# AodeRleay
_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

### Configuration
By default, all these values are set to development values
```env
HOSTNAME=localhost:8080
ADDR=127.0.0.1
PORT=8080
DEBUG=true
WHITELIST_MODE=false
VALIDATE_SIGNATURES=false
HTTPS=false
DATABASE_URL=
```
To run this server in product, you'll likely want to set most of them
```env
HOSTNAME=relay.my.tld
ADDR=0.0.0.0
PORT=8080
DEBUG=false
WHITELIST_MODE=false
