中文说明文档

Characteristic:

• Modern clean reading feelings

• Independent comment system, subscribe system, picture manage system

A real example comes from my own blog( Chinese ): https://yafeilee.com

• Postgresql ( >= 9.x )
• Nginx ( >= 1.4 )

• Responsive, iPhone, iPad, Notebook, PC, all are supported
• QR Code, Like button make your article easily sharing with your friends
• Inpendent comment system, subscribe system, that all belong to you
• Markdown supported, code highlight, especially for programmer, like you
• Personalize it, commercialize it, it all depends on you

Make it to the best Ruby on Rails Blog system in the world.

WBlog MUST run in Linux or OSX. I assume you are using OS X 10.

You can run it like a Ruby on Rails project as usual:

0. Check dependencies

ruby -v
# 3.0.1
postgres  --version
# 9.x.x

1. Clone it

git clone [email protected]:windy/wblog.git

cd wblog

2. Install dependencies & configure

gem install bundler
bundle install
cp config/application.yml.example config/application.yml
cp config/database.yml.example config/database.yml

Update application.yml & database.yml 's content as you need

3. Start it

rails s

Open browser with http://localhost:3000

If there is any error found, please check your database's user and password.

4. Post the first blog

visit: http://localhost:3000/admin, input your username and password configurated in application.yml. then, post a new article.

OK, That's all.

WBlog uses mina as automation deployment tool, uses puma as the Rack container.

WBlog recommends nginx as reverse proxy server.

It will be very fast.

Ruby on Rails project deployment is another topic, I would NOT talk it here.
