b32lookup

Tool to convert hostname, b32, b64 from addressbooks. Downloads hosts.txt files from a list of registrars into /i2phosts (relative to script directory) with -up. Checks for discrepancies between registrars and duplicates. Has shortcuts for notbob tools for newhost and viewing status of eepsites.

On first run it makes .settings in same directory, some settings can be changed by the script like -sdef reg to set the default addressbook to reg. To add sites to watch_list or more addressbook subscriptions edit .settings.

Get / Run

There are no outside dependencies besides python, just download lookup.py:

curl --retry 5 -x http://127.0.0.1:4444 -O http://git.simp.i2p/simp/b32lookup/raw/branch/main/lookup.py

Then you can run commands as python3 lookup.py <command>

You can run -ex which will allow running commands as ./lookup <command>

curl --retry 5 -x http://127.0.0.1:4444 -O http://git.simp.i2p/simp/b32lookup/raw/branch/main/lookup.py && python3 lookup.py -ex

Hostname | b32 | b64 Conversion

Accepts hostname, b32, or b64 and gives the other 2. Displays other hostnames if any others were registered with same b32 (like git.i2p and git.community.i2p). Needs host.txt file in /i2phosts. Can get by running -up

Example:

python3 lookup.py -hn simp.i2p

Registrar Discrepancy | Duplicates

Download hosts.txt files first with

python3 lookup.py -up

Then for discrepancies:

python3 lookup.py -chk

For duplicates:

python3 lookup.py -dup

Unique hostnames | Subscriptions

Show subscriptions with

python3 lookup.py -subs

To see uniqe hostnames, after -up do

python3 lookup.py -all

This combines host.txt files from all registrars. Order the registrars are given in .settings is the priority.

Notbob

New sites

python3 lookup.py -new

Status of watch list

python3 lookup.py -st

watch_list is set by editing .settings.

To adjusts the refresh time:

python3 lookup.py -swatch <seconds>
