Shadow.BG

An API built around the RARBG backup, with optional Next.js frontend

Prerequisites

Go (v1.20)
NPM (Optional, to build the frontend)

Steps to build

git clone https://github.com/xav1erenc/shadowbg && cd shadowbg
go build -o shadow.bg main.go
# Optional
git clone https://github.com/xav1erenc/shadowbg-frontend ../shadowbg-frontend && cd ../shadowbg-frontend
npm install && npm run build
cp -rf out/* ../shadowbg/frontend/

Usage

You need to download the rarbg_db.zip file, unzip it and rename rarbg_db.sqlite to db.sqlite (Or you can change the main.go code to use any other name you want to rename the file to. With that, you can run the API:

./shadow.bg --port 8080 --serve-frontend # To serve frontend along with API
OR
./shadow.bg --port 8080                  # To serve only the headless API

Docker Image

Use the following commands to build and run the docker image.
Make sure that the original rarbg_db.sqlite exists under /data

docker build -t "shadowbg" .
docker run -d --name shadowbg -p 80:80 -v /tmp/rarbg_db.sqlite:/data/rarbg_db.sqlite shadowbg
