**Content Delivery**. Want to write some CSS/JS that you want to load somewhere? No problem. Just use the extension `/raw` with optional versioning (e.g. `/raw?version=1`). So you if you make a javascript file, `cowyo.com/myscript.js`, then you can include your script using:
```html
<script src="https://cowyo.com/myscript.js/raw"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cowyo.com/mystyle.css/raw">
```
<br>
**Content Delivery**. Want use a script on your own domain? Just use the extension `/raw` with optional versioning (e.g. `/raw?version=1`). `cowyo` will serve these files with a wildcard Access-Control-Allow-Origin so they will work anywhere. Check out a live example [on this JSFiddle](https://jsfiddle.net/g87w7kt0/).
**Keyboard Shortcuts**. Quickly transition between Edit/View/List by using `Ctl+Shift+E` to Edit, `Ctl+Shift+Z` to View, and `Ctl+Shift+L` to Listify.

# Install
First [install Go](https://golang.org/doc/install). Then continue.
## To access locally...
Then, if you want to host on your local network just do:
If you haven't done so, first [install Go](https://golang.org/doc/install).
```
git clone https://github.com/schollz/cowyo.git
cd cowyo
make
./cowyo -p :8001 LOCALIPADDRESS
$ git clone https://github.com/schollz/cowyo.git
$ cd cowyo
$ go get ./...
$ go build
$ ./cowyo
--------------------------
cowyo (version Y) is up and running on http://SOMEADDRESS:8003
Admin key: VRSgtuVpkrwtWrfphsooOYeErzdbVHHqecMcqcbkLFNFNPwakH
--------------------------
```
and then goto the address `http://LOCALIPADDRESS:8001/`
## To access from anywhere...
For this you need to forward port 80 and [get a DNS for your external address](https://www.duckdns.org/). I recommend using `NGINX` as middleware, as it will do caching of the static files for you.
```bash
sudo apt-get install nginx
```
There is an example `NGINX` block in `install/`. If you want to use SSL instead, follow the instructions in `letsencrypt/README.md`. To automatically install, on Raspberry Pi / Ubuntu / Debian system use:
```
git clone https://github.com/schollz/cowyo.git
cd cowyo
nano Makefile <--- EDIT this Makefile to include YOUR EXTERNAL ADDRESS
make && sudo make install
```
Now the program starts and stops with
```
sudo /etc/init.d/cowyo start|stop|restart
```
Edit your crontab (`sudo crontab -e`) to start on boot:
```
@reboot /etc/init.d/cowyo start
```
# Usage
```
$ cowyo --help
cowyo: A Websocket Wiki and Kind Of A List Application
run this to start the server and then visit localhost at the port you specify
(see parameters).
Example: 'cowyo localhost'
Example: 'cowyo -p :8080 localhost:8080'
Example: 'cowyo -db /var/lib/cowyo/db.bolt localhost:8003'
Example: 'cowyo -p :8080 -crt ssl/server.crt -key ssl/server.key localhost:8080'
Options:
-a string
key to access admin priveleges (default no admin priveleges)
-crt string
location of ssl crt
-db string
location of database file (default "/home/mu/cowyo/data.db")
-httptest.serve string
if non-empty, httptest.NewServer serves on this address and blocks
-key string
location of ssl key
-p string
port to bind (default ":8003")
```
If you set the admin flag, `-a` you can access a list of all the current files by going to `/ls/WhateverYouSetTheFlagTo`.
Now open your browser to `http://SOMEADDRESS:8003` to see your cowyo! For more information type `./cowyo --help`.
