HTMLhouse

Publish HTML quickly.

HTMLhouse uses ACE editor for modifying HTML and shows a live preview of what you’ve created in an iframe alongside the source code.

No user signup is required -- authorization to modify an individual published page is saved on the creator’s device in local storage as an ID and JWT generated by the server.

It is also available as a Chrome extension and browsable on Android.

Development

Requirements

Go
Node.js
MySQL

Setup

Clone the repo
Run go get -d to get necessary dependencies
Run make install to install LESS compiler locally and generate the CSS files
Run the queries in init.sql to set up the database
Optional. Run ./keys.sh prod to create a new keypair

Running the server

Run go run main/main.go in the top level directory, optionally by creating a simple run script

#!/bin/bash

DB_USER=dbuser DB_PASSWORD=pass DB_DB=htmlhouse PRIVATE_KEY=keys/dev PUBLIC_KEY=keys/dev.pub go run main/main.go
