An API built around the RARBG backup, with optional Next.js frontend

Prerequisites

  • NPM (Optional, to build the frontend)
Steps to build
git clone https://github.com/xav1erenc/shadowbg && cd shadowbg
go build -o shadow.bg main.go

Usage

You need to download the rarbg_db.zip file, unzip it and rename rarbg_db.sqlite to db.sqlite (Or you can change the main.go code to use any other name you want to rename the file to. With that, you can run the API:

./shadow.bg --port 8080 --serve-frontend # To serve frontend along with API
OR
./shadow.bg --port 8080                  # To serve only the headless API
