# [nostr-rs-relay](https://git.sr.ht/~gheartsfield/nostr-rs-relay) This is a [nostr](https://github.com/fiatjaf/nostr) relay, written in Rust. It currently supports the entire relay protocol, and has a SQLite persistence layer. The project master repository is available on [sourcehut](https://sr.ht/~gheartsfield/nostr-rs-relay/), and is mirrored on [GitHub](https://github.com/scsibug/nostr-rs-relay). ## Features NIPs with relay-specific implementation requirements are listed here. - [x] NIP-01: Core event model - [x] NIP-01: Hide old metadata events - [x] NIP-02: Hide old contact list events - [ ] NIP-03: OpenTimestamps - [ ] NIP-09: Event deletion - [x] NIP-11: Relay information document ## Quick Start The provided `Dockerfile` will compile and build the server application. Use a bind mount to store the SQLite database outside of the container image, and map the container's 8080 port to a host port (7000 in the example below). ```console $ docker build -t nostr-rs-relay . $ docker run -it -p 7000:8080 \ --mount src=$(pwd)/data,target=/usr/src/app/db,type=bind nostr-rs-relay [2021-12-31T19:58:31Z INFO nostr_rs_relay] listening on: 0.0.0.0:8080 [2021-12-31T19:58:31Z INFO nostr_rs_relay::db] opened database "/usr/src/app/db/nostr.db" for writing [2021-12-31T19:58:31Z INFO nostr_rs_relay::db] DB version = 2 ``` Use a `nostr` client such as [`noscl`](https://github.com/fiatjaf/noscl) to publish and query events. ```console $ noscl publish "hello world" Sent to 'ws://localhost:8090'. Seen it on 'ws://localhost:8090'. $ noscl home Text Note [81cf...2652] from 296a...9b92 5 seconds ago hello world ``` A pre-built container is also available on DockerHub: https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/scsibug/nostr-rs-relay ## Configuration The sample [`config.toml`](config.toml) file demonstrates the configuration available to the relay. This file is optional, but may be mounted into a docker container like so: ```console $ docker run -it -p 7000:8080 \ --mount src=$(pwd)/config.toml,target=/usr/src/app/config.toml,type=bind \ --mount src=$(pwd)/data,target=/usr/src/app/db,type=bind \ nostr-rs-relay ``` Options include rate-limiting, event size limits, and network address settings. ## Reverse Proxy Configuration For examples of putting the relay behind a reverse proxy (for TLS termination, load balancing, and other features), see [Reverse Proxy](reverse-proxy.md). ## Dev Channel The current dev discussions for this project is happening at https://discord.gg/AEG5Z8AP.
