Usage

Build and run the application. Environment variables for configuration, see .env.template

Requests to /api/ routes require a Blobly-Authorization header containing the access key signed with its related secret key, using a $ separator like this: <access_key>$<signature>. The signature is done with hmac, using the sha256 hash function with a block size of 64.

I recommend intercepting /public/ with FreeNGINX for potentially better performance.
