South London Webring

This is a work in progress!

Every tilde seems to have a webring, so this is one I made for South London.

This is quite janky as there's no PHP, so the redirection is done using JavaScript on pages that are injected with a user list through Go. When someone joins the ring through the Go script, these pages are updated along with a users.json file.

Install

git clone https://tildegit.org/jakew/webring.git
cd webring
go build -o manage .

Give the binary a suid bit so that when people execute the program the program can update the pages without the user having permission.

chmod u+s ./manage

Usage

The webring can be joined by running the binary.

./manage

The pages in the output folder are then updated to reflect the new person in the webring.

Links

Each user needs to have a snippet like so on their webpage.
