✨ DMARC_HTTPD 💅

okay so bestie, gather round, because dmarc_httpd is literally a whole web server for DMARC validation and report viewing and i'm obsessed 💖

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

it's an HTTP interface for:

  • local DMARC reports 🗂️
  • the DMARC validator service ✨

to start the HTTP server, you just go:

dmarc_httpd

and then you open a web browser and connect to <http://localhost:8080/>. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🦋

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

the HTTP server handles 4 types of requests, and yes we're going through all of them, no skipping 🫶

  • /

serves files stored in the perl share directory of the Mail::DMARC module. rn that means one HTML file and a handful of CSS and JS files for the report viewing feature. it's giving minimal but make it cute ✨

  • /dmarc/json/validate — DMARC validation requests

accepts a JSON encoded HTTP POST request. validates the request, performs a DMARC validation, and returns a JSON encoded result object. this is the API for non-perl applications to utilize Mail::DMARC. main character energy fr fr 👑

see the dmarc_http_client app for a usage example.

  • /dmarc/json/report

accepts AJAX requests from the browser and returns JSON encoded DMARC reports. 📊

  • /dmarc/json/row

accepts AJAX requests from the browser and returns JSON encoded DMARC report rows. 📈

an implementation that uses the http validation service is the included <dmarc_http_client> and another is the dmarc plugin in the <Haraka mail server|http://haraka.github.io>. slay 🌈

a Sample Report <http://search.cpan.org/dist/Mail-DMARC/example/report_cgi.png> is available which shows the web interface. it's implemented almost entirely in JavaScript, using jQuery, jQueryUI, and jqGrid. the way that stack is so iconic, iykyk 💅

web server settings are in the [http] and [https] sections of mail-dmarc.ini. don't forget them, bestie, or nothing's gonna work 😭
