After a few year using Staticman I decided to disable it. It was pretty clear that Staticman is not secure enough. The Staticman sends http post message via my Heroku app that runs the Staticman backend. This backend pushes pull requests via a bot to my git repository.

This post message is protected by Google recaptcha v2. I had this setup for a year without any issues. Until, out of the blue, i received a big amount of pull requests. It was pretty clear that a Russian spam bot was plaguing the whole setup. The pull requests was in russian that is. I was pretty surprised that the Google recaptcha v2 wasn’t enough to keep spam out.

After finishing the overall conversion from Jekyll to Hexo, i decided to use Staticman.net as my commenting system.

Staticman is based around creating Git commits, when a user post a comment. Via a webhook, a bot with access to my Git repository will commit/push the comment and Netlify will start a blog generation/deployment.

New computer calls for installation of tools and projects. I remembered installing Jekyll, was a not so easy task when using Windows. So i decided it was time to look for alternatives.

I knew there was all kinds of new generators out there, i was looking at multiple at once and decided to go with one. I used this website www.staticgen.com.

My choice became Hexo.io.

Again long break from posting anything on this blog, but finally i find the time and will to do so.

Project status:

The biggest "news" if you will, are that i finished my Counter-strike project to a satisfing state, atlease for me.

I will not go into details on what i have done at this point. Sadly i don’t feel like living up to my initial promise on multiple posts on the project.

If you have any questions though, feel free to post a comment on this post :-)

After a long pause of posting on my blog, i decided to make a post about the changes i made to my Counter-Strike Global Offensive server list application.

The biggest changes i have made, has been updating Angular from AngularJs to Angular6. I have changed the layout, and made everything responsive. The backend is still the same but with a bunch of tweaks and fixes. I have also added the possibility to login with Steam. I decided to not keep login information and put the responsiblity on Steam. I this that make sense as this is a server list of a Steam game.
