# bulb
|
|
|
|
A simple bulletin board for your server. Users of the system can post and read
|
|
messages using the "bulb" command. You can also set up multiple boards.
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
You can install the `bulb` command by running:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
hare build cmd/bulb
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And then installing the resulting executable.
|
|
|
|
The reccomended way to use this program is to have the executable owned by the
|
|
user `bulb`, with the setuid bit enabled. Then, create a list of boards (empty
|
|
text files) located at `/var/bulb/` which are also owned by `bulb`. This will
|
|
allow all users to use the program to post on boards without allowing them to
|
|
directly edit their contents, thereby preventing them from mischeviously
|
|
re-writing chat history.
|
|
|
|
