hi hello i'm back to be more annoying about otw-archive! in 2 days i single-handedly ported my instance of otw-archive (the ao3 code) - superlove - from paperclip, its deprecated and obsolete image library, to active storage, the newer and officially supported first party image library for ruby on rails. it was extremely hard work but i'm very proud of it and i'm happy to say that i've written a guide on how i did it!

i'd be more than happy to help anyone who plans on implementing active storage in otw-archive. it was so so hard and i couldn't have done it without the help of kind strangers online who've done this migration before, and friends who stuck by me as i complained about it during the process, hahaha.

tutorial for deploying otw-archive (ao3) through docker

hey! [personal profile] bluedreaming told me about this comm and i am very grateful because, while the only kinda code i know is html/css and i suck at everything else, i AM very passionate about self hosting and servers and shit, and one of my nerdiest stupidest flexes is that i am the third person in the world to push otw-archive (ao3's code) into production for a public website! that site is superlove and i am very proud of it.

but the real reason why i'm posting: the other day i was messing around with a docker deployment of otw-a, because superlove was done bare metal, and i managed to successfully deploy otw-a in production through docker. and i'm insanely proud that i managed it and i wrote a whole guide on how to do it, because i documented through my first attempt, then started from scratch when i was done and went through it ALL over again to test my documentation, and both times worked!

the guide is on superlove here. i hope people find it helpful! thank you!
