TagMachine is a new social media platform

#TagMachine

NOTE: I'm re-writing this project using the bolt architecture here: https://github.com/hartsfield/machinetag

Consider this project obsolete

NOTE: This program is still in alpha stages and is extremely unstable. Don't expect it to be bug free.

TagMachine is a new type of social media website that aims to accept and embrace social media as a modern form of journalism.

TagMachine requires Redis (6.0.16+) and has only been tested on Linux servers.

To run this program:

• clone the repository and cd into the project directory
• Start redis (generally redis-server &)
• run this command with your personal environment variables for the hmac sample secret and testing password:

hmacss=YOUR_SECRET_PHRASE testPass=YOUR_TESTING_PASS go run .

This will start TagMachine but the website will fail to load until you add data. You can add test data using another progam I'm creating as a test suite called TagBot.
