docker-build-push / build-push-deploy (push) Successful in 33s
Build/test/push now runs as .gitea/workflows/docker-build-push.yml, pushing to gitea.blairhaus.net/pmb/finger and auto-deploying to mammut and bsd on every push to main, since GitHub is no longer in use. Removes the now-dead .github workflows, .codecov.yml, and their README badges.

# finger
|
|
|
|
A silly finger service written in c++20
|
|
|
|
# Compiling:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
meson setup builddir
|
|
meson compile -C builddir
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will create a static linked binary called `builddir/finger`. You can copy this to your remote server if you're going to run it via docker.
|
|
|
|
# Building a Dockerfile
|
|
|
|
Create a `Dockerfile` with the contents:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# Use a minimal base image
|
|
FROM alpine:latest
|
|
|
|
# Copy the local binary to the container
|
|
COPY finger /usr/local/bin/finger
|
|
|
|
# Make the binary executable
|
|
RUN chmod +x /usr/local/bin/finger
|
|
|
|
# Create the directory for user data
|
|
RUN mkdir -p /var/finger/users
|
|
|
|
# Expose port 79 (finger protocol)
|
|
EXPOSE 79
|
|
|
|
# Set the binary as the default command
|
|
CMD ["finger"]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And execute `docker build -t finger-app .`
|
|
|
|
# Running
|
|
|
|
Create a `docker-compose.yml` file:
|
|
```
|
|
version: '3.8'
|
|
|
|
services:
|
|
finger:
|
|
build: .
|
|
ports:
|
|
- "79:79"
|
|
volumes:
|
|
- ./users:/var/finger/users
|
|
restart: unless-stopped
|
|
```
|
|
and execute `docker compose up -d`
|
|
|
|
# Setting your status
|
|
within the `./users` directory, create a file named after the user you wish to have a response. That's it!
|
|
|
|
# Abuse protection
|
|
Most traffic on port 79 is not finger at all -- HTTP and SIP probes, TLS
|
|
handshakes, and username-guessing scanners. None of these resolve to a plan
|
|
file, so the daemon treats any request that fails to read a plan as an
|
|
"offense" and timestamps it against the source IP. When an IP records more than
|
|
3 failures within a rolling 24-hour window, its connections are dropped
|
|
(without being read or answered) until those failures age back out of the
|
|
window. Legitimate lookups that hit a real plan never count against an IP. All
|
|
state is in-memory; thresholds live in `BanTracker::Config` (`ban.hpp`).
