This code is forked from https://github.com/adtac/relevant-xkcd, with the goal of generally tidying up the project.
You know how the old saying goes - "There's an XKCD for that!"
Check out a hosted version of the project here.
This is a search engine + crawler backend for XKCD comics. There's a simple API to search for comics. This will search through titles, transcript, and discussion. The comics list is automatically refreshed in the background every 6 hours (even though Randall updates less frequently - every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday).
The lovely folks at ExplainXKCD have a detailed explanation, transcript and everything in between for every XKCD comic ever. Searching that is probably a good idea to get a relevant XKCD.
At the moment the docker does not work.
The server is dockerized. To get an instance running on port 8080 of your host machine, simply do:
$ docker pull adtac/relevant-xkcd:latest
$ docker run -d -p 8080:8080 adtac/relevant-xkcd:latestCopyright (C) 2017 Adhityaa Chandrasekar
