Acceptance Criteria:

• Post short messages, 250 char limit, and see all messages after posting.
• Random, but unique usernames.
• Track all messages in database for 10 days, but clear any after that.

Extra credit:

• Bad words filter to change an array of bad words to be censored.
• Applications should have a config file & logging system.
• Application should be able to limit connected users.

First off, you'll need a running postgresql, nginx, and python3! I leave configuring those as an exercise for the user. You can configure the site http://chat.local by using the nginx conf file at ./conf/chat.local

Make ./configure executable, then run it, it just creates the CONFIG file.

sudo chmod ug x ./configure
./configure

Modify CONFIG as suits you.

The app will createdb ca to create a new database and dump in the blank tables, via make install or make install-db.

make
make install

make run

http://chat.local/

Still TODO:

• Pull chats from an api database
• Put/post chats into api.
• Randomized username for api.

You can run the standard

./configure
make
make install

Above to get the latest version of the code and run it.
