# <img src="src/public/assets/logo.png" height="32px" alt="" /> Drift
|
|
|
|
> **Note:** This branch is where all work is being done to refactor to the Next.js 13 app directory and React Server Components.
|
|
|
|
Drift is a self-hostable Gist clone. It's in beta, but is completely functional.
|
|
|
|
You can try a demo at https://drift.lol. The demo is built on main but has no database, so files and accounts can be wiped at any time.
|
|
|
|
If you want to contribute, need support, or want to stay updated, you can join the IRC channel at #drift on irc.libera.chat or [reach me on twitter](https://twitter.com/Max_Leiter). If you don't have an IRC client yet, you can use a webclient [here](https://demo.thelounge.chat/#/connect?join=%23drift&nick=drift-user&realname=Drift%20User).
|
|
|
|
Drift is built with Next.js 13, React Server Components, [shadcn/ui](https://github.com/shadcn/ui), and [Prisma](https://prisma.io/).

## Setup
|
|
|
|
### Development
|
|
|
|
In the root directory, run `pnpm i`. If you need `pnpm`, you can download it [here](https://pnpm.io/installation).
|
|
You can run `pnpm dev` in `client` for file watching and live reloading.
|
|
|
|
To work with [prisma](prisma.io/), you can use `pnpm prisma` or `pnpm exec prisma` to interact with the database.
|
|
|
|
### Production
|
|
|
|
`pnpm build` will produce production code. `pnpm start` will start the Next.js server.
|
|
|
|
### Environment Variables
|
|
|
|
You can change these to your liking.
|
|
|
|
`.env`:
|
|
|
|
- `DRIFT_URL`: the URL of the drift instance.
|
|
- `DATABASE_URL`: the URL to connect to your postgres instance. For example, `postgresql://user:password@localhost:5432/drift`.
|
|
- `WELCOME_CONTENT`: a markdown string that's rendered on the home page
|
|
- `WELCOME_TITLE`: the file title for the post on the homepage.
|
|
- `ENABLE_ADMIN`: the first account created is an administrator account
|
|
- `REGISTRATION_PASSWORD`: the password required to register an account. If not set, no password is required.
|
|
- `NODE_ENV`: defaults to development, can be `production`
|
|
|
|
#### Auth environment variables
|
|
|
|
**Note:** Only credential auth currently supports the registration password, so if you want to secure registration, you must use only credential auth.
|
|
|
|
- `GITHUB_CLIENT_ID`: the client ID for GitHub OAuth.
|
|
- `GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET`: the client secret for GitHub OAuth.
|
|
- `NEXTAUTH_URL`: the URL of the drift instance. Not required if hosting on Vercel.
|
|
- `CREDENTIAL_AUTH`: whether to allow username/password authentication. Defaults to `true`.
|
|
|
|
## Running with pm2
|
|
|
|
It's easy to start Drift using [pm2](https://pm2.keymetrics.io/).
|
|
First, add the `.env` file with your values (see the above section for the required options).
|
|
|
|
Then, use the following command to start the server:
|
|
|
|
- `pnpm build && pm2 start pnpm --name drift --interpreter bash -- start`
|
|
|
|
Refer to pm2's docs or `pm2 help` for more information.

## Running with Docker
|
|
|
|
## Running with systemd
|
|
|
|
_**NOTE:** We assume that you know how to enable user lingering if you don't want to use the systemd unit as root_
|
|
|
|
- As root
|
|
- Place the following systemd unit in ___/etc/systemd/system___ and name it _drift.service_
|
|
- Replace any occurrence of ___`$USERNAME`___ with the shell username of the user that will be running the Drift server
|
|
|
|
```
