Description:
bound 1.0.1
bound pulls data from The Big Blocklist
Collection and generates an
unbound configuration file
that refuses lookup of the selected domains.
This is useful for blocking ads and malware, in much the same way as
pi-hole. You might prefer this method over
pi-hole if:
you’re already using unbound
you don’t love dnsmasq (which pi-hole is based on)
you don’t think a DNS resolver should require a web server
you distrust thousands of lines of bash to make major changes to your
system
If the above don’t apply to you, or you’re looking for an opinionated,
ad-blocking resolver with a pretty user interface and automated
installer, pi-hole is probably what you want.
Requirements
a gnu/linux or *bsd operating system
a working unbound installation
python3.6+ (for debian-like systems:
sudo apt-get install python3)
python3 requests library (for
debian-like systems: sudo apt-get install python3-requests)
Installation
python setup.py install
Usage
bound is intended to be used with blocklists from The Big Blocklist
Collection.
Run without any options, bound will:
download the latest “ticked” list from the Big Blocklist Collection
download all of the blocklists listed in the “ticked” list
parse, deduplicate, and assemble a list of domains from the retrieved
blocklists
remove any safelisted domains from the list
write /etc/unbound/unbound.conf.d/blocklist.conf to configure
unbound for blocking the listed domains
check the unbound configuration, and exit in case of any errors
restart unbound
To accomplish the above, you will probably need to run bound as the
root user.
There are options that support running as a non-root user, as well as
specifying the blocklist URL, an optional safelist URL, and local
blocklist and safelist files.
For a description of all the options, run bound -h.
