MyShed

MyShed is a marriage of YCombinator's HackerNews site and Facebook written in Python.

Setup

Download the source code:

$ git clone https://git.catvibers.me/videotoaster/myshed.git
$ cd myshed

Create the SQLite3 database:

$ sqlite3 MyShed.db
sqlite> CREATE TABLE users(name, password, bio, credate, friends, avatar, ismod)
sqlite> CREATE TABLE friendships(friend1, friend2, accepted)
sqlite> CREATE TABLE posts(poster, date, replyto, subject, content, id)
sqlite> .quit

Create user accounts for you and your friends:

$ python3
>>> import toolshed
>>> toolshed.createuser("Username", "Password", True) # True if mod, False if not
>>> exit()

Now you can start MyShed like this:

$ python3 myshed.py

The only problem is that it strictly runs on 127.0.0.1, port 1090. You will need to set up Apache 2 to reverse proxy it to the internet. Of course, you can use Nginx for this too, if you know what you're doing, but this is how I did it on Debian.

$ sudo apt install apache2
$ sudo a2enmod proxy
$ sudo (editor) /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf

You should make the file look like this:

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName [domain name you want myshed to run on]

        ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost

        ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:1090/
        ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:1090/
        ErrorDocument 503 "<pre>MyShed is unavailable at this time.</pre>"

        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/shed-error.log
        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/shed-access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

After this, restart Apache 2:

$ sudo systemctl restart apache2

and you should be able to log into your MyShed account on the domain you specified in your Apache 2 configuration file.
