Remove the server side session storage and store all the session related data in the client side cookies. This decreases the exposure of the auth tokens. It also simplifies the installation process as bloat no longer requires write access to the filesystem. This is a breaking change, all the existing sessions will stop working.

Installation
|
|
|
|
1. Get the source
|
|
Get the source code by running
|
|
$ git clone https://git.freesoftwareextremist.com/bloat
|
|
You can also download the latest source tarball from the URL
|
|
"https://git.freesoftwareextremist.com/bloat/snapshot/bloat-master.tar.gz"
|
|
|
|
2. Build and install
|
|
Install GO from your system's package manager or from https://golang.org/dl.
|
|
Then run make to compile the source.
|
|
$ make
|
|
# make install
|
|
This will perform a system wide installation of bloat. By default, it will
|
|
install the binary in /usr/local/bin and data files in /usr/local/share/bloat.
|
|
You can change these paths by editing the Makefile.
|
|
|
|
3. Edit the config file
|
|
bloat looks for a file named bloat.conf in the working directory and
|
|
/etc/bloat in that order. You can also specify another file by using the -f
|
|
flag. Comments in the config file describe what each config value does. For
|
|
most cases, you only need to change the value of "client_website".
|
|
# cp bloat.gen.conf /etc/bloat.conf
|
|
# $EDITOR /etc/bloat.conf
|
|
|
|
5. Run the binary
|
|
$ bloat
|
|
Now you should create an init script to automatically start bloat at system
|
|
startup.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Update
|
|
|
|
Either run git pull to fetch the updated source or download the latest tarball
|
|
from the URL mentioned in the installation step. Then run make to install the
|
|
updated binary and data files
|
|
$ git pull
|
|
$ make
|
|
# make install
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: Commands starting with # are to be is to run as root.
