* Add custom error variant This can be useful to propagate errors not conforming to available variants. Also to convert other errors in `crate::Error` without having explicit conversion defined, with `error.to_string()` * Implement `Tag` and define protocol serialization A Tag structure have been implemented with dedicated field types. Then custom serde serialization is derived to map the structure to current protocol json array as per NIP01. This adds compile and run time type checking to always ensure wrong string data are never stored or processed. With strict typed fields and custom serde derivation this checks can be done at time of serialization, saving work for internal handling of the actual data. tests for possible data violations are added, and gives good example of kind of errors it will through for different cases. * Use String for URL |

nostr-rs-relay
This is a 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, and is mirrored on GitHub.
Features
NIPs with relay-specific implementation requirements are listed here.
- NIP-01: Core event model
- NIP-01: Hide old metadata events
- NIP-02: Hide old contact list events
- NIP-03: OpenTimestamps
- NIP-09: Event deletion
- 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).
$ 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 to publish and query
events.
$ noscl publish "hello world"

$ noscl home

A pre-built container is also available on DockerHub: https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/scsibug/nostr-rs-relay
Configuration
The sample config.toml file demonstrates the
configuration available to the relay. This file is optional, but may
be mounted into a docker container like so:
$ 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.
