# Automated Install
|
|
|
|
Designed For Raspberry Pi A+, B, B+, 2, 3B, and Zero (with an Ethernet/Wi-Fi adapter)
|
|
Works on most Debian and CentOS/RHEL based distributions!
|
|
|
|
1. Install Raspbian
|
|
2. Run the command below (downloads [this script](https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole/blob/master/automated%20install/basic-install.sh) in case you want to read over it first!)
|
|
|
|
## `curl -L https://install.pi-hole.net | bash`
|
|
|
|
### Alternative Semi-Automated install
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
wget -O basic-install.sh https://install.pi-hole.net
|
|
chmod +x basic-install.sh
|
|
./basic-install.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you wish to read over the script before running it, then after the `wget` command, do `nano basic-install.sh` to open a text viewer
|
|
|
|
Once installed, [configure your router to have **DHCP clients use the Pi as their DNS server**](http://pi-hole.net/faq/can-i-set-the-pi-hole-to-be-the-dns-server-at-my-router-so-i-dont-have-to-change-settings-for-my-devices/) and then any device that connects to your network will have ads blocked without any further configuration. Alternatively, you can manually set each device to [use the Raspberry Pi as its DNS server](http://pi-hole.net/faq/how-do-i-use-the-pi-hole-as-my-dns-server/).

|
## Technical Details
|
|
|
|
The Pi-hole is an **advertising-aware DNS/Web server**. If an ad domain is queried, a small Web page or GIF is delivered in place of the advertisement. You can also [replace ads with any image you want](http://pi-hole.net/faq/is-it-possible-to-change-the-blank-page-that-takes-place-of-the-ads-to-something-else/) since it is just a simple Webpage taking place of the ads.
|
|
|
|
### Gravity
|
|
|
|
The [gravity.sh](https://github.com/pi-hole/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 1.6 million entries](http://jacobsalmela.com/block-millions-ads-network-wide-with-a-raspberry-pi-hole-2-0) (if you decide to use the [mahakala list](https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole/commit/963eacfe0537a7abddf30441c754c67ca1e40965)).
|
|
|
|
## Web Interface
|
|
|
|
The [Web interface](https://github.com/jacobsalmela/AdminLTE#pi-hole-admin-dashboard) will be installed automatically so you can view stats and change settings. You can find it at:
|
|
|
|
`http://192.168.1.x/admin/index.php` or `http://pi.hole/admin`
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Whitelist and blacklist
|
|
|
|
Domains can be whitelisted and blacklisted using two pre-installed scripts. See [the wiki page](https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole/wiki/Whitelisting-and-Blacklisting) for more details ![Whitelist editor in the Web interface](http://i.imgur.com/ogu2ewg.png)
|
|
|
|
## API
|
|
|
|
A basic read-only API can be accessed at `/admin/api.php`. It returns the following JSON:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"domains_being_blocked": "136708",
|
|
"dns_queries_today": "18108",
|
|
"ads_blocked_today": "14648",
|
|
"ads_percentage_today": "80.89"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The same output can be achieved on the CLI by running `chronometer.sh -j`
|
|
|
|
## Real-time Statistics
|
|
|
|
You can view [real-time stats](http://pi-hole.net/faq/install-the-real-time-lcd-monitor-chronometer/) via `ssh` or on an [2.8" LCD screen](http://amzn.to/1P0q1Fj). This is accomplished via [`chronometer.sh`](https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole/blob/master/advanced/Scripts/chronometer.sh). ![Pi-hole LCD](http://i.imgur.com/nBEqycp.jpg)

## 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 is only for a clean install of a Debian based system, such as the Raspberry Pi.
