Package ipblocklist contains default implementation of the IPBlocklist for mtg.

Please check documentation for mtglib.IPBlocklist interface to get an idea of this abstraction.

Functions

func NewNoop

func NewNoop() mtglib.IPBlocklist

NewNoop returns a dummy ipblocklist which allows all incoming connections.

Types

type Firehol

type Firehol struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Firehol is IPBlocklist which uses lists from FireHOL: https://iplists.firehol.org/

It can use both local files and remote URLs. This is not necessary that blocklists should be taken from this website, we expect only compatible formats here.

Example of the format:

# this is a comment
# to ignore
127.0.0.1   # you can specify an IP
10.0.0.0/8  # or cidr

func NewFirehol

func NewFirehol(logger mtglib.Logger, network mtglib.Network,
	downloadConcurrency uint,
	remoteURLs []string,
	localFiles []string) (*Firehol, error)

NewFirehol creates a new instance of FireHOL IP blocklist.

This method does not start an update process so please execute Run when it is necessary.

func (*Firehol) Contains

func (f *Firehol) Contains(ip net.IP) bool

Contains is given IP list can be found in FireHOL blocklists.

func (*Firehol) Run

func (f *Firehol) Run(updateEach time.Duration)

Run starts a background update process.

This is a blocking method so you probably want to run it in a goroutine.

func (*Firehol) Shutdown

func (f *Firehol) Shutdown()

Shutdown stop a background update process.
