* the `database` file will be created if it does not already exist at the given location
* the `token` value is the access key to create and delete your messages (the authentication feature has not yet been implemented)
* copy `templates` and `public` folders to `WorkingDirectory` destination (see [Rocket deployment](https://rocket.rs/guide/v0.5/deploying/#deploying) for details)
