Setup OGProxy for use in NodeBB

[DownPW]

Can you give procedure to update?

[phenomlab]

@DownPW Sure - you just need to copy the code from the below

ogproxy/function.js at main · phenomlab/ogproxy

Open Graph Proxy. Contribute to phenomlab/ogproxy development by creating an account on GitHub.

GitHub

And, of course, replace these two values with your own that you already have

var proxy = "FULL_FQDN_OF_YOUR_OGPROXY_HERE";
var apiKey = "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE";

No need to restart the OGProxy service

[DownPW]

Update done

Thanks for your work dude

[phenomlab]

@DownPW all good now?

[DownPW]

I will try chat ASAP
and it seems github private url doesn’t work but I think it’s normal because it’s a private repo

[phenomlab]

@DownPW that should still render but be replaced with substitute text and images. Anything in the browser console?

[DownPW]

nope nothing in log

And i Have this bug on the chat render (testing now)

[DownPW]

EDIT:

Nothing on, nodebb console but I have this on Browser Console :

it looks like the url is being misinterpreted. Symbols are appended to the URL.

Odd

[phenomlab]

@DownPW what’s the bug? CSS?

[DownPW]

[phenomlab]

@DownPW no, that’s URL encoding and supposed to look like that. If it were truly an issue, nothing would render.

[DownPW]

I don’t know my friend.

[phenomlab]

@DownPW I’ll check on your Dev server

resolve my problem with add this to my custom CSS for rendering in the chat on smartphone :

@media (max-width: 1010px) {
    [component="chat/message"] .card.card-preview {
    margin: 20px 0 20px 0;
    width: 100%;
    }
}

And I add this custom css code for fix a bug (for me ) when you do a mouse hover on the image and the edges are not rounded. This bug is seen much more on clear themes :

.card-image-container {
    max-width: 500px;
    max-height: 250px;
    overflow: hidden;
    border-top-left-radius: 0.375rem !important;
    border-top-right-radius: 0.375rem !important;
}

Edit:

And same things for rendering in posts on smartphone:

@media (max-width: 1010px) {
    .card.card-preview {
    margin: 20px 0 20px 0;
    width: 100%;
    }
}

@DownPW Good point ref the missing radius on image hover - I’ve updated the original post. Good spot !

I’d actually go one step further and change the width to 100% otherwise on the light themes you land up with an odd looking space between the card frame and the image

.card-image-container {
    max-width: 100%;
    max-height: 250px;
    overflow: hidden;
    border-top-left-radius: 0.375rem;
    border-top-right-radius: 0.375rem;
}

No problem dude, we are beta testers finally, we go back what we can and we propose the corrections if we find them

[phenomlab]

@DownPW thanks. Things look to be pretty stable to me. Haven’t heard from @dave1904 yet though

[DownPW]

yes it seems to be good.
It will need to watch perf on production with lot of link but It’s very cool

Question :

I imagine that we can change the 404 error image in the image directory of the plugin?

But are there any restrictions?
Oblige to use an image in webp or other formats are accepted?

[phenomlab]

@DownPW I don’t think you’ll see a performance hit as the rendering is handled client side

In terms of the 404 image, you can have whatever you want - you just need to replace the image itself, and then change the reference to it in the JS function - the path should be /images/404.webp.

As a side note, it might be worth setting a different file name, as nginx will cache it and you’ll see that same image every time (and not the new one) unless you restart the nginx service.

[DownPW]

Ok that’s very clear. thank you for all this my friend
