Spee.ch is a web app that reads and publishes images and videos to and from the [LBRY](https://lbry.io/) blockchain.

You can create your own custom version of spee.ch by installing this code base and then creating your own custom components and styles to override the defaults. (More details/guide on how to do that coming soon.)
## Quickstart ## Technology Overview
Spee.ch is a react web app that depends on MySQL for local content, and on two other lbry technologies:
* [chainquery](https://github.com/lbryio/chainquery) - a normalized database of the blockchain data. We've provided credentials to use a public chainquery service. You can also install it on your own server to avoid being affected by the commons.
* [lbrynet](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry) - a daemon that handles your wallet and transactions.
### Ubuntu ## Installation
[Ubuntu VPS Setup](./docs/ubuntu16vpspersonal.md)
_Note: This is our new setup. For our old setup see the [fullstart guide](./fullstart.md)._ ### Ubuntu Step by Step
[Ubuntu Install Guide](./docs/ubuntuinstall.md)
#### System Dependencies: ### Quickstart Overview
* [node](https://nodejs.org)
#### Get some information ready:
* mysqlusername
* mysqlpassword
* domainname or 'http://localhost'
* speechport = 3000
#### Install and Set Up System Dependencies:
* [NodeJS](https://nodejs.org)
* [MySQL](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/installing.html) * [MySQL](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/installing.html)

```
mysql> `ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'yourpassword';`
```
* [lbrynet](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry) daemon
* run this as a service exposing ports 3333 and 4444

* Your login info ready
* Domain name with @ and www pointed at your VPS IP
* alternatively, specify http://localhost
* Ability to send 5+ LBRY credits to an address
* Noncommercial use
* _(configuration examples for nginx and certbot are included as an alternative)_
## You'll be installing:
* MySQL DB

* Lbrynet DAEMON started on ports 3333 and 4444
# 1. Update OS and install packages
## OS
### Secure your server by creating a non-root sudoer.
As root# _create user and add to sudo group_
```
adduser username
usermod -aG sudo username
su - username
```
As username: _paste public key in authorized_keys_
```
`cd`
`mkdir .ssh`
`nano ~/.ssh/authorized_keys`
```
### Prep
Log in as username@domainname or username@ip_address
`sudo apt-get update -y`
`ulimit -n 8192`
`wget -qO- https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_8.x | sudo -E bash -`
## Git, Curl, Tmux, Unzip, ffmpeg, Node
`sudo apt-get install git curl tmux unzip ffmpeg nodejs -y`
## Clone speech either from your own fork, or from the lbryio/spee.ch repo.
### For Developers or those with their own forked repo
`git clone -b master https://github.com/lbryio/spee.ch`
SSH:
`git clone git@github.com:{{youraccount}}/spee.ch`
HTTPS:
`git clone https://github.com/{{youraccount}}/spee.ch.git`
### For Publishers and Content creators
`git clone -b release https://github.com/lbryio/spee.ch`
### Prepare the scripts
`chmod 750 -R ~/spee.ch/docs/setup`
# 2 Secure the UFW firewall
## UFW
`sudo ~/spee.ch/docs/setup/scripts/firewall.sh`
# 3 Install Caddy to handle https and reverse proxy
## Get Caddy
`curl https://getcaddy.com | sudo bash -s personal`
## Set up Caddy reverse proxy and ssl
`sudo mkdir -p /opt/caddy/logs/`
`sudo mkdir -p /opt/caddy/store/`
`cp ~/spee.ch/docs/setup/conf/caddy/Caddyfile.template ~/spee.ch/docs/setup/conf/caddy/Caddyfile`
`nano ~/spee.ch/docs/setup/conf/caddy/Caddyfile`
( Change {{EXAMPLE.COM}} to YOURDOMAIN.COM )
`sudo cp ~/spee.ch/docs/setup/conf/caddy/Caddyfile /opt/caddy/`
## Set up Caddy to run as systemd service
`sudo cp ~/spee.ch/docs/setup/conf/caddy/caddy.service /etc/systemd/system/caddy.service`
`sudo chmod 644 /etc/systemd/system/caddy.service`
`sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /opt/caddy/`
`sudo setcap 'cap_net_bind_service=+ep' /usr/local/bin/caddy`
`sudo systemctl daemon-reload`
`sudo systemctl start caddy`
`sudo systemctl status caddy`
`q` exits
At this point, navigating to yourdomain.com should give you a 502 bad gateway error. That's good!
# 4 Set up MySQL
## Install MySQL
`sudo apt-get install mysql-server -y`
( enter blank password each time if prompted)
`sudo systemctl status mysql` (q to exit)
## Secure Setup
`sudo mysql_secure_installation`
* Password abcd1234
* No to password validation
* Y to all other options
## Login to mysql from root to complete setup:
`sudo mysql` to enter mysql> console
mysql>
`ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'abcd1234';`
mysql>
`FLUSH PRIVILEGES;`
`Control+D` to exit
Verify:
`mysql -u root -p` and then entering your password abcd1234 should give you the mysql> shell
# 5 Get Lbrynet Daemon
## Start tmux
This just allows you to run multiple things in different sessions. Useful for manually starting daemons and watching its console logs.
`tmux`
* `Ctrl+b`, then `d` detaches leaving session running.
* `tmux`, reenters tmux, then
* `Ctrl+b`, `(` goes back to through sessions
## Get the daemon
`wget -O ~/latest_daemon.zip https://lbry.io/get/lbrynet.linux.zip`
`unzip -o -u ~/latest_daemon.zip`
## Start the daemon
`./lbrynet start`
## Detatch tmux session
* `Control + b`, then `d` to leave lbrynet daemon running and exit the session
`tmux` if you want to get back into tmux
`Control+b`, then `)` while in tmux session to cycle back to your lbrynet session to see output
## Display wallet address to which to send 5+ LBC.
_note: These commands work when `./lbrynet start` is already running in another tmux session_
`./lbrynet commands` to check out the current commands
`./lbrynet address_list` to get your wallet address
`Ctrl + Shift + C` after highlighting an address to copy.
Use a LBRY app or daemon to send LBC to the address. Sending LBC may take a few seconds or longer.
`./lbrynet account_balance` to check your balance after you've sent LBC.
## Optional/Production: Set up lbrynet to run as a systemd service
`//coming soon`
# 6 Set up spee.ch
## Build it
`cd spee.ch`
~/spee.ch:
`npm install`
`cp ~/spee.ch/docs/setup/conf/speech/chainqueryConfig.json ~/spee.ch/site/config/chainqueryConfig.json`
`npm run configure` (once your wallet balance has cleared)
* Database: lbry
* Username: root
* Password: abcd1234
* Port: 3000
* Site Title: Your Site Name
* Enter your site's domain name: https://freezepeach.fun (this must include 'https://')
* Enter a directory where uploads should be stored: (/home/lbry/Uploads)
`npm run start`
## Try it
Navigate to yourdomain.fun!
# 7 Production
## pm2 to keep your speech app running
```
npm install -g pm2
```
### 7 Maintenance Proceedures
#### Change daemon
* backup wallet (private keys!) to a safe place
* wget daemon from https://github.com/lbryio/lbry/releases
* wget -O ~/your_name_daemon.zip https://your_copied_file_path.zip
* rm ./lbrynet
* unzip -o -u ~/your_name_daemon.zip
