Private notebook back end and docker images

There are three kind of backend

• Go backend, which can edit existing noted
• PHP backend, which can edit existing noted
• PHP backend, privatebin which is unmodifiable. (only client side configuration is sufficient)

Currently we have Go backend and PHP privatebin backend dockers.

End user note

Custom Backend Support Edit Exiting Note

#mkdir notes; chmod a+w notes
docker run --memory=6m --rm -p 18080:8080 -v $PWD/notes:/notes ghcr.io/privapps/notebook:v0.0.3

After you finish your note for the first version, go to Settings => Hosted:Editable then register and generate a Symmetric Key.

Save the new generated link and you can update the exiting node later.

To see detail information about go executable command, see go

Binaries can be found at tags area. And you might use different configuration. See php/config.json and config.json
