GeoIP lookup)
  • Certbot/letsencrypt (for https cert)
  • Imagemagick (thumbnailing images)
  • Ffmpeg (thumbnailing videos)
  • Bcrypt (account password hashes)

Install some dependencies. You may need to add some sources.

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install bcrypt nginx ffmpeg imagemagick

Install and configure auth for mongodb. This is to avoid out of date verisons in debian repos.

Install and configure Redis.

Install nodejs. You can use node version manager (nvm) to help with this. Once you have nvm, install the LTS version of nodejs (currently 10.x).

$ nvm install --lts

Configure nginx. Delete the default nginx config, then modify the example config and put it in the correct folder. Next, get https with a certificate generated from letsencrypt.

Now clone the repo, browse to the folder and set some things up.

# in repo directory
$ nano configs/main.json #edit config with appropriate data
$ npm i
$ npm i -g gulp pm2
$ gulp
$ npm run-script setup
$ npm run-script start #this will start the backend
$ pm2 list #list running apps
$ pm2 logs #see logs
