Whois server build on top of ruby EventMachine.
Before demo install, please ensure you have rbenv and postgres installed.
git clone https://github.com/internetee/whois.git
cd whois
bundle
cp config/database-example.yml config/database.yml # and edit it
cp env-example .env # and edit it according to your needs
# create postgres database, example:
# create database whois owner whois encoding 'UTF-8' LC_COLLATE 'et_EE.utf8' LC_CTYPE 'et_EE.utf8' template template0;
ruby whois.rb run # or start for daemon, other commands: status start stop run --help
sudo apt-get install whois
whois hello.ee -h localhost -p 1043 # by default whois run on port 43
You should receive
Hello from whois server!
If you have any issues you can try run whois server on front:
ruby whois.rb stop # stops running whois
ruby whois.rb run # runs whois server in terminal for debug
ruby whois.rb --help # for other commands
Before production installation, please ensure you have rbenv and postgres installed.
At your local machine:
git clone https://github.com/internetee/whois.git
cd whois
bundle
gem install mina # or any other deploy tool
cp config/deploy-example.rb config/deploy.rb # and edit it
mina pr setup
Add init script and edit it:
sudo cp config/whois-init-example /etc/init.d/whois
sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/whois
Start server
sudo /etc/init.d/whois start
Request logs are going to syslog, however all daemon related errors are going to log directory because daemon lib currently not supporting syslog, probably in future it will happen.
