Clippable
A small self hostable alternative to streamable. Built with Rocket.rs
Testing
A docker container is provided:
docker pull registry.gitlab.com/shockrah/clippable:latest
Below is the suggested way test things out
docker run --rm -p 8482:8482 -it -v /path/to/clips:/media/clips -v /path/to/thumbnails:/media/thumbnails
NOTE: Without proper thumbnails you get the "404" gif everywhere but the videos will still be there.
Admin Setup/Configuration
There are a few environment variables that can be configured:
-
CLIPS_DIR: default =/media/clips -
THUMBS_DIR: default =/media/thumbnails
Building the backend
Currently the project relies on Rust Nightly to build due to a requirement in Rocket however as that framework moves to Rust Stable so to will this project.
Building frontend javascript
Currently the website's javascript is written in typescript then compiled to
Javascript. The output directory is /api/static/js/ which means mkdir -p api/static/js
must be ran in order to ensure that output directory is present and compilation
succeeds. There are no dependencies and is only written in typescript to
enforce some level of consistency among contributor code.
