About

transgirl allows you to get random files from any AWS S3 compatible storage bucket using a lightweight, scalable go http api.

This project is a part of the Wamellow project for serving random images of Blåhajs for /blahaj. An example of this project in deployment can be found at transgirl.wamellow.com.

Deploy

To deploy this project, create the following docker-compose.yml:

services:
  app:
    image: ghcr.io/luna-devv/transgirl:latest
    container_name: transgirl
    ports:
      - "8080:8080"
    environment:
      AWS_REGION: auto
      AWS_BUCKET: wamellow
      AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: <your-access-key-id>
      AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: <your-secret-access-key>
      AWS_ENDPOINT: https://xxx.r2.cloudflarestorage.com
      AWS_PUBLIC_URL: https://r2.wamellow.com
      FILE_PREFIX: blahaj/
    restart: unless-stopped

To deploy the project, run:

docker compose up -d

Usage

To get a random file from the bucket, make a GET request to the / endpoint. You can also specify a prefix by setting the FILE_PREFIX environment variable, when this is set, the api will only return files that start with the specified prefix (i.e.: blahaj/GqpEBx.webp).

curl http://localhost:8080
{"url":"https://r2.wamellow.com/blahaj/wAuI4n.webp"}

---

Statistics

To see how many files are currently in the cache (any file from the bucket that starts with FILE_PREFIX), make a GET request to the /stats endpoint.

curl http://localhost:8080/stats
{"file_count": 242}

---

Refreshing

To refresh the cache, make a POST request to the /refresh endpoint. As authorization header, you need to provide the Bearer token that you set in the AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY environment variable.

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/refresh \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer <your-secret-access-key>"

A simple example of how you can use this api in a TypeScript project.

blahaj.ts

export interface BlahajResponse {
    url: string;
}

export async function getBlahaj() {
    const blahaj = await fetch(this.url)
        .then((r) => r.json())
        .catch(() => null) as BlahajResponse | null;

    return blahaj;
}

index.ts

import { getBlahaj } from './blahaj.ts';

const blahaj = await getBlahaj();
if (!blahaj) process.exit();

console.log(blahaj.url);

1. Install the discord.js package using npm install discord.js.
2. Replace your-token with your bot token. (https://discord.com/developers/applications)
3. Run node .
4. Invite the bot to your server and run !blahaj.

const { Client, GatewayIntent } = require('discord.js');

const client = new Client({
    intents: [
        GatewayIntent.GuildMessages,
        GatewayIntent.MessageContent,
    ]
});

client.on('messageCreate', async (message) => {
    if (message.content === '!blahaj') {
        const blahaj = await fetch('http://localhost:8080')
            .then((r) => r.json())
            .catch(() => null);

        if (!blahaj) {
            message.channel.send({ content: 'Failed to get a random blahaj' });
            return;
        }

        message.channel.send({ content: blahaj.url });
