This page is used to detail the work achieved around the VM In Transition.
...because there is nothing more ephemeral than digital culture...
Installing Yunohost for deploying quickly various web services
- Reference website: https://yunohost.org/#/
- List of apps and services maintained by Yunohost https://yunohost.org/#/apps_fr
- Lists of apps and services maintained by the community https://yunohost.org/#/apps_in_progress_fr
- For installing Yunohost in a Debian Jessie, we use the following script https://yunohost.org/#/install_on_debian_fr
Yunohost uses nginx, therefore when installing Debian, do not check the option "Web server", if not Apache will eat port 80
- Instal Git
sudo apt-get install git
- Clone the repository of installation of YunoHost
git clone https://github.com/YunoHost/install_script /tmp/install_script
- The root user need to have a password, if it is not the case, create one (if not the install script will fail):
sudo passwd root
- Launch the install script
cd /tmp/install_script && sudo ./install_yunohostv2
- You need then to connect to the server through a web browser, once the install process is over, the server screen (if there is one) will indicate the IP where you need to connect
- You will need to define an administrator password
- And a domain name, either you dispose of a domain or sub-domain that you direct towards the server, either you can use a dyndns proposed by yunohost, for instance anarchaserver.nohost.me
- Once everything is achieved, you can install applications, and the overall results looks like:
Yunohost selection of web services installed in the VM
Chat xmmp Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) is a communications protocol for message-oriented middleware based on XML (Extensible Markup Language). This chat will enable feminist group to create their own IRC channel.
Framadate Enables to create small surveys without users having to log in so that people can agree on a date or possible option (a kind of simplified dudle).
Limesurvey LimeSurvey (formerly PHPSurveyor) is an Open Source PHP web application to develop, publish and collect responses to online & offline surveys. For more information about this great open source survey tool, visit Limesurvey wikipedia.
Zerobin It is a minimalist, open source online pastebin where the server has zero knowledge of pasted data. Data is encrypted/decrypted in the browser using 256bit AES in Galois Counter mode.
Jirafeau Jirafeau is a web site permitting to upload a file in a simple way and give an unique link to it. It is like a dropbox or weshare riseup option.
Aims VM In Transition
This VM aims at providing selected and targeted services that are not easy to find and are lacking inside the planet of autonomous feminists servers such as:
- IRC chat for enabling feminist groups to engage trough this channel for their internal communication
- Framadate to quickly set up dates for meeting proposals (or any quick survey looking for deciding most likable options for a group of people)
- Limesurvey as a strong open free alternative to google surveys that enable feminist groups to conduct their surveys and data collection around sensible topics without high jacking the privacy of their respondents, neither the security of the data set they are collecting
- Jirafeau for easily sharing documents with others by uploading them in an encrypted way and sharing a link for downloading them
- Zerobin to create documents and sharing them with others ensuring that the server admin can not know what is being written
The VM is called In transition because we want to provide those services to feminist groups we know and collaborate with in a non permanent basis. This means that we are aware that data can become sensitive at any moment in time and that we should take care of backing them up, hosting them in safe and encrypted forms and so on, when you do not have still the tools you need, you can use our services for a limited amount of time.
We will settle clear time guidelines for the creation of sondage and zerobin, inasmuch as for the transfer of documents with girafeau. The use of limesurvey will be decided on a base to base case, depending of the aims and needs of the groups requesting this option. Finally IRC chats will be our more "permanent" service inside this VM In transition.
Guidelines for using services
- IRC chat
TOS of 8http://www.gamers-irc.org/terms-of-service.html Gamers IRC] offers interesting lines that we could take into account at the same time is is very extensive and as we are planning to offer this service to few and selected people not sure we need it.
- Framadate
Your survey will be automatically archived 60 days after the last date of your consultation. You can also define another date for this automatic archiving, however it should be not later than 90 days after the last date of your consultation.
- Limesurvey
This service is limited to 200 answers and we ask persons to send us an email to anarchaserver@autistiche.org in order to detail for how long they need the survey on going. This service will be negotiate for each case particular needs and once the survey is over, we will ask survey holders to export data so we can erase all answers and data related to that survey.
- Jirafeau
The TOS of Jirafeau is very precise and looking to mitigate any possible legal action against them: http://jirafeau.net/tos.php Unsure if we need something that precise but could reuse some parts. Upload is currently limited to 100mb and files are stored no longer than a week.
- Zerobin
Terms of Usage for Zerobin service. By using this service you agree to the following: You may not use bots or automation software to scrape or access urls on this website. You may not post PII; Personally Identifiable Information Regarding expiration dates for zerobin you cqn set up for one month maximum.
