Remote configuration for Glasnost has landed. The new approach lays the foundation for easy no-restart management of future features like multi-author blogs, tag whitelists/blacklists, advanced filtering and others.
Configuration
Start by uploading a similar JSON configuration file with your values to pastebin or github gists:
{
"blog_author": "ontofractal",
"source_blockchain": "steem",
"about_blog_permlink": "ann-introducing-glasnost-alpha-open-source-blog-and-app-server-for-steem-golos-blockchains"
}
Then point Glasnost to your uploaded raw(!) file using Docker environment variable GLASNOST_CONFIG_URL.
docker run -it -p 80:80 -e "GLASNOST_CONFIG_URL=..." --restart on-failure:10 ontofractal/glasnost:latest
Attention: you need a (raw)[http://pastebin.com/raw/bQ74P7sw] file link, not a default one.
