The missing open source blog system on Ruby on Rails.

WBlog is open source blog which built for mobile first, it's licenced on MIT, use it for free!

中文说明文档

Characteristic:

• Awful reading feeling for reader
• Inpendent comment system, store data on your own sever
• With mardown support, you can post powerful and clean articles

A demo came from my English blog: http://en.yafeilee.me

Power Admin Dashboard: http://en.yafeilee.me/admin, user and password are configurable.

• Responsive, iPhone, iPad, Notebook, PC, all are supported
• QR Code attached article, scan and share it
• Inpendent comment system, managed by yourself
• Markdown supported, code highlight, especially for programmer, like you
• Personalize it, commercialize it, it all depends on you

Make it to the best Ruby on Rails Blog system in the world.

WBlog MUST run in Linux or Mac, it depends on Mongodb database. You can run it like a Ruby on Rails project as usual:

1. Clone it

git clone [email protected]:windy/wblog.git cd wblog

2. Install dependencies & configure

# Install mongodb ( see how to install it on your platform )
# on Mac, you can install it like this:
brew install mongodb 

bundle install
cp config/application.yml.example config/application.yml
cp config/mongoid.yml.example config/mongoid.yml

Update application.yml & mongoid.yml as you need

3. Start it

rails s

If there is any error found, please check your database's user and password.

4. Post the first article

visit: http://127.0.0.1:3000/admin, input your username and password that is just configurated in application.yml. then, post a new article.

OK, That's all.

WBlog uses mina as automation deployment tool, uses unicorn as the Rack container.

WBlog recommends nginx as reverse proxy server.

It will be very fast.

Ruby on Rails project deployment is another big topic, I would NOT talk it here.
