# jake's keyserver
|
|
|
|
A pure Perl keyserver! When it receives a key, it does stuff to it then sticks it in postgres database.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
* 'Secret' upload path.
|
|
* Disable upload for secret, normal path, or both. For when you don't want people to upload keys.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
* Perl v5.38.0 or greater
|
|
* Relevant Mojo/Mojolicious modules and other Perl modules
|
|
* Postgresql server
|
|
* A dedicated user would be nice
|
|
|
|
### Install on your distro
|
|
Maybe it is packaged by your distro maintainers?
|
|
|
|
* Debian
|
|
```
|
|
apt install libmojolicious-perl libmojo-pg-perl
|
|
```
|
|
Note: the latest Perl at the time of writing on Debian stable is v5.36.x which doesn't have class support... I really wanted to use class(). Sorry!
|
|
So, you're likely better off installing perlbrew and having the dedicated user that will run this program compile and install v5.38.x.
|
|
|
|
### perlbrew (with Debian 12.8)
|
|
```
|
|
% sudo apt install perlbrew
|
|
% sudo -u jjakkekeyserver perlbrew init
|
|
% echo 'source ~/perl5/perlbrew/etc/bashrc' | sudo -u jjakkekeyserver tee -a /var/jjakkekeyserver/.profile
|
|
% sudo -u jjakkekeyserver perlbrew available # pick at least v5.38.x. Here I pick 5.40.x
|
|
% sudo -u jjakkekeyserver perlbrew install perl-5.40.0 # this *will* take a while
|
|
% sudo -u jjakkekeyserver perlbrew install-cpanm
|
|
% sudo chsh jjakkekeyserver -s /bin/bash # we will set this back to /bin/nologin later
|
|
% sudo -u jjakkekeyserver -i
|
|
jjakkekeyserver% PERL_CPANM_HOME=/tmp cpanm DBD::Pg # needs postgresql-server-dev-xx (on debian)
|
|
jjakkekeyserver% cpanm Mojolicious Mojo::Pg # AND postgres itself must be running
|
|
# DBD::Pg test wants to poke stuff, fails otherwise
|
|
jjakkekeyserver% perl ./keyserver # see whats broken or not.
|
|
# after you've made sure it works...
|
|
jjakkekeyserver% exit
|
|
% sudo chsh jjakkekeyserver -s /bin/nologin
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### postgres
|
|
Probably not needed info, but postgres here is version 15.
|
|
```
|
|
% sudo apt install postgresql postgresql-server-dev-xx
|
|
% sudo -u postgres psql # test if 'active' so to speak.
|
|
```
|
|
Follow instructions from 'Create relevent details for the database.'
|
|
|
|
### Install via cpan (or cpan-minus, considered way better by most)
|
|
```
|
|
cpanm Mojolicious Mojo::Pg Mojo::File Mojo::Util
|
|
```
|
|
Installing via cpan(m) will work because the Mojolicious devs are competent (to be more specific, they opt to recreate everything, that way if a dependency breaks because the author is ignoring issues or fucking DEAD there won't be permanently broken cpan repos that mojolicious depends on)
|
|
|
|
## To use
|
|
### Create a dedicated user to run this program
|
|
```
|
|
sudo useradd --system --create-home --home-dir /var/jjakkekeyserver --shell /bin/nologin jjakkekeyserver
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Create the config file
|
|
```
|
|
cp keyserver.conf.example keyserver.conf
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Create relevant details for the database.
|
|
An example that you may follow:
|
|
```
|
|
sudo -u postgres psql
|
|
postgres=# create database jjakkekeyserverdb;
|
|
postgres=# create user jjakkekeyserver with encrypted password 'password';
|
|
postgres=# grant all privileges on database jjakkekeyserverdb to jjakkekeyserver;
|
|
postgres=# \c jjakkekeyserverdb;
|
|
jjakkekeyserverdb=# grant all privileges on schema public to jjakkekeyserver;
|
|
jjakkekeyserverdb=# exit
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Start Program
|
|
```
|
|
sudo -u jjakkekeyserver hypnotoad -f keyserver ./keyserver.conf; # -f = starts in foreground
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Proxy
|
|
It's a good idea to proxy this program behind another dedicated program that listens on relevant ports: no TLS, 11371 and 80; with TLS, 11372 and 443.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
### GnuPG examples
|
|
```
|
|
gpg --keyserver hkp(s)://hostname --send-keys <keyid>
|
|
gpg --keyserver hkp(s)://hostname --search-keys <search string>
|
|
gpg --keyserver hkp(s)://hostname --recv-keys <keyid>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Web browser
|
|
http(s)://hostname
|
|
|
|
|
|
## SystemD
|
|
|
|
Make sure the service file actually makes sense for your use case; unless you've followed the guide in this README, it most certainly does not.
|
|
```
|
|
vim jjakkekeyserver.service
|
|
sudo cp jjakkekeyserver.service /etc/systemd/system
|
|
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
|
|
sudo systemctl start jjakkekeyserver.service
|
|
```
