Overview
--------
This project is a very simple gemini server which only serves static files,
nothing else. It is meant to be generic so other people can use it.
Setup
=====
This is a modern Rust project with the default rust setup.
Security
========
In this project cyber security is very important because we are implementing
a server which reads arbitrary data from other computers and we need to make
sure that bad actors can't break it and read random things from outside
the directory, or even worse write things.
Testing
=======
We have UnitTests which should be kept up to date before committing any new code.
Fix every compiler warning before committing.
### Certificate Management
Development
- Generate self-signed certificates for local testing
- Store in `certs/` directory (gitignored)
- Use CN=localhost for development
Production
- Use Let's Encrypt or CA-signed certificates
- Store certificates outside repository
- Set appropriate file permissions (600 for keys, 644 for certs)
- Implement certificate renewal monitoring
- Never include private keys in documentation or commits
Deployment Security
- Certificate files should be owned by service user
- Use systemd service file with proper User/Group directives
- Consider using systemd's `LoadCredential` for certificate paths

# Pollux Gemini Server - Logging Implementation Complete
## Summary
Successfully implemented Apache/Nginx-style logging for the Pollux Gemini server with the following features:
### ✅ Implemented Features
1. **Plain Text Log Format** - As requested, compatible with standard log analysis tools
2. **Consistent Field Order** - `<IP> "<URL>" <status> ["<message>"]` for both success and error logs
3. **stdout/stderr Output** - Ready for systemd integration
4. **Client IP Extraction** - Extracts IP from TLS connections
5. **Gemini Status Codes** - Logs actual Gemini protocol status codes (20, 51, 59, etc.)
6. **Error Messages** - Detailed error descriptions for troubleshooting
### 📋 Log Format
**Access Logs (stdout):**
```
127.0.0.1 "gemini://jeena.net/" 20
192.168.1.100 "gemini://jeena.net/posts/vibe-coding.gmi" 20
```
**Error Logs (stderr):**
```
192.168.1.100 "gemini://jeena.net/posts/nonexistent.gmi" 51 "File not found"
192.168.1.100 "gemini://jeena.net/../etc/passwd" 59 "Path traversal attempt"
```
### 🖥️ systemd Integration
When run as a systemd service:
- **Access logs**: `journalctl -u pollux`
- **Error logs**: `journalctl -u pollux -p err`
- **Timestamps**: Automatically added by systemd
- **Rotation**: Handled by journald configuration
- **Filtering**: Standard journalctl filtering works
### 📁 Files Modified
- `src/logging.rs` - New logging module with RequestLogger
- `src/server.rs` - Integrated logging into connection handling
- `src/main.rs` - Added log level configuration
- `src/config.rs` - Added log_level config option
- `Cargo.toml` - Added tracing dependencies
### ⚙️ Configuration
```toml
log_level = "info" # debug, info, warn, error
```
### 🧪 Gemini Protocol Considerations
- **No User-Agent**: Gemini protocol doesn't have HTTP-style User-Agent headers
- **No Referer**: Not part of Gemini specification (privacy-focused design)
- **Client IP**: Extracted from TLS connection (best available)
- **Status Codes**: Uses actual Gemini protocol codes
### ✅ Testing
- All 14 tests pass
- Server compiles cleanly (no warnings)
- Logging verified to produce correct format
- Compatible with systemd journalctl
### 🚀 Ready for Production
The server now has production-grade logging that:
- Works with existing log analysis tools (grep, awk, logrotate)
- Integrates seamlessly with systemd
- Provides essential debugging information
- Follows Apache/Nginx conventions
- Supports the Gemini protocol appropriately
### Usage Examples
```bash
# View live logs
journalctl -u pollux -f
# Filter access logs
journalctl -u pollux | grep -v "ERROR"
# Filter error logs
journalctl -u pollux -p err
# Time range filtering
journalctl -u pollux --since "1 hour ago"
```
Implementation complete and ready for deployment!

# Pollux - A Simple Gemini Server
Pollux is a lightweight Gemini server for serving static files securely. It supports TLS, hostname validation, and basic directory serving.
## Requirements
Rust 1.70+ and Cargo.
## Building
Clone or download the source, then run:
```bash
cargo build --release
```
This produces the `target/release/pollux` binary.
## Running
Create a config file at `/etc/pollux/config.toml` or use `--config` to specify a path:
```toml
root = "/path/to/static/files"
cert = "certs/cert.pem"
key = "certs/key.pem"
host = "gemini.jeena.net"
port = 1965
log_level = "info"
```
## Certificate Setup
### Development
Generate self-signed certificates for local testing:
```bash
mkdir -p certs
openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout certs/key.pem -out certs/cert.pem -days 365 -nodes -subj "/CN=localhost"
```
Update `config.toml`:
```toml
cert = "certs/cert.pem"
key = "certs/key.pem"
```
### Production
Use Let's Encrypt for production:
```bash
sudo certbot certonly --standalone -d yourdomain.com
```
Then update config.toml paths to your certificate locations.
Run the server:
```bash
./pollux --config /path/to/config.toml
```
Or specify options directly (overrides config):
```bash
./pollux --root /path/to/static/files --cert cert.pem --key key.pem --host yourdomain.com --port 1965
```
Access with a Gemini client like Lagrange at `gemini://yourdomain.com/`.
## Options
- `--config`: Path to config file (default `/etc/pollux/config.toml`)
- `--root`: Directory to serve files from (required)
- `--cert`: Path to certificate file (required)
- `--key`: Path to private key file (required)
- `--host`: Hostname for validation (required)
- `--port`: Port to listen on (default 1965)
## Security
Uses path validation to prevent directory traversal. Validate hostnames for production use.
### Certificate Management
- Never commit certificate files to version control
- Use development certificates only for local testing
- Production certificates should be obtained via Let's Encrypt or your CA
## Testing
Run `cargo test` for unit tests. Fix warnings before commits.
