This adds in some back end improvements for better debugging. It also
allows you to access the Web interface, while you are connected to the
Pi-hole, which resolves#31
Since the version of lighted in Jessie moved the default folder to
/var/www/html, I am going to make it the same for wheezy for better
compatibility.
Also removed spaces
Due to so many users having issues with this list blocking legitimate
domains such as microsoft.com, apple.com, xkcd.com and more, I am
turning it off by default. While this drastically reduces the amount
of domains blocked, ad-blocking performance still seems to function
quite well.
Long-time users can simply uncomment the list, but this will make it so
new users have a more pleasant experience.
If you already have the mahakala list, you will need to remove it first
with this command:
sudo rm /etc/pihole/list.2.adblock.mahakala.is.domains
There are a few other lists I am looking at including, but this will
provide an immediate fix.
I'm not 100% sure if you can add multiple IP addresses to one domain on
a single line, so I just broke it up into two. It makes the file
bigger and longer, but I'll have to see how it works
Due to users having issues with the IP not being entered properly, I am restoring the original way to store `piholeIP` until a better solution can be formed.
This will increase the swap file to 500MB before downloading the lists.
Most of the issue comes from the mahakala list, which is so large. If
no swap file is found, one is created.
Prepend "^" to start of latentWhitelist.txt lines.
The -x switch requires a full line match of the regexp, where as -w
will try to find the match somewhere in the line, looking for work
breaks. Combined with turning the whitelist lines into full regexps,
this results in significantly faster parsing.
Having "^" prepended to the lines also keeps false whitelisting from
occuring, such as the following example:
If whitelist.txt contains "google.com" it would whitelist many other
sites that end in "google.com" as long as there is a non-word
character preceeding the google (such as "-", or ".").
manually running gravity.sh
This will print "Getting $domain list... " for each domain, followed
by either "Done" if data was received and validated, or "Skipping
list because it does not have any new entries" if no updates were
needed.
I also wanted to replace the for loop iterating over indices with
something like:
`for url in $sources[@]}`
It made the use of `$i` in the save location more annoying though.
