# Lemmy Poster
|
|
|
|
A Laravel application for posting articles to Lemmy platforms.
|
|
|
|
## Docker Deployment
|
|
|
|
### Building the Image
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker build -t your-registry/lemmy-poster:latest .
|
|
docker push your-registry/lemmy-poster:latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Docker Compose
|
|
|
|
Create a `docker-compose.yml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
services:
|
|
app-web:
|
|
image: your-registry/lemmy-poster:latest
|
|
command: ["web"]
|
|
ports:
|
|
- "8000:8000"
|
|
environment:
|
|

|
|
restart: unless-stopped
|
|
|
|
app-queue:

|
|
restart: unless-stopped
|
|
|
|

|
|

|
|
environment:
|
|
- MYSQL_DATABASE=${DB_DATABASE}
|
|
- MYSQL_USER=${DB_USERNAME}
|
|
- MYSQL_PASSWORD=${DB_PASSWORD}
|
|
- MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=${DB_PASSWORD}
|

|
|
volumes:

|
|
restart: unless-stopped
|
|
|
|
volumes:
|
|
mysql_data:
|
|
storage_data:
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Environment Variables
|
|
|
|
Create a `.env` file with:
|
|
|
|
```env
|
|
# Database Settings
|
|
DB_DATABASE=lemmy_poster
|
|
DB_USERNAME=lemmy_user
|
|
DB_PASSWORD=your-password
|
|
|
|
# Lemmy Settings
|
|
LEMMY_INSTANCE=your-lemmy-instance.com
|
|
LEMMY_USERNAME=your-lemmy-username
|
|
LEMMY_PASSWORD=your-lemmy-password
|
|
LEMMY_COMMUNITY=your-target-community
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Deployment
|
|
|
|
1. Build and push the image to your registry
|
|
2. Copy the docker-compose.yml to your server
|
|
3. Create the .env file with your environment variables
|
|
4. Run: `docker compose up -d`
|
|
|
|
The application will automatically:
|
|
- Wait for the database to be ready
|
|
- Run database migrations on first startup
|
|
- Start the queue worker after migrations complete
|
|
- Handle race conditions between web and queue containers
|
|
|
|
### Initial Setup
|
|
|
|
After deployment, the article refresh will run every hour. To trigger the initial article fetch manually:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker compose exec app-web php artisan article:refresh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The application will then automatically:
|
|
- Fetch new articles every hour
|
|
- Publish valid articles every 5 minutes
|
|
- Sync community posts every 10 minutes
|
|
|
|
The web interface will be available on port 8000.
|
|
|
|
### Architecture
|
|
|
|
The application uses a multi-container setup:
|
|
- **app-web**: Serves the Laravel web interface and handles HTTP requests
|
|
- **app-queue**: Processes background jobs (article fetching, Lemmy posting)
|
|
- **mysql**: Database storage for articles, logs, and application data
|
|
|
|
Both app containers use the same Docker image but with different commands (`web` or `queue`). Environment variables are passed from your `.env` file to configure database access and Lemmy integration.
