SBTools
SBTools is a Django web service for browsing the SponsorBlock database (https://sponsor.ajay.app/).
The project is tested to work on Python 3.8.
There is a publicly hosted instance of this service at https://sb.ltn.fi/
Installation & Usage
To install the requirements on Linux, psycopg2 needs to be compiled. pip does this automatically if build requirements are available. https://www.psycopg.org/docs/install.html#build-prerequisites
An alternative to building is to use psycopg2-binary. You can edit requirements.txt or install it manually if you can't or don't want to build.
The binary version is not recommended for production by psycopg2 developers and could in certain situations lead to problems, which is why we default to building. https://www.psycopg.org/docs/install.html#psycopg-vs-psycopg-binary
Development
For development you can clone the repo, install requirements.txt (in a venv preferably) and run the Django development server with (venv) python manage.py runserver.
Database should still be migrated to PostgreSQL (e.g. pgloader database.db postgresql://sponsorblock@localhost/sponsorblock) and modified with INSERT INTO config VALUES ('updated', now()); or similar.
Database connection details are configured in SBtools/settings/development.py
The SECRET_KEY doesn't need changing necessarily.
Production
There are helpful files under docs/ for deploying the service.
All examples assume a Linux user sponsorblock with home folder at /srv/sponsorblock/
and proxying the site through Nginx with webroot at /srv/http/sbtools/
You should also have a PostgreSQL user sponsorblock with a database called sponsorblock.
Based on brief testing, using the SQLite database has abysmal performance.
Installing before running could look like the following
[sponsorblock]$ git clone https://github.com/Lartza/SBtools.git
[sponsorblock]$ python -m venv /srv/sponsorblock/SBtools/venv
[sponsorblock]$ /srv/sponsorblock/SBtools/venv/bin/pip install -r /srv/sponsorblock/SBtools/requirements.txt
[sponsorblock]$ /srv/sponsorblock/SBtools/venv/bin/pip install gunicorn
[sponsorblock]$ DB_PASSWORD='changeme' SECRET_KEY='changeme' STATIC_ROOT='/srv/http/sbtools/static/' DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE='SBtools.settings.production' /srv/sponsorblock/SBtools/venv/bin/python /srv/sponsorblock/SBtools/manage.py collectstatic --noinputThe DB_PASSWORD, SECRET_KEY and STATIC_ROOT variables are also present in files under docs/ and should be modified as needed.
SECRET_KEY should be a large random value and kept secret. You could generate one on https://djecrety.ir/
