AodeRelay

A simple and efficient activitypub relay

Usage

To simply run the server, the command is as follows

$ ./relay

To add domains to the blocklist, use the -b flag and pass a list of domains

$ ./relay -b asonix.dog blimps.xyz

To remove domains from the blocklist, simply pass the -u flag along with -b

$ ./relay -ub asonix.dog blimps.xyz

The same rules apply for whitelisting domains, although domains are whitelisted with the -w flag

$ ./relay -w asonix.dog blimps.xyz
$ ./relay -uw asonix.dog blimps.xyz

Whitelisted domains are only checked against incoming activities if WHITELIST_MODE is enabled. Blocks can be published in the nodeinfo metadata by settings PUBLISH_BLOCKS to true
