# patchfoo
Plain SSB web UI. Uses HTML forms instead of client-side JS. Designed for use on low-power and low-resource computers.
## Goals
- Support all message schemas commonly used in the main SSB network.
- Make efficient use of screen space, memory, and CPU.
- Run well in [dillo](http://dillo.org/) browser.
- Serve as a place for experimenting with new HTML-based SSB UIs.
## Features
- Render messages with author name and icons.
- Render core ssb message types, git-ssb message types, and raw messages.
- View public log, private log, user feeds, channels, and search.
- Paginate views bidirectionally.
- Compose, preview and publish public and private messages.
- *and more*
## Joining SSB with Patchfoo
Find [this guide](%VaSj08AbdhIa4itK4z8Z91G80o2h5OhRLCEEO6MhAcU=.sha256) [on github](https://github.com/noffle/sailing-patchfoo) or [on
SSB](http://git.scuttlebot.io/%25VaSj08AbdhIa4itK4z8Z91G80o2h5OhRLCEEO6MhAcU%3D.sha256).
## Requirements
- [ssb-server][]
- [ssb-npm][]
- [git-ssb][]
## Install
patchfoo can run either as a standalone process or as an ssb-server plugin.
Running as a ssb-server plugin is faster and uses less resources. But it requires you to run ssb-server from the command-line, or use a ssb-server distribution that allows installing ssb-server plugins.
Running as a standalone process can work while you are running a ssb-server distribution such as Patchwork, Patchbay, or Oasis. It also could potentially work with ssb-server implementations other than the Node.js one.
### Install as a standalone process
```sh
git clone ssb://%YAg1hicat+2GELjE2QJzDwlAWcx0ML+1sXEdsWwvdt8=.sha256 patchfoo
cd patchfoo
ssb-npm install
npm start
```
### Install as a ssb-server plugin
```sh
cd ~/.ssb/node_modules
git clone ssb://%YAg1hicat+2GELjE2QJzDwlAWcx0ML+1sXEdsWwvdt8=.sha256 patchfoo
cd patchfoo
ssb-npm install
node enable-plugin.js
```
## Install extras
To most effectively render things, patchfoo needs the `ssb-backlinks`
and `ssb-private` ssb-server plugins. If you are using a ssb-server distribution like Patchwork, Patchbay or Oasis's ssb-server, these are already included. If you are using ssb-server from the command-line, the plugins have to be installed separately:
```sh
sbot plugins.install ssb-backlinks
sbot plugins.install ssb-private
```
## Config
Pass config options with args
e.g. `npm start -- --patchfoo.port 8027` if running standalone,
or `sbot server --patchfoo.port 8027` if running as an sbot plugin.
To make config options persistent, set them in `~/.ssb/config`, e.g.:
```json
{
"patchfoo": {
"port": 8027,
"host": "::",
"filter": "all",
"showPrivates": true,
"previewVotes": true,
"voteBranches": false,
"ooo": true,
"nav": [
"new",
"public",
"private",
"mentions",
"peers",
"status",
"channels",
"tags",
"friends",
"search"
"live",
"compose",
"drafts",
"emojis",
"self",
"searchbox"
],
"dir": "patchfoo",
"scriptDir": "script",
"draftsDir": "drafts"
}
}
```
### Config options
- `port`: port for the server to listen on. default: `8027`
- `host`: host address for the server to listen on. default: `localhost`
- `base`: base url that the app is running at. default: `/`
- `blob_base`: base url for links to ssb blobs. default: same as `base`
- `img_base`: base url for blobs embedded as images. default: same as `base`
- `emoji_base`: base url for emoji images. default: same as `base`
- `encode_msgids`: whether to URL-encode message ids in local links. default: `true`
- `auth`: HTTP auth password. default: `null` (no password required)
- `allowAddresses`: Array of IP addresses allowed to connect. default: `null` (allow any to connect). Note if host is `localhost` then this setting is useless.
- `allowHosts`: Array of hostnames allowed that patchfoo may be connected at, or `*` to allow using any hostname. Default is to allow patchfoo's configured port, at patchfoo's configured host, `localhost`, `127.0.0.1` or `::1`. If hostname includes trailing colon without port, it means use patchfoo's server port. `*` for the port means allow connections at any port. If hostname begins with `.`, subdomains under it are allowed too.
- `trustedReferers`: Array of URL patterns allowed as base of HTTP Referers for POST & PUT requests to patchfoo, or `*` to allow any. Default is `http://` followed by patchfoo's host and port, or `localhost`, `127.0.0.1` or `[::1]` at patchfoo's port. Port may be wildcard (`*`) to allow any port, or blank (trailing `:`) for patchfoo's port. Subdomains can be allowed by beginning the hostname with a period (`.`). patchfoo subpaths which may contain arbitrary blob content are excluded from the set of allowed referers.
- `filter`: Filter setting. `"all"` to show all messages. `"invert"` to show messages that would be hidden by the default setting. Otherwise the default setting applies, which is so to only show messages authored or upvoted by yourself or by a feed that you you follow. Exceptions are that if you navigate to a user feed page, you will see messages authored by that feed, and if you navigate to a message page, you will see that message - regardless of the filter setting. The `filter` setting may also be specified per-request as a query string parameter.
- `showPrivates`: Whether or not to show private messages. Default is `true`. Overridden by `filter=all`.
- `previewVotes`: Whether to preview creating votes/likes/digs (`true`) or publish them immediately (`false`). default: `false`
- `previewContacts`: Whether to preview creating contact/(un)follow/block messages (`true`) or publish them immediately (`false`). default: `false`
- `voteBranches`: whether to publish vote messages with thread `branch` and `root` properties, and include `vote` messages in `branch` properties of a posts. default: `false`.
- `ooo`: if true, use `ssb-ooo` to try to fetch missing messages in threads. also can set per-request with query string `?ooo=1`. default: `false`
`codeInTextareas`: if `true`, render markdown code blocks in textareas. if `false`, render them in `pre` tags. default: `false`
- `nav`: array of nav links. Each item may be a string, object or special value. Special values are `"searchbox"` and `"self"`, which are the search field box, and link to the current feed id's page, respectively. Any other string is interpretted to be a link to the page of that name prefixed with a forward slash. An object may have properties `name` and `url`, and that will be interpretted as a link with given name and URL (with `toUrl` conversions applied). default is the list in the readme above.
- `dir`: name of directory in `~/.ssb/` to use for patchfoo things. default: `"patchfoo"`.
- `scriptDir: name of directory in patchfoo's directory (as set by `patchfoo.dir` config option above) to use for user scripts. default: `"script"`.
- `draftsDir: name of directory in patchfoo's directory (as set by `patchfoo.dir` config option above) to use for message draft data. default: `"drafts"`.
- `newLimit: limit of messages to show on `/new` page. Default: 500. Overridable with query string parameter `limit=...`.
- `dualMarkdownPreview`: Preview messages in composer in multiple SSB markdown implementations, `ssb-marked` and `ssb-markdown` >= 3. Overridable with query string parameter `dualMd=1`.
- `replyMentionFeeds`: Mention thread branch authors in "reply" property, like Patchwork. Default `true`.
## TODO
- Add more sophisticated private messages view.
- Count digs
- Show network status
- Add UI for using pub invites
