Moebooru
An image board.
Requirements
As this is ongoing project, there will be more changes on requirement as this project goes. Currently this application is developed using:
- Ruby (3.1 or later)
- PostgreSQL (14 or later)
- Bundler gem
- node.js (16.0 or later)
- ImageMagick
- And various other requirement for the gems (check
Gemfile
for the list)
On RHEL, it goes like this (untested):
- ImageMagick
- gcc
- gcc-c++
- git
- jhead
- libxslt-devel
- libyaml-devel
- nodejs
- openssl-devel
- pcre-devel
- postgresql14-devel
- postgresql14-server
Base, EPEL, dnf module, and postgresql official repositories contain all the requirements.

Database Setup
After initializing PostgreSQL database, create user for moebooru with createdb
privilege:
postgres# create user moebooru_user with password 'the_password' createdb;

Configuration
See config/local_config.rb.example
. Additionally, as I move to ENV-based configuration, here's the list of currently supported ENV variables:
MB_DATABASE_URL
: sets database connection configuration. Syntax:postgres://<user>(:<pass>)@<host>(:<port>)/<dbname>
.MB_MEMCACHE_SERVERS
: addresses of memcache servers. Separated by comma.MB_PIWIK_HOST
: sets the host this application will attempt to contact a Piwik installation at. Defaults to false to not use Piwik if unset.MB_PIWIK_ID
: sets the Site ID this application will send analytics data for.MB_THREADS
: sets number of threads this application is running. Currently used to determine number of connection pool formemcached
. Defaults to 1 if unset.
