linkwallet

A self-hosted bookmark database with full-text page content search.

linkwallet uses the Bleve indexing library, providing excellent support for free-text queries over the content of all your bookmarked pages.

linkwallet indexes the page content, and automatically re-scrapes the pages periodically. Tags can be applied (though with the full-text search they are often not needed). Bookmarks can be easily managed, and can be imported or exported in bulk.

Bookmarks can be added with two clicks via the bookmarklet.

Feature list

• Simple cross-platform single binary deployment
  • or docker if you prefer
• Bookmarklet, single click to add a bookmark from any webpage
• Full-text search
  • Bookmark content is scraped and indexed locally
  • Page content periodically refreshed automatically
  • Interactively search across titles and content
  • Rippingly fast results, as you type
    • full text search ~30ms (over full text content of 600 bookmarks)
  • No need to remember how you filed something, you just need a keyword or two to discover it again
• Embedded database, no separate database required
• Extremely light on resources
• Easily export your bookmarks to a plain text file - your data is yours

Installation

Docker

• Copy the docker-compose.yml-sample to a directory somewhere
• Rename to docker-compose.yml and edit to your needs
  • In most cases, you only need to change the path to the /data mountpoint.
• Run docker-compose up -d

To upgrade:

• docker-compose pull
• docker-compose up -d

Packages (deb/rpm)

[not yet migrated to new goreleaser - please message me if you need packages]

Binary

• Download the appropriate binary from the releases page
• Install somewhere on your system
• Run ./linkwallet -db-path /some/path/xxxx.db where /some/path/xxxx.db is the location of your bookmarks database (will be created if it does not yet exist)

Source

• Checkout the code
• go build cmd/linkwallet/linkwallet.go

Using

linkwallet is a 100% web-driven app. After running, hit the web interface on port 8109 (docker using the sample docker-compose.yml) or 8080 (default on binary).

Change the port number by setting the PORT environment variable.

If you put linkwallet on a separate machine, or behind a reverse proxy, go into the config page and set the correct BaseURL parameter, or the bookmarklets will not work.

Roadmap

• More options when managing links
  • sorting
• More tag options
  • bookmarklet with pre-filled tags
  • search/filter on tags
