+## Build and Run (without Docker)
+
+Building `nostr-rs-relay` requires an installation of Cargo & Rust: https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install
+
+Clone this repository, and then build a release version of the relay:
+
+```console
+$ git clone -q https://git.sr.ht/\~gheartsfield/nostr-rs-relay
+$ cd nostr-rs-relay
+$ cargo build -q -r
+```
+
+The relay executable is now located in
+`target/release/nostr-rs-relay`.  In order to run it with logging
+enabled, execute it with the `RUST_LOG` variable set:

+# Database Maintenance
+
+`nostr-rs-relay` uses the SQLite embedded database to minimize
+dependencies and overall footprint of running a relay.  If traffic is
+light, the relay should just run with very little need for
+intervention.  For heavily trafficked relays, there are a number of
+steps that the operator may need to take to maintain performance and
+limit disk usage.
+
+This maintenance guide is current as of version `0.8.2`.  Future
+versions may incorporate and automate some of these steps.
+
+## Backing Up the Database
+
+To prevent data loss, the database should be backed up regularly.  The
+recommended method is to use the `sqlite3` command to perform an
+"Online Backup".  This can be done while the relay is running, queries
+can still run and events will be persisted during the backup.
+
+The following commands will perform a backup of the database to a
+dated file, and then compress to minimize size:
+
+```console
+BACKUP_FILE=/var/backups/nostr/`date +%Y%m%d_%H%M`.db
+sqlite3 -readonly /apps/nostr-relay/nostr.db ".backup $BACKUP_FILE"
+sqlite3 $BACKUP_FILE "vacuum;"
+bzip2 -9 $BACKUP_FILE
+```
+
+Nostr events are very compressible.  Expect a compression ratio on the
+order of 4:1, resulting in a 75% space saving.
+
+## Vacuuming the Database
+
+As the database is updated, it can become fragmented.  Performing a
+full `vacuum` will rebuild the entire database file, and can reduce
+space.  Running this may reduce the size of the database file,
+especially if a large amount of data was updated or deleted.
+
+```console
+vacuum;
+```
+
+## Clearing Hidden Events
+
+When events are deleted, the event is not actually removed from the
+database.  Instead, a flag `HIDDEN` is set to true for the event,
+which excludes it from search results.  High volume replacements from
+profile or other replaceable events are deleted, not hidden, in the
+current version of the relay.
+
+In the current version, removing hidden events should not result in
+significant space savings, but it can still be used if there is no
+desire to hold on to events that can never be re-broadcast.
+
+```console
+PRAGMA foreign_keys = ON;
+delete from event where HIDDEN=true;
+```
+
+## Manually Removing Events
+
+For a variety of reasons, an operator may wish to remove some events
+from the database.  The only way of achieving this today is with
+manually run SQL commands.
+
+It is recommended to have a good backup prior to manually running SQL
+commands!
+
+In all cases, it is mandatory to enable foreign keys, and this must be
+done for every connection.  Otherwise, you will likely orphan rows in
+the `tag` table.
+
+### Deleting Specific Event
+
+```console
+PRAGMA foreign_keys = ON;
+delete from event where event_hash=x'00000000000c1271675dc86e3e1dd1336827bccabb90dc4c9d3b4465efefe00e';
+```
+
+### Deleting All Events for Pubkey
+
+```console
+PRAGMA foreign_keys = ON;
+delete from event where author=x'000000000002c7831d9c5a99f183afc2813a6f69a16edda7f6fc0ed8110566e6';
+```
+
+### Deleting All Events of a Kind
+
+
+```console
+PRAGMA foreign_keys = ON;
+delete from event where kind=70202;
+```
+
+### Deleting Old Events
+
+In this scenario, we wish to delete any event that has been stored by
+our relay for more than 1 month.  Crucially, this is based on when the
+event was stored, not when the event says it was created.  If an event
+has a `created` field of 2 years ago, but was first sent to our relay
+yesterday, it would not be deleted in this scenario.  Keep in mind, we
+do not track anything for re-broadcast events that we already have, so
+this is not a very effective way of implementing a "least recently
+seen" policy.
+
+```console
+PRAGMA foreign_keys = ON;
+TODO!
+```
+
+### Delete Profile Events with No Recent Events
+
+Many users create profiles, post a "hello world" event, and then never
+appear again (likely using an ephemeral keypair that was lost in the
+browser cache).  We can find these accounts and remove them after some
+time.
+
+```console
+PRAGMA foreign_keys = ON;

+# gRPC Extensions Design Document
+
+The relay will be extensible through gRPC endpoints, definable in the
+main configuration file.  These will allow external programs to host
+logic for deciding things such as, should this event be persisted,
+should this connection be allowed, and should this subscription
+request be registered.  The primary goal is allow for relay operator
+specific functionality that allows them to serve smaller communities
+and reduce spam and abuse.
+
+This will likely evolve substantially, the first goal is to get a
+basic one-way service that lets an externalized program decide on
+event persistance.  This does not represent the final state of gRPC
+extensibility in `nostr-rs-relay`.
+
+## Considerations
+
+Write event latency must not be significantly affected.  However, the
+primary reason we are implementing this is spam/abuse protection, so
+we are willing to tolerate some increase in latency if that protects
+us against outages!
+
+The interface should provide enough information to make simple
+decisions, without burdening the relay to do extra queries.  The
+decision endpoint will be mostly responsible for maintaining state and
+gathering additional details.
+
+## Design Overview
+
+A gRPC server may be defined in the `config.toml` file.  If it exists,
+the relay will attempt to connect to it and send a message for each
+`EVENT` command submitted by clients.  If a successful response is
+returned indicating the event is permitted, the relay continues
+processing the event as normal.  All existing whitelist, blacklist,
+and `NIP-05` validation checks are still performed and MAY still
+result in the event being rejected.  If a successful response is
+returned indicated the decision is anything other than permit, then
+the relay MUST reject the event, and return a command result to the
+user (using `NIP-20`) indicating the event was blocked (optionally
+providing a message).
+
+In the event there is an error in the gRPC interface, event processing
+proceeds as if gRPC was disabled (fail open).  This allows gRPC
+servers to be deployed with minimal chance of causing a full relay
+outage.
+
+## Design Details
+
+Currently one procedure call is supported, `EventAdmit`, in the
+`Authorization` service.  It accepts the following data in order to
+support authorization decisions:
+
+- The event itself
+- The client IP that submitted the event
+- The client's HTTP origin header, if one exists
+- The client's HTTP user agent header, if one exists
+- The public key of the client, if `NIP-42` authentication was
+  performed (not supported in the relay yet!)
+- The `NIP-05` associated with the event's public key, if it is known
+  to the relay
+
+A server providing authorization decisions will return the following:
+
+- A decision to permit or deny the event
+- An optional message that explains why the event was denied, to be
+  transmitted to the client
+
+## Security Issues
+
+There is little attempt to secure this interface, since it is intended
+for use processes running on the same host.  It is recommended to
+ensure that the gRPC server providing the API is not exposed to the
+public Internet.  Authorization server implementations should have
+their own security reviews performed.
+
+A slow gRPC server could cause availability issues for event
+processing, since this is performed on a single thread.  Avoid any
+expensive or long-running processes that could result from submitted
+events, since any client can initiate a gRPC call to the service.
