The missing open source blog system on Ruby on Rails 6.1.
WBlog is open source blog which built for mobile first, it's licenced on MIT, use it for free!
New: WBlog is using Ruby on Rails 6.1 now.
Characteristic:
- Modern clean reading feelings
- Markdown support, give nice formatted articles
- Mobile first, responsive page for iPhone, iPad, iMac.
- Independent comment system, subscribe system, picture manage system
A real example comes from my own blog( Chinese ): https://yafeilee.com
Some screenshots
- Ruby ( >= 3.0.1 )
- 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:
- Check dependencies
ruby -v
# 3.0.1
postgres --version
# 9.x.x
- Clone it
git clone git@github.com:windy/wblog.git
cd wblog
- 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
- Start it
rails s
Open browser with http://localhost:3000
If there is any error found, please check your database's user and password.
- 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.
