## Features
|
|
- Lightweight - for both you and the instance host
|
|
- No JavaScript - pure HTML and CSS goodness
|
|
- No requests made to Micro$oft - they won't even know you made a request!
|
|
- Open source - for peer review & trustworthiness
|
|
- Save bandwidth - no JavaScript/tracking bloat loaded!
|
|
|
|
## Instances
|
|
### Difference between branches
|
|
The ``master`` branch runs on the master branch of GotHub. This means that the instance is running a stable, tested version of GotHub that doesn't get updated as much as ``dev``. Doesn't mean they're not bad though!
|
|
|
|
``dev`` instances run on the dev branch of GotHub. This might mean they are more up-to-date than other instances, but at the same time, they might not be (instance admin might not always update their instance, no auto-updates etc.). You can get the latest and greatest straight out of Git, but you could meet on bugs and other nasty things.

## Setup
|
|
### Docker
|
|
We recommend Docker as it is easy to update GotHub that way and it is easy to setup.
|
|
[Packages page](https://codeberg.org/gothub/-/packages/container/gothub/latest)
|
|
```docker
|
|
docker run -d -p 3000:3000 --name gothub codeberg.org/gothub/gothub
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you are using Portainer or Podman, you know how to create the GotHub container.
|
|
|
|
### Manual
|
|
You will need an installation of Go 1.19+ installed on your system.
|
|
|
|
We recommend setting the `GO_TELEMETRY` environment variable to `off`. In the future, the Go CLI will send telemetry to Google, which you might not want.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://codeberg.org/gothub/gothub.git
|
|
cd gothub
|
|
go build -o gothub
|
|
./gothub serve
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you don't want to use port 3000 for GotHub, set the GOTHUB_PORT environment variable to the port you want to use.
|
|
|
|
If you want to be in the official instance list, you also need to fill these Instance Privacy environment variables:
|
|
```
|
|
GOTHUB_IP_LOGGED=true/false
|
|
GOTHUB_REQUEST_URL_LOGGED=true/false
|
|
GOTHUB_USER_AGENT_LOGGED=true/false
|
|
GOTHUB_DIAGNOSTIC_INFO_LOGGED=true/false
|
|
GOTHUB_INSTANCE_PRIVACY_POLICY=""
|
|
GOTHUB_INSTANCE_COUNTRY=""
|
|
GOTHUB_INSTANCE_PROVIDER=""
|
|
GOTHUB_INSTANCE_CLOUDFLARE=true/false
|
|
```
|
|
### Web server configuration (Caddy)
|
|
We recommend Caddy for the web server, as it provides automatic HTTPS, HTTP/3 and is easy to setup.
|
|
```caddyfile
|
|
gothub.example.com {
|
|
reverse_proxy localhost:(the port for GotHub)
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
## Scraping
|
|
Other than for the explore page, gothub uses scraping in order to retrieve the information.
|
|
|
|
This makes it hard for gothub to get ratelimited.
|
|
|
|
You can also set the GOTHUB_USER_AGENT envvar in order to set the user agent with which GotHub makes requests to Github.
|
|
|
|
By default, we use the user agent of Chrome 110 on Windows 10.
|
|
|
|
## Funding
|
|
|
|
Our domain [gothub.app](https://gothub.app) is funded by the [Project Segfault](https://projectsegfau.lt) team, which is our only expense other than blood, sweat and tears. So, if you'd like to donate to GotHub, you can donate it to your favourite instance host or [Project Segfault](https://projectsegfau.lt/donate).
