Instances

The official instance is on https://bibliogram.art.

You can see a list of instances run by the community on the wiki page.

If you only use one computer, you can install Bibliogram on that computer and then access the instance through localhost.

Installing

Quick setup, if you've run webservers before:

  1. Install node.js (^12.13.0 suggested)
  2. $ git clone https://github.com/cloudrac3r/bibliogram
    If you are using a fork, be sure to actually install that fork instead!
  3. $ cd bibliogram
  4. $ npm install --no-optional (for Tor support, omit --no-optional)
  5. Edit /config.js to suit your server environment
  6. $ npm start

Bibliogram is now running on 0.0.0.0:10407.

See Wiki:Installing and Wiki:Configuring for more details. Problems? Wiki:Troubleshooting

You can also deploy on Heroku, though I personally would not recommend this. https://heroku.com/deploy?template=https://github.com/cloudrac3r/bibliogram
