toying with tootik
General hiccups:
• default args exit un-helpfully
• had to generate a gemini key/cert
• had to point tootik to an https cert (fullchain)
• registration is disabled on a timer (RegistrationInterval?)
• followed accounts have to be older than an age (in the docs -- MinActorAge)
• time values are all in nanoseconds
I tried to run it locally, but it wouldn't federate without being reachable from the internet.
• ended up running it on one of my domains
I tried to run the web parts on 8443, but remote servers ignored the port and tried to get info from the domain.
• do NOT specify the port in the domain argument on the cli invoking tootik
• just pass :8443 to as the addr (or 0.0.0.0:8443 if it refused to bind)
Had to configure nginx to redirect individual paths to the correct path and port.
There's probably a better way, but redirected the following:
• /.well-known/webfinger
• /user
• /users
• /post
• /inbox
There might be more, but I just based that on error messages from tootik and the nginx access log as mastodon.social tried to resolve different paths when searching, subscribing, and posting.
