## Automatically redirect links

### LibRedirect
Use [LibRedirect](https://github.com/libredirect/libredirect) to automatically redirect Imgur links to rimgo!
- [Firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/libredirect/)
- [Chromium-based browsers (Brave, Google Chrome)](https://github.com/libredirect/libredirect#install-in-chromium-brave-and-chrome)

### GreaseMonkey script
There is a script to redirect Imgur links to rimgo.
[https://codeberg.org/zortazert/GreaseMonkey-Redirect/src/branch/main/imgur-to-rimgo.user.js](https://codeberg.org/zortazert/GreaseMonkey-Redirect/src/branch/main/imgur-to-rimgo.user.js)

### Redirector
You can use the [Redirector](https://github.com/einaregilsson/Redirector) extension to redirect Imgur links to rimgo with the configuration below:

* Description: Imgur -> rimgo
* Example URL: https://imgur.com/a/H8M4rcp
* Include pattern: `^https?://i?.?imgur.com(/.*)?$`
* Redirect to: `https://rimgo.example.com$1`
* Pattern type: Regular Expression

## Install
rimgo can run on any platform Go compiles on.

> It is strongly recommended to use [Caddy](https://caddyserver.com/) as your reverse proxy. Caddy is simple to configure, automatically manages your TLS certificates, and provides better performance with support for HTTP/2 and /3 (allow UDP port 443 in your firewall to use HTTP/3).

### Docker (recommended)
Install [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/) and [docker-compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/), then clone this repository.
```
git clone https://codeberg.org/video-prize-ranch/rimgo
cd rimgo
```

Edit the `docker-compose.yml` file using your favorite text editor.
```
nvim docker-compose.yml
```

You can now run rimgo.
```
sudo docker-compose up -d
```

#### Automatic updates
[Watchtower](https://containrrr.dev/watchtower/) can automatically update your Docker containers.

Create a new `docker-compose.yml` file or add the watchtower section to your existing `docker-compose.yml` file.
```yml
version: "3"
services:
  watchtower:
    image: containrrr/watchtower
    volumes:
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
```

### Build from source

#### Requirements
* Go v1.16 or later

Clone the repository and `cd` into it.
```
git clone https://codeberg.org/video-prize-ranch/rimgo
cd rimgo
```

Build rimgo.
```
go build
```

You can now run rimgo.
```
./rimgo
```

To include version information use:
```
go build -ldflags "-X codeberg.org/video-prize-ranch/rimgo/pages.VersionInfo=$(date '+%Y-%m-%d')-$(git rev-list --abbrev-commit -1 HEAD)"
```

(optional) You can use a .env file to set environment variables for configuration.
```
cp .env.example .env
nvim .env
```

## Configuration

rimgo can be configured using environment variables. The path to the .env file can be changed the -c flag.
