Vpub

Since vpub doesn't provide precompiled binaries - we need to compile it ourselves.

Prerequisites

Easiest way to get started is to use some Linux distribution and install the following:

- Golang

- Postgres

- Git

- Make

- GCC

Make sure that Postgres service is started and you can access it. You also have to create database named vpub`. You can do that from the shell using `createdb vpub.

Compilation from the source

Using git` clone `https://git.sr.ht/~m15o/vpub` to a folder which you will use to serve your `vpub` instance. Then navigate to the `vpub` folder and use `make to compile it.

git clone https://git.sr.ht/~m15o/vpub
cd vpub
make

You should now have vpub` executable in `./bin/ folder!
