HORKRUXES

A decentralized social network based on a distributed authentication system.

Installation

Unlike Mastodont, the horkrux installation on a linux server is DEAD SIMPLE.

Basic installation, 30s chrono

mkdir horkruxes && cd horkruxes
wget https://github.com/horkruxes/hkxserver/releases/latest/download/hkxserver_linux_amd64.tar.gz
tar -xzvf horkruxes_linux_amd64.tar.gz #insert version or use auto-completion
./horkruxes version
./horkruxes

HTTPS with nginx installed

Copy this to /etc/nginx/sites-available/horkruxes

server {
    server_name your.server.name; # Use your domain name
    location / {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:80; # You can change the port in hkxconfig.toml
    }
}

Then run

sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/horkruxes /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/horkruxes
sudo systemctl restart nginx
sudo certbot --nginx #For HTTPS

And that's all folks

What is signed ?

A list of bytes generated from strings with different encodings, in this order:

• The message (utf-8)
• The public key (base64)
• The Displayed Name (utf-8)

Development

I like to use air to run my projects.

go generate ./... # Generates Tailwind styles
ENV=production go generate ./... # Optimize for production
go run .
