b is a minimalistic bookmark manager for your own server. Written in PHP. Bookmarks are stored in a sqlite database. Features:

• filtering
• tagging
• automatic fetching of page title
• infinite scrolling (optional)
• bookmarklet
• multiple users

• PHP 5.6+
• PHP module sqlite
• PHP module curl

• Copy all repository files to a directory accessible by the webserver-user, like /var/www/b
• Move config.template.php to config.php and edit it
  • baseDir is the directory where the sqlite dbs are stored, e.g. /var/bookmarks/. The directory must be readable and writeable by the webserver-user
  • baseUri is the base uri's relative path param, e.g. /b/ if the website is accessible via http://example.com/b/. Or use / for http://bookmarks.example.com/ for example, if you want to have a dedicated subdomain for the service.
• Create a new user-account simply by creating a new directory in baseDir: mkdir /var/bookmarks/peter/

• If you want your bookmarks to be accessible under their own subdomain like http://bookmarks.example.com/, add a virtual host to your httpd.conf:

   <VirtualHost *:80>
     ServerName bookmarks.example.com
     DocumentRoot "/var/www/b"
  
     <Directory />
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
       RewriteRule . index.php [L]
  
       # Password protection            
       AuthType Basic
       AuthName b
       AuthUserFile /opt/bookmarks/htusers
       Require user peter
     </Directory>
   </VirtualHost>
  

• Create a password file and restart apache. If you don't want to use a password, remove the "Password protection" part from the virtual host configuration.

   htpasswd -c /opt/bookmarks/htusers peter
   apachectl restart
  

• If you want to use a localhost fake domain, add the host to your /etc/hosts file:

   127.0.0.1 bookmarks.example.com
  

• Peter's bookmarks should now be accessible via http://bookmarks.example.com/peter

• Run a configuration-check via http://bookmarks.example.com/index.php?configtest

• To add a new bookmark, simply paste it into the input field and press return. the url may be followed by hash tags, e.g. http://example.com #example #bla #wurst
• The website's title is automatically fetched and the bookmark is added to the database.
• Edit title by double clicking it. This opens a prompt-dialog where you can edit the title. Enter '-' (minus sign) to remove an entry.
• To edit the URL, double click beside the link.
• The input field can also be used to filter bookmarks. Filtering is done with a full-text search on all titles. Search terms are separated by spaces and joined with AND.

If you have a massive amount of bookmarks and you don't want to load them all at once, you can activate infinite scrolling. This will load a limited amount on bookmarks initially and load more when you scroll to the bottom of the page. Activate infinite scrolling by adding 'infiniteScrolling' => 200 to your config.php. Replace 200 with the number of bookmarks you want to load each time you hit the bottom.

Visit /[user]/bookmarklet to access the user's bookmarklet, e.g. http://bookmarks.example.com/peter/bookmarklet. (Thanks to nibreh for the suggestion!)
