My Web

Important TODO

• Get a new background

Welcome to the source code for my website! Please contact me if you would like to collaborate and thank you for visiting.

This website is currently self hosted on my Raspberry Pi. Any interference and the killswitch will activate and stop the UK national grid power system so please don't tamper with my domain :).

Architecture

All services run in Docker containers orchestrated by Docker Compose:

nginx (80, 443) ── Frontend SPA + Reverse Proxy
backend (8080)  ── Go API
db (5432)       ── PostgreSQL 16
icecast2 (8000) ── Audio Streaming
gitea (3000)    ── Self-Hosted Git
gitea-runner    ── CI/CD Runner
certbot         ── SSL Certificate Management

Tech Stack

Frontend - Vue 3, Vite, Tailwind CSS v4, Pinia, Vue Router, markdown-it (wikilinks + KaTeX), Rust/WASM

Backend - Go (Gin), gqlgen (GraphQL), GORM, PostgreSQL, JWT auth, WebSockets

Integrations - Spotify API, Anthropic Claude API, Icecast2

Infrastructure - Docker Compose, Nginx, Let's Encrypt (Certbot), Gitea + Act Runner

Features

• Spotify integration (currently playing, recently played)
• Obsidian note viewer with wikilink and LaTeX support
• Live radio streaming via Icecast2
• Real-time chat over WebSockets
• Blog with admin panel (CRUD)
• Activity and rowing session tracking
• Fan shrines (GTO, Evangelion, Demoman, Skip Skip Benben)
• Self-hosted Git (Gitea) with CI/CD and commit feed on homepage
• Claude AI integration

Pages

Route	Description
/	Home dashboard with grid layout
/admin	Admin panel (authenticated)
/cv	Curriculum Vitae
/bookmarks	Bookmarks
/notes/:path	Obsidian note viewer
/shrines	Fan shrine index + individual shrines

API

The primary API is GraphQL at POST /api/graphql (with a playground at GET /api/graphql). Queries cover posts, users, favorites, activities, rowing sessions, Spotify (currently playing, recently played), Gitea feed, and messages.

REST endpoints handle auth (/auth/*), Spotify OAuth (/spotify/*), file uploads (/messages/upload), note serving (/notes/*), and WebSocket chat (/api/ws).

Protected endpoints require JWT authentication via /auth/login (tokens set as HTTP-only cookies).

Local Testing (Dev Mode)

Run the full stack over plain HTTP without SSL certificates:

docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.dev.yml up --build

This uses an HTTP-only nginx config with all routing (SPA, backend proxy, radio, gitea) and disables certbot. Visit http://localhost to test.

Future Ideas

• More Rust to WASM
• ML for chatboards
• Cache requests
• Design more webpages
• Calendar to show radio times
• Nice smooth function background and transitions
• Design shrines
• Redis (not really but practical experience)

.env

These environment variables are found in the .env file. The use of environment variables can be found by reading the code so the security of the variable names are not significant.
