> Instance-agnostic share page for the Fediverse.
|
||
|
||
**[Share₂Fedi]** allows you to share stuff on Mastodon, GoToSocial, Pleroma, and
|
||
other federated social networks, instance-agnostic. Just type in the post text
|
||
and the instance URL, and click ‘Post!’
|
||
|
||
Or, open this page with the prefilled `text` URL parameter—it will be
|
||
automatically inserted into the text field. The same goes for the `instance` URL
|
||
parameter. This can be used to build custom share buttons for the federated
|
||
social networks:
|
||
|
||
```html
|
||
<a
|
||
href="https://s2f.kytta.dev/?text=Hello%20world!&instance=https%3A%2F%2Fmastodon.xyz"
|
||
>
|
||
Share on mastodon.xyz
|
||
</a>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The instance URL can be saved in your `localStorage` to be automatically
|
||
appended if used later—handy!
|
||
|
||
## Hosting
|
||
|
||
### Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare Pages
|
||
|
||
**Share₂Fedi** was designed to run on [Vercel](https://vercel.com/), but you can
|
||
also run it on [Netlify](https://www.netlify.com/) or
|
||
[Cloudflare Pages](https://pages.cloudflare.com/). To deploy it yourself (it's
|
||
free!), you can use the following buttons:
|
||
|
||
[](https://vercel.com/new/clone?repository-url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fkytta%2Fshare2fedi)
|
||
[](https://app.netlify.com/start/deploy?repository=https://github.com/kytta/share2fedi)
|
||
|
||
To deploy to Cloudflare Pages, fork the repo and
|
||
[follow the instructions](https://docs.astro.build/en/guides/deploy/cloudflare/#how-to-deploy-a-site-with-git).
|
||
|
||
### Host it yourself
|
||
|
||
Self-hosting **Share₂Fedi** outside of Vercel requires some extra setup:
|
||
|
||
**Prerequisites:** modern Node.js (v16 or later), `pnpm`.
|
||
|
||
1. Install dependencies.
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
pnpm install
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
2. Build.
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
pnpm build
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
3. Run server.
|
||
|
||
> By default, this will only listen on localhost port 3000. To enable
|
||
> listening on a ceratin hostand/or port, set the `HOST` and `PORT`
|
||
> environment variables, respectively.
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
node dist/server/entry.mjs
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
alternatively, if you want to run the process in the background:
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
pm2 start dist/server/entry.mjs --watch --ignore-watch="node_modules"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
> You can find a summary for pm2 at:
|
||
> https://pm2.keymetrics.io/docs/usage/quick-start/
|
||
|
||
> More information about self-hosting an Astro website with Node:

|
||
|
||
4. Set up a reverse proxy.
|
||
|
||
Basically, you need to run a reverse proxy that would redirect all incoming
|
||
requests to `localhost:3000`. Here's how to achieve this in various HTTP
|
||
servers:
|
||
|
||
1. Apache
|
||
|
||
```apacheconf
|
||
ProxyPass "/" "http://localhost:3000/"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
2. Nginx
|
||
|
||
```nginxconf
|
||
location / {
|
||
proxy_pass http://localhost:3000/;
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
3. Caddy
|
||
|
||
```caddy
|
||
reverse_proxy :3000
|
||
```
|
||
|
