aMuleCMD: Update IPFilter
« on: January 07, 2010, 08:12:34 PM »
To be able to update the IPFilter using 'amulecmd'.

For example:
Code: [Select]
#!/bin/sh
amulecmd -c update ipfilter
Reason:
I wanna create a cron script to update the filter once a week.
either from the current URL in my config, or maybe you can also specify a url when issuing the cmd.

Sure. How?

At the moment we have reload ipfilter.
1) I could add reload ipfilternet
2) I could change it to reload ipfilter local and reload ipfilter net (breaking reload ipfilter).
I find 2) cleaner. update ipfilter doesn't fit in well imho.

(breaking reload ipfilter).
You don't necessarily have to. You can make reload ipfilter an alias of reload ipfilter local.

And you could maybe add a variant which accepts an url, such as reload ipfilter from <url>.

Marvellous! much appreciated  ;D

Now make it so it can only update if the file is newer then the existing one... (I like keeping you busy...:))
Reason:
Bluetack and other mirrors get hammed, it would be nice if we only updated when necessary.

edit*

I think the eMule mod MorphXT uses a system to only download when needed, might be helpful to look at the source code. (maybe)

Might be helpful if you look at the source code and give a hint how this is supposed to work.
I think this could only be done for a special site, but not generally. But I'm open for suggestions.  :)

Basically, there are two ways to do it.

1) The server checks if the file is newer:
We need to include in the request an "If-Modified-Since" header, and the server should reply with a "304 Not modified" response if the file is unchanged.

2) We check if the file is newer on the server:
We send a HEAD request to the server, and then check the "Last-Modified" response header.

Is it possible for multiple lists to be supported?

obviously they would have to be downloaded then merged together...

It would not be a big problem, but do you really think that's necessary?

ability to mix and match the filters would be very useful.
e.g.
using two or three lists:
level1.gz - anti-p2p corps
badpeers.gz - anti-p2p clients

ect..

Aren't these combined lists also available for download?

- I'd make it so that you can enter several URLs (separated by ';') instead of the single one.
