Featured on [MakeUseOf](http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/adblock-everywhere-raspberry-pi-hole-way/) and [Lifehacker](http://lifehacker.com/turn-a-raspberry-pi-into-an-ad-blocker-with-a-single-co-1686093533)!
## Automated Install
### Make sure to set a **static** IP address before running this!!
On a clean installation of Raspbian, you can run this command to **auto-install the Pi-hole**. Once installed, configure any device to use the Raspberry Pi as your DNS server and the ads will be blocked.
1. Install Raspbian
2. Set a **static** IP address
3. Run the command below
```curl -s "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jacobsalmela/pi-hole/master/automated%20install/basic-install.sh" | bash```
Once installed, **configure any device to use the Raspberry Pi as its DNS server and the ads will be blocked**. You can also configure your router's DHCP options to assign the Pi as clients DNS server so they do not need to do it manually.
A more detailed explanation of the installation can be found [here](http://jacobsalmela.com/block-millions-ads-network-wide-with-a-raspberry-pi-hole-2-0).

## Gravity
The [gravity.sh](https://github.com/jacobsalmela/pi-hole/blob/master/gravity.sh) does most of the magic. The script pulls in ad domains from many sources and compiles them into a single list of [over 900,000 entries](http://jacobsalmela.com/block-millions-ads-network-wide-with-a-raspberry-pi-hole-2-0).
## Whitelist and blacklist
You can add a `whitelist.txt` or `blacklist.txt` in `/etc/pihole/` and the script will apply those files automatically.
## Web Interface
I am also working on a [Web interface](https://github.com/jacobsalmela/AdminLTE#pi-hole-admin-dashboard) so you can view stats and change settings.
## Custom Config File
If you want to use your own variables for the gravity script (i.e. storing the files in a different location) and don't want to have to change them every time there is an update to the script, create a file called `/etc/pihole/pihole.conf`. In it, you should add your own variables in a similar fashion as shown below:

## Whitelist and blacklist
You can add a `whitelist.txt` or `blacklist.txt` in `/etc/pihole/` and the script will apply those files automatically.
### How It Works
A technical and detailed description can be found [here](http://jacobsalmela.com/block-millions-ads-network-wide-with-a-raspberry-pi-hole-2-0)!
## Other Operating Systems
This script will work for other UNIX-like systems with some slight **modifications**. As long as you can install `dnsmasq` and a Webserver, it should work OK. The automated install only works for a clean install of Raspiban right now since that is how the project originated.
