## Installation

### Using uWSGI

Note: replace `www-data` with whatever user your webserver runs as.

1. Go to /srv: `cd /srv`
2. Clone the repository: `git clone https://git.bbaovanc.com/bbaovanc/imgupload.git`
3. Change ownership of /srv/imgupload: `sudo chown www-data:www-data /srv/imgupload`
4. Enter www-data user: `sudo su www-data`
5. Change directories to /srv/imgupload: `cd /srv/imgupload`
6. Checkout the version you want (replace [version] with desired version tag: `git checkout [version]`
7. Enter the imgupload directory: `cd imgupload`
8. Create a virtualenv: `python3 -m venv env`
9. Enter the virtualenv: `source env/bin/activate`
10. Install dependencies: `python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt`
11. Leave the www-data user: `exit`
12. Copy the default uWSGI configuration: `sudo cp /srv/imgupload/uwsgi.ini.default /etc/uwsgi/apps-available/imgupload.ini`
13. Modify `/etc/uwsgi/apps-available/imgupload.ini` to your preferences
14. Enable imgupload: `sudo ln -s /etc/uwsgi/apps-available/imgupload.ini /etc/uwsgi/apps-enabled/`
15. Restart uWSGI: `sudo systemctl restart uwsgi`
16. Set up your webserver to proxy the uwsgi.sock

Example NGINX location block:

```nginx
location /upload {
    include uwsgi_params;
    uwsgi_pass unix:/srv/imgupload/uwsgi.sock;
    client_max_body_size 25M;
}
```
