Customization (making domain + name your own)

[SEAPUNK]

I just noticed that some public assets have your instance's name and URL hardcoded into them, e.g. https://github.com/6f7262/kipp/blob/master/default/public/sharex

Especially with the Dockerfile setup, I think it'd be cool if there was a way to rebuild those assets with a custom domain name and app name (you know, like how mixtape.moe runs on Pomf, but their instance isn't called Pomf)

I had noticed that as well. It's also baked into the HTML. I was considering using go generate to build these assets but it would get quite complicated. The files can currently be edited manually but do you have any suggestions?

Hmm, not entirely sure yet. Right now my current idea is to have the entire public directory be templates and on startup loaded (and compiled with given config) into memory, which would eat into startup time, but would make it reliable across upgrades and changes in configs...

Alternatively, kipp could have a one-time "build" command that builds and writes public assets from templates, and the docker image would have a script that does that on startup every time before actually starting kipp.

I'll let you know if I have a properly good idea.
