Getting it running (beehaw.org)

I've just spent a few minutes building the project and getting it to run, I thought I'd mention some tidbits:

  1. The instance URL should not include a trailing /. Example invocation that worked for me: RUST_LOG=info ./target/release/tafkars-lemmy https://myinstance
  2. Once running I was able to access the API using curl -v http://localhost:8000/top.json or curl -v http://localhost:8000/r/mycommunity/top.json

Thanks again for working on this. I know the little "hackathon" fizzled a bit with only you starting off on something concrete, but I still think it spread a bit of awareness. I've been promoting it in threads where I can, but let me know if you prefer I didn't.

I just think if others promote it, you can't be accused of self-promotion. :-)
