for various reasons i can't host this any more. @rvagg, @mathiasbynens, @Raynos or anyone else, would you be willing to help out?

this page has ~2k hits a month and could probably show some ads on its help page.

rvagg commented 8 years ago

yeah, I could stick it on the same server(s) as nodei.co pretty easily.

juliangruber commented 8 years ago

awesome! twitter dm'ed you

terinjokes commented 8 years ago

@rvagg i see this is now on the nodei.co server. any chance you can get a valid SSL certificate for it setup? Let's Encrypt, CloudFlare?

I just created package.land, which does exactly the same thing as ghub.io, but with a different implementation. I'm working on automating daily publishes of the all-the-package-repos module on which package.land depends, and plan to enable greenkeeper on the repo to keep the repo list reasonably up to date as new modules are published.

package.land is pretty darn fast. It's running on a Heroku Hobby dyno for $7/month, and I've got SSL set up on it. Pushes to the master branch of the repo are auto-deployed. I would be very happy to point the ghub.io domain at it and pay to keep it alive, if you all are up for that. I've been linking to ghub.io from all over the internet for several years now and maybe it's time to pay my dues :)

@zeke :heart:

I'm all for it

Sweet! Here's a rough plan. Tell me what you think:

invite @juliangruber and anyone else to @nice-registry org
rename nice-registry/package.land repo to nice-registry/ghub.io
retire the old juliangruber/ghub.io with a notice in the README
reimplement the CLI functionality function of the ghub module
set up semantic-release to autopublish ghub changes to npm
point ghub.io DNS to Heroku

I also think the analytics story is really interesting. Would be really cool if we publicized the package request stats somewhere. Maybe as a start we could just dump the request logs to a publicly readable S3 bucket or something..

juliangruber commented 6 years ago

For stats, we can expose this in another iteration.

juliangruber commented 6 years ago

What does @rvagg think?

rvagg commented 6 years ago

fine by me! looks good @zeke

zeke commented 6 years ago

Yay!
