# Spee.ch
spee.ch provides a user-friendly, custom-designed, image and video hosting site backed by a decentralized network and
blockchain ([LBRY](https://lbry.tech/)). Via just a small set of config files, you can spin your an entire spee.ch site back up including assets.
**Please note: the spee.ch code base and setup instructions are no longer actively maintained now that we have lbry.tv. Proceed at your own caution. Setup will require dev ops skills.**
For a completely open, unrestricted example of a spee.ch site, check out https://www.spee.ch.
For a closed, custom-hosted and branded example, check out https://lbry.theantimedia.com/.
## Installation
### Ubuntu Step-by-Step
[Step-by-step Ubuntu Install Guide](./docs/ubuntuinstall.md)
### Full Instructions
#### Get some information ready:
- mysqlusername
- mysqlpassword
- domainname or 'http://localhost:3000'
- speechport = 3000
#### Install and Set Up Dependencies
- Firewall open ports
- 22
- 80
- 443
- 3333
- 4444
- [NodeJS](https://nodejs.org)

```
mysql> `ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'yourpassword';`
```
- [lbrynet](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry) daemon
- run this as a service exposing ports 3333 and 4444
- _note_: once the daemon is running, issue commands in another terminal session (tmux) to retrieve an address for your wallet to recieve 5+ LBC credits (or join us in the [#speech discord channel](https://discord.gg/YjYbwhS) and we will send you a few)
- `./lbrynet commands` gets a list of commands
- `./lbrynet account_balance` gets your balance (initially 0.0)
- `./lbrynet address_list` gets addresses you can use to recieve LBC
- [FFmpeg](https://www.ffmpeg.org/download.html)
- [ImageMagick](https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/graphics/imagemagick)
- Spee.ch (below)
- pm2 (optional) process manager such as pm2 to run speech server.js
- http proxy server e.g. caddy, nginx, or traefik, to forward 80/443 to speech port 3000
- _note: even running on http://localhost, you must redirect http or https to port 3000_
#### Clone spee.ch
- release version for stable production
```
$ git clone -b release https://github.com/lbryio/spee.ch.git
```
- master version for development
```
$ git clone https://github.com/lbryio/spee.ch.git
```
- your own fork for customization
#### Change directory into your project
```
$ cd spee.ch
```
#### Install node dependencies
```
$ npm install
```
#### Create the config files using the built-in CLI
Make sure lbrynet is running in the background before proceeding.
_note: If you are opt to run a local chainquery, such as from [lbry-docker/chainquery](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-docker/tree/master/chainquery) you will need to specify connection details at this time in:_ ~/spee.ch/docs/setup/conf/speech/chainqueryConfig.json
```
$ npm run configure
```
#### Build & start the app
```
$ npm run build
$ npm run start
```
#### View in browser
- Visit [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) in your browser
#### Customize your app
Check out the [customization guide](https://github.com/lbryio/spee.ch/blob/master/customize.md) to change your app's appearance and components
#### (optional) add custom components and update the styles
- Create custom components by creating React components in `site/custom/src/`
- Update or override the CSS by changing the files in `site/custom/scss`
#### (optional) install your own chainquery
Instructions are coming at [lbry-docker] to install your own chainquery instance using docker-compose. This will require 50GB of preferably SSD space and at least 10 minutes to download, possibly much longer.
## Settings
There are a number of settings available for customizing the behavior of your installation.
[Here](https://github.com/lbryio/spee.ch/blob/master/docs/settings.md) is some documentation on them.

## Contribute
### Stack
The spee.ch stack is MySQL, Express.js, Node.js, and React.js. Spee.ch also runs `lbrynet` on its server, and it uses the `lbrynet` API to make requests -- such as `publish`, `create_channel`, and `get` -- on the `LBRY` network.
Spee.ch also runs a sync tool, which decodes blocks from the `LBRY` blockchain as they are mined, and stores the information in MySQL. It stores all claims in the `Claims` table, and all channel claims in the `Certificates` table.
- server
- [MySQL](https://www.mysql.com/)
- [express](https://www.npmjs.com/package/express)
- [node](https://nodejs.org/)
- [lbry](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry)
- [FFmpeg](https://www.ffmpeg.org/)
- client
- [react](https://reactjs.org/)
- redux
- sagas
- scss
- handlebars
### Architecture
- `cli/` contains the code for the CLI tool. Running the tool will create `.json` config files and place them in the `site/config/` folder
- `configure.js` is the entry point for the CLI tool
- `cli/defaults/` holds default config files
- `cli/questions/` holds the questions that the CLI tool asks to build the config files
- `client/` contains all of the client code
- The client side of spee.ch uses `React` and `Redux`
- `client/src/index.js` is the entry point for the client side js. It checks for preloaded state, creates the store, and places the `` component in the document.
- `client/src/app.js` holds the `` component, which contains the routes for `react-router-dom`
- `client/src/` contains all of the JSX code for the app. When the app is built, the content of this folder is transpiled into the `client/build/` folder.
- The Redux code is broken up into `actions/` `reducers/` and `selectors/`
- The React components are broken up into `containers/` (components that pull props directly from the Redux store), `components/` ('dumb' components), and `pages/`
- spee.ch also uses sagas which are in the `sagas/` folders and `channels/`
- `client/scss/` contains the CSS for the project \*
- `site/custom` is a folder which can be used to override the default components in `client/`
- The folder structure mimics that of the `client/` folder
- to customize spee.ch, place your own components and scss in the `site/custom/src/` and `site/custom/scss` folders.
- `server/` contains all of the server code
- `index.js` is the entry point for the server. It creates the [express app](https://expressjs.com/), requires the routes, syncs the database, and starts the server listening on the `PORT` designated in the config files.
- `server/routes/` contains all of the routes for the express app
- `server/controllers/` contains all of the controllers for all of the routes
- `server/models/` contains all of the models which the app uses to interact with the `MySQL` database.
- Spee.ch uses the [sequelize](http://docs.sequelizejs.com/) ORM for communicating with the database.
- `tests/` holds the end-to-end tests for this project
- Spee.ch uses `mocha` with the `chai` assertion library
- unit tests are located inside the project in-line with the files being tested and are designated with a `xxxx.test.js` file name
### Tests
- This package uses `mocha` with `chai` for testing.
- Before running tests, create a `testingConfig.js` file in `devConfig/` by copying `testingConfig.example.js`
- To run tests:
- To run all tests, including those that require LBC (like publishing), simply run `npm test`
- To run only tests that do not require LBC, run `npm run test:no-lbc`
### URL formats
Spee.ch has a few types of URL formats that return different assets from the LBRY network. Below is a list of all possible URLs for the content on spee.ch. You can learn more about LBRY URLs [here](https://lbry.tech/resources/uri).
- retrieve the controlling `LBRY` claim:
- https://spee.ch/`claim`
- https://spee.ch/`claim`.`ext` (serve)
- https://spee.ch/`claim`.`ext`&`querystring` (serve transformed)
- retrieve a specific `LBRY` claim:
- https://spee.ch/`claim_id`/`claim`
- https://spee.ch/`claim_id`/`claim`.`ext` (serve)
- https://spee.ch/`claim_id`/`claim`.`ext`&`querystring` (serve transformed)
- retrieve all contents for the controlling `LBRY` channel
- https://spee.ch/`@channel`
- a specific `LBRY` channel
- https://spee.ch/`@channel`:`channel_id`
- retrieve a specific claim within the controlling `LBRY` channel
- https://spee.ch/`@channel`/`claim`
- https://spee.ch/`@channel`/`claim`.`ext` (serve)
- https://spee.ch/`@channel`/`claim`.`ext`&`querystring` (serve)
- retrieve a specific claim within a specific `LBRY` channel
- https://spee.ch/`@channel`:`channel_id`/`claim`
- https://spee.ch/`@channel`:`channel_id`/`claim`.`ext` (serve)
- https://spee.ch/`@channel`:`channel_id`/`claim`.`ext`&`querystring` (serve)
- `querystring` can include the following transformation values separated by `&`
- h=`number` (defines height)
- w=`number` (defines width)
- t=`crop` or `stretch` (defines transformation - missing implies constrained proportions)
### Dependencies
Spee.ch depends on two other lbry technologies:
- [chainquery](https://github.com/lbryio/chainquery) - a normalized database of the blockchain data. We've provided credentials to use a public chainquery service. You can also install it on your own server to avoid being affected by the commons.
- [lbrynet](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry) - a daemon that handles your wallet and transactions.
