Refactor source strategies to remove the `canonical_url` method. `canonical_url` returned the URL that should be used as the source of the post after upload. Now we simply use `Source::URL#page_url` to determine the source after upload. If the source is an image URL that is convertible to a page URL, then the image URL is used as the source. If the source is an image URL that is not convertible to a page URL, then the page URL is used as the source. This simplifies source strategies so that all they have to care about is implementing the `Source::URL#page_url` and `Sources::Strategies#page_url` methods, and the preferred source will be chosen for posts automatically.
Quickstart
Run this to start a basic Danbooru instance:
curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/danbooru/danbooru/master/bin/danbooru | sh
This will install Docker Compose and use it to start Danbooru. When it's done, Danbooru will be running at http://localhost:3000.
Alternatively, if you already have Docker Compose installed, you can just do:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/danbooru/danbooru/master/docker-compose.yaml
docker-compose up
Manual Installation
Follow the INSTALL.debian script to install Danbooru.
The INSTALL.debian script is written for Debian, but can be adapted for other distributions. Danbooru has been successfully installed on Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, and OS X. It is recommended that you use an Ubuntu-based system since Ubuntu is what is used in development and production.
See here for a guide on how set up Danbooru inside a virtual machine.
For best performance, you will need at least 256MB of RAM for PostgreSQL and Rails. The memory requirement will grow as your database gets bigger.
In production, Danbooru uses PostgreSQL 10.18, but any release later than this should work.
Troubleshooting
If your setup is not working, here are the steps I usually recommend to people:
-
Test the database. Make sure you can connect to it using
psql. Make sure the tables exist. If this fails, you need to work on correctly installing PostgreSQL, importing the initial schema, and running the migrations. -
Test the Rails database connection by using
bin/rails console. RunPost.countto make sure Rails can connect to the database. If this fails, you need to make sure your Danbooru configuration files are correct. -
Test Nginx to make sure it's working correctly. You may need to debug your Nginx configuration file.
-
Check all log files.
