A web app for uploading and displaying custom content.

Models

• User

  • Can register multiple domains with custom content for each one.
  • This allows this app to sit on one machine but serve content specific to a domain or subdomain

• Pages

  • By default the root url shows all pages tied to a user
  • A user can edit the page content. Markdown allows pictures to be inserted into the body of the page.

• Projects

  • Projects allow photos to be uploaded. A project can have a description, title, cover photo, and multiple other photos.
  • The UI for displaying projects is a work in progress. This might be removed for simplicity

• Meta properties

  • Each domain can change the root page content. For example, if someone has a birthday, I could honor them with a quick custom message stored in the root_content column of the meta_property_list. That way the message is available at adriancann.com rather than a page adriancann.com/happy-birthday
  • The more serious reason is that some people may not want the rootmenu as is.

Current Hosting:

• This project is deployed to a digital ocean droplet running Ubuntu, Phusion Passenger and NGINX.
• For details about the woes of setup and deployment: visit adriancann.com and hope I have posted some content.

Wish list of features:

• Large photo upload solution

• Setup app with docker or vagrant
