BantFlags

A user script and backend enabling user created flags on bant, originally based on extraflags.

Install .NET
Clone and build the BantFlags .NET project.
Create the database using database.sql.
- Change the password.
configure BantFlags/appsettings.example.json with your connection string and webroot (the directory you wish to serve the flags from) and rename it to appsettings.json
- The location of the BantFlags application and the served content are not necessarly the same. If you leave it empty, or provide a nonexistant path the application will look for the wwwroot folder inside the working directory.
- This should be placed either in inside the working directory or the same directory as the program.
Add flags to the backend (currently only possible by querying the database directly), and place image with the same name in {webroot}/flags/.
Configure your webserver of choice to forward requests to kestral
- Example nginx config.
Run the application

profit.

Such a setup should map 1:1 to the userscript just by changing the variable back_end though I can't say I've ever tried it.

Tables look like this: posts

flags

postflags

where post_nr and flag in postflags are the primary key in their respective tables.

The backend exposes three endpoints used by the userscript to get and post flags, and a flags directory storing the images themselves.
