# webcomment

Rust webserver for comments, that you can easily embed in a website.

**Early development, not safe for production yet**

## Features

* List and post comments by topic (e.g. each article in your blog is a topic)
* Admin approval
* Admin notification on new comment via Matrix
* Embedded one-file webserver
* [Tera](https://github.com/Keats/tera) templates
* Comment frequency limit per IP

## Use

    webcomment init
    
    # This adds an admin password to the config (password are hashed)
    webcomment psw
    
    # edit ~/.config/webcomment/config.toml
    
    webcomment start

Each topic is accessible at `/t/<topic_name>`.

Admin login is accessible at `/admin`. Once authenticated, you can see the pending comments on the topic pages.
