# remark42 [![Build Status](https://drone.umputun.com/api/badges/umputun/remark/status.svg)](https://drone.umputun.com/umputun/remark)
Remark42 is a self-hosted, lightweight, and simple (yet functional) comment engine, which doesn't spy on users. It can be embedded into blogs, articles or any other place where readers add comments.
- Social login via Google, Facebook and Github
- Multi-level nested comments with both tree and plain presentations
- Import from disqus
- Moderator can remove comments and block users
- Voting and pinning system
- Sortable comments
- Extractor for recent comments, cross-post
- Export data to json with automatic backups
- No external databases, everything embedded in a single data file
- Fully dockerized and can be deployed in a single command
- Clean, lightweight and fully customizable UI
- Multi-site mode from a single instance
- Integration with automatic ssl via [nginx-le](https://github.com/umputun/nginx-le)

## API
### Authorization
- `GET /auth/{provider}/login?from=http://url` - perform "social" login with one of supported providers and redirect to `url`
- `GET /auth/{provider}/logout` - logout
```go
type User struct {
Name string `json:"name"`
ID string `json:"id"`
Picture string `json:"picture"`
Profile string `json:"profile"`
Admin bool `json:"admin"`
}
```
_currently supported providers are `google`, `facebook` and `github`_
### Commenting
- `POST /api/v1/comment` - add a comment. _auth required_
```go
type Comment struct {
ID string `json:"id"` // comment ID, read only
ParentID string `json:"pid"` // parent ID
Text string `json:"text"` // comment text
User User `json:"user"` // user info, read only
Locator Locator `json:"locator"` // post locator
Score int `json:"score"` // comment score, read only
Votes map[string]bool `json:"votes"` // comment votes, read only
Timestamp time.Time `json:"time"` // time stamp, read only
Pin bool `json:"pin"` // pinned status, read only
}
type Locator struct {
SiteID string `json:"site"` // site id
URL string `json:"url"` // post url
}
```
- `GET /api/v1/find?site=site-id&url=post-url&sort=fld&format=tree` - find all comments for given post
This is the primary call used by UI to show comments for given post. It can return comments in two formats - `plain` and `tree`.
In plain format result will be sorted list of `Comment`. In tree format this is going to be tree-like object with this structure:
```go
type Tree struct {
Nodes []Node `json:"comments"`
}
type Node struct {
Comment store.Comment `json:"comment"`
Replies []Node `json:"replies,omitempty"`
}
```
Sort can be `time` or `score`. Supported sort order with prefix -/+, i.e. `-time`. For `tree` mode sort will be applied to top-level comments only and all replies always sorted by time.
- `GET /api/v1/last/{max}?site=site-id` - get up to `{max}` last comments
- `GET /api/v1/id/{id}?site=site-id` - get comment by `id`
- `GET /api/v1/comments?site=site-id&user=id` - get comment by `user id`
- `GET /api/v1/count?site=site-id&url=post-url` - get comment's count for `{url}`
- `GET /api/v1/list?site=site-id` - list commented posts
- `GET /api/v1/user` - get user info, _auth required_
- `PUT /api/v1/vote/{id}?site=site-id&url=post-url&vote=1` - vote for comment. `vote`=1 will increase score, -1 decrease. _auth required_
### Admin
- `DELETE /api/v1/admin/comment/{id}?site=site-id&url=post-url` - delete comment by `id`. _auth and admin required_
- `PUT /api/v1/admin/user/{userid}?site=site-id&block=1` - block or unblock user. _auth and admin required_
- `GET /api/v1/admin/export?site=side-id&mode=[stream|file]` - export all comments to json stream or gz file. _auth and admin required_
- `POST /api/v1/admin/import?site=side-id` - import comments from the backup. _auth and admin required_
- `PUT /api/v1/admin/pin/{id}?site=site-id&url=post-url&pin=1` - pin or unpin comment. _auth and admin required_
