# Gopher (RFC 1436) Web Proxy

gopherproxy is a Gopher (RFC 1436) and Gemini (gopher://zaibatsu.circumlunar.space/1/~solderpunk/gemini/docs/) Web Proxy that acts as a gateway into Gopherspace/Geminispace by proxying standard Web HTTP requests to Gopher/Gemini requests of the target server.

gopherproxy is a fork of [https://github.com/prologic/gopherproxy](https://github.com/prologic/gopherproxy).

Demo: https://proxy.vulpes.one/


## Requirements

- **libvips:** Fast on-demand thumbnail generation


## Installation

```#!bash
$ go install git.vulpes.one/gopherproxy/...
```


## Usage

```#!bash
$ gopherproxy
```

Arguments:

- `-bind=<ip[:port]>`: The interface to bind to (default: "0.0.0.0:8000")
- `-uri=<uri>`: The default address to open in the proxy (default: "floodgap.com")
- `-robots-file=<file>`: robots.txt file to serve to protect Gopher sites from web crawlers (default: "robots.txt")
- `-robots-debug=<true|false>`: Print output about clients ignoring robots.txt (this includes regular browsers) (default: false)
- `-vips-concurrency=<n>`: Concurrency level of libvips (i.e. number of worker threads)


## Development

For development, the following libraries and programs are required in addition
to the previously listed ones:

- **SASS (sassc):** Compiling SCSS to CSS
- **TypeScript (tsc):** Compiling TypeScript to JavaScript
- **Terser (terser):** Minifying JavaScript
- **fonttools (pyftsubset):** Minifying fonts

Folder structure:

- **assets:** Assets that will be embedded into the executable using packr
- **css:** SCSS source files
- **fonts:** Fonts that will be minified
- **js:** TypeScript source files

I recommend using a git pre-commit hook that compiles all assets automatically:

```#!bash
#!/bin/sh

make build
git add -f assets
exit 0
```
