Jabit Server
This is the server node using the Jabit library. You can run it by calling
java -jar jabit-server.jar
The interface will be available on port 9000, Bitmessage as usual on Port 8444.
There are still a few problems with the interface (the idea is to allow collecting and displaying broadcasts).
On first startup it will create a config file (allowing you to configure the Bitmessage port), a whitelist, a blacklist and a shortlist. If the whitelist isn't empty, the blacklist will be irrelevant. You can disable the feature by simply adding a valid Bitmessage address to the whitelist. For shortlisted addresses, only the last five broadcasts are displayed and stored (useful e.g. for time services or Q's Aktivlist).
Building / Development
You can build the jar file with
./gradlew build
As there is a problem with the build order, you'll need to do this twice.
To deploy on a Ubuntu server (might work on other Linuxes as well), create a file
/etc/init/jabit.conf with the following contents:
chdir /srv/jabit
exec su -s /bin/sh -c 'exec "$0" "$@"' jabit -- /usr/bin/java -jar jabit-server.jar --server.port=9000 > /dev/null
start on runlevel [2345]
stop on runlevel [^2345]
there must be a user jabit and a folder /srv/jabit where this user has write
permission containing jabit-server.jar.
