This is a web based search engine for PTT boards of the biggest BBS site, PTT, in Taiwan and is build in react. The website is deployed here.
Note: This Repository and App is intended for good use. The ultimate goal of this application is to make all information on PTT transparent to others and to bring benefits for people. This does not include exploiting information on PTT for personal gains. e.g. I did not put the Stock Board into the web application for a reason, people should not try to make money out of this app.
First clone the repository.
git clone https://github.com/billcccheng/ptt-search.git
Then npm install to install all the required packages. After you have
all the packages installed, you can npm run start to play around with you app on port 8080.
npm install
npm run start
If you want to change your port to 8000, just go to package.json and change "start":... to
"start": "PORT=8000 webpack-dev-server --hot --open --host 0.0.0.0"
- All the logic and searching of the app is loaded on a heroku server. All the source code of the heroku server can be found here
