My personal blog

Blog

This blog is meant to be a place for me to talk about my projects, and occasionally share some useful information. Enjoy!

This is a Next.js project bootstrapped with create-next-app.

Getting Started

First, run the development server:

npm run dev
# or
yarn dev

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

You can start editing the page by modifying pages/index.tsx. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.

API routes can be accessed on http://localhost:3000/api/hello. This endpoint can be edited in pages/api/hello.ts.

The pages/api directory is mapped to /api/*. Files in this directory are treated as API routes instead of React pages.

Infrastructure Setup

# from host
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nginx

# from remote
scp nginx.conf /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

# from host
sudo systemctl start nginx.service
sudo systemctl enable nginx.service

Resizing Images

Images in posts should be a maximum of 1000px wide, and JPG format. To convert the images automatically, copy the full-sized images to images/, then run:

You need imagemagick to run these commands.

# assuming you have a directory under public with the original images, set IMGDIR to it
export IMGDIR="dashcam-to-speed-limits"

cp -r public/$IMGDIR images

# convert the jpgs and pngs to jpg, and downscale them if they're wider than 1000px
convert 'images/'$IMGDIR'/*.jpg[1000x>]' -set filename:base "%[basename]" "public/$IMGDIR/%[filename:base].jpg"
convert 'images/'$IMGDIR'/*.png[1000x>]' -set filename:base "%[basename]" "public/$IMGDIR/%[filename:base].jpg"

# downscape a thumbnail
convert 'image.jpg[200x>]' -set filename:base "%[basename]" "./%[filename:base].jpg"
