nes-auth-blog

nes-auth-blog showcase

A static blog with fun Nintendo-themed user authentication built with Hexo, Koa, and NESS.css. It is generated and powered by Node.js.

About

nes-auth-blog uses Hexo with a customized aath theme to render your markdown files into a static blog. It then runs a lightning-fast Koa server with static user authentication to serve the blog.

It is intended as a private, simple, lightweight, and zero-configuration blog for sharing internal or personal documentation across a small group of people via Markdown - beloved by developers the world over - as the preferred writing medium.

It leverages the use of Git for keeping track of changes in authorship of blog posts and publications, and for easy deployment.

Setup

  1. Clone the repo.
  2. Create, edit, and place your markdown .md files (blog posts) in the source/_posts directory.
  3. Add your authorized users to the array in the server/users.json file as a { "name": "user", "password": "pword" } object.

Running

To run an instance of nes-auth-blog simply run the npm install and npm start commands in the root of the repository directory and open a browser window to http://localhost:3000/.

The default credentials to access the blog are username admin and password root. Please remember to remove the default credentials before deploying to secure your blog.

Configuration

To configure your blog title and other information, open and edit your _config.yml file.

For more Hexo-specific configuration please refer to the Hexo documentation.

You can configure two environment variables at deployment time or at development time with dotenv:

  • SESSION_SECRET - the key used to encrypt and store the session cookie on the client-side
  • PORT - the port number for the server

You are encouraged to make this project your own by customizing the server authentication styles under server with a framework like PSone.css and with a different Hexo theme.
