Installation d'un serveur gopher

Gopher ?

Gopher, c'est lui :

Mais ce n'est pas ce qui nous intéresse actuellement sauf si un fan de « La croisière s'amuse » tombe sur cette page.

Gopher, c'est avant tout (je cite wikipedia) : « un monde parallèle à celui du Web (et créé à la même époque que ce dernier). ». C'est pas du web mais c'est de l'Internet, donc pourquoi pas faire ça chez Tetaneutral.net ?

C'est une sorte d'accès à des fichiers listés par une sorte d'index, la « gophermap ». C'est du simple, du minimaliste, mais ça fonctionne bien depuis des années.

Installation du daemon gopher.

Le daemon

Il existe plusieurs implémentations de gopher, j'ai choisi gophrier car le nom est rigolo (c'est vraiment le seul argument).

# apt-get install build-essentials cmake
# cd /usr/local/src
# wget http://download.tuxfamily.org/gophrier/gophrier-0.2.3.tar.gz
# tar xvf gophrier-0.2.3.tar.gz
# cd gophrier-0.2.3.tar.gz
# cmake .
# make
# cp gophrier /usr/local/bin

La configuration

Gophrier a un système de configuration simple : des fichiers dans un répertoire contenant une seule ligne.

# mkdir -p /etc/gophrier/gophermap
# echo 1 > /etc/gophrier/ipv6
# mkdir /var/log/gophrier
# echo /var/log/gophrier > /etc/gophrier/logdir
# echo /var/run/gophier.pid > /etc/gophrier/pidpath
# mkdir /var/gopher
# echo /var/gopher > /etc/gophrier/rootdir
# echo 1 > /etc/gophrier/gophermap/enable

Le script de démarrage

Lui, je l'ai fait à partir de /etc/init.d/skel et c'est donc /etc/init.d/gophrier

#! /bin/sh

        # and if the daemon is only ever run from this initscript.
        # If the above conditions are not satisfied then add some other code
        # that waits for the process to drop all resources that could be
        # needed by services started subsequently.  A last resort is to
        # sleep for some time.

Quick and dirty HTML to gopher

Vu que j'avais la flemme d'écrire le site tetaneutral.net à la main en texte, j'ai fait un script môche de conversion (/usr/local/bin/html2gopher.pl) :

#!/usr/bin/env perl

use strict;
use utf8;
use Text::Unidecode;

my $url = "http://www.tetaneutral.net/";
my $site = "tetaneutral.net";
my $port = 70;
my $dest = "/var/gopher";
my $map = "$dest/gophermap";

my $cat;

system "rm -f $dest/*";
open(MAP, ">$map");
open(DUMP, "elinks -dump -no-numbering -no-references -dump-charset iso-8859-1 -default-mime-type text/html $url |");
while(<DUMP>)
{
        s/\n$//;
        if(/^[^ ]/)
        {
                $cat = unidecode($_);
                if($cat)
                {
                        close DEST;
                        print MAP "0$cat        ";
                        $cat =~ s/( |')/_/g;
                        print MAP "$cat.txt     $site   $port\n";
                }
                open(DEST, ">$dest/$cat.txt");
        }

        if($cat)
        {
                print DEST "$_\n";
        }
}

close DEST;
close MAP;

Concrêtement, ce script dumpe http://www.tetaneutral.net/, extrait les catégories, en fait des fichiers textes et créé la gophermap du site gopher.

Il est exécuté via crontab, une fois par heure, pour suivre les mises à jour du site.
