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.

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 (8090 in the example below).

$ docker build -t nostr-rs-relay .
$ docker run -p 8090:8080 --mount src=$(pwd)/nostr_data,target=/usr/src/app/db,type=bind nostr-rs-relay
[2021-12-12T04:20:47Z INFO  nostr_rs_relay] Listening on: 0.0.0.0:8080
[2021-12-12T04:20:47Z INFO  nostr_rs_relay::db] Opened database for writing
[2021-12-12T04:20:47Z INFO  nostr_rs_relay::db] init completed

Use a nostr client such as noscl to publish and query events.

$ noscl publish "hello world"
