# Domain list community

This project manages a list of domains, to be used as geosites for routing purpose in Project V.

## Purpose of this project

This project is not opinionated. In other words, it does NOT endorse, claim or imply that a domain should be blocked or proxied. It can be used to generate routing rules on demand.

## Usage example

Each file in the `data` directory can be used as a rule in this format: `geosite:filename`.

```json
"routing": {
  "domainStrategy": "IPIfNonMatch",
  "rules": [
    {
      "type": "field",
      "outboundTag": "Reject",
      "domain": [
        "geosite:category-ads-all",
        "geosite:category-porn"
      ]
    },
    {
      "type": "field",
      "outboundTag": "Direct",
      "domain": [
        "domain:icloud.com",
        "domain:icloud-content.com",
        "domain:cdn-apple.com",
        "geosite:cn",
        "geosite:private"
      ]
    },
    {
      "type": "field",
      "outboundTag": "Proxy-1",
      "domain": [
        "geosite:category-anticensorship",
        "geosite:category-media",
        "geosite:category-vpnservices"
      ]
    },
    {
      "type": "field",
      "outboundTag": "Proxy-2",
      "domain": [
        "geosite:category-dev"
      ]
    },
    {
      "type": "field",
      "outboundTag": "Proxy-3",
      "domain": [
        "geosite:geolocation-!cn"
      ]
    }
  ]
}
```

## Generate `dlc.dat` manually

- Install `golang` and `git`
- Clone project code: `git clone https://github.com/v2fly/domain-list-community.git`
- Navigate to project root directory: `cd domain-list-community`
- Install project dependencies: `go mod download`
- Generate `dlc.dat` (without `datapath` option means to use domain lists in `data` directory of current working directory):
  - `go run ./`
  - `go run ./ --datapath=/path/to/your/custom/data/directory`

Run `go run ./ --help` for more usage information.

## Structure of data

All data are under `data` directory. Each file in the directory represents a sub-list of domains, named by the file name. File content is in the following format.

```
# comments
include:another-file
domain:google.com @attr1 @attr2
keyword:google
regexp:www\.google\.com$
full:www.google.com
```

**Syntax:**

> The following types of rules are **NOT** fully compatible with the ones that defined by user in V2Ray config file. Do **Not** copy and paste directly.

* Comment begins with `#`. It may begin anywhere in the file. The content in the line after `#` is treated as comment and ignored in production.
* Inclusion begins with `include:`, followed by the file name of an existing file in the same directory.
* Subdomain begins with `domain:`, followed by a valid domain name. The prefix `domain:` may be omitted.
* Keyword begins with `keyword:`, followed by a string.
* Regular expression begins with `regexp:`, followed by a valid regular expression (per Golang's standard).
* Full domain begins with `full:`, followed by a complete and valid domain name.
* Domains (including `domain`, `keyword`, `regexp` and `full`) may have one or more attributes. Each attribute begins with `@` and followed by the name of the attribute.

## How it works

The entire `data` directory will be built into an external `geosite` file for Project V. Each file in the directory represents a section in the generated file.

To generate a section:

1. Remove all the comments in the file.
2. Replace `include:` lines with the actual content of the file.
3. Omit all empty lines.
4. Generate each `domain:` line into a [sub-domain routing rule](https://github.com/v2fly/v2ray-core/blob/master/app/router/config.proto#L21).
5. Generate each `keyword:` line into a [plain domain routing rule](https://github.com/v2fly/v2ray-core/blob/master/app/router/config.proto#L17).
6. Generate each `regexp:` line into a [regex domain routing rule](https://github.com/v2fly/v2ray-core/blob/master/app/router/config.proto#L19).
7. Generate each `full:` line into a [full domain routing rule](https://github.com/v2fly/v2ray-core/blob/master/app/router/config.proto#L23).

## How to organize domains

### File name

Theoretically any string can be used as the name, as long as it is a valid file name. In practice, we prefer names for determinic group of domains, such as the owner (usually a company name) of the domains, e.g., "google", "netflix". Names with unclear scope are generally unrecommended, such as "evil", or "local".

### Attributes

Attribute is useful for sub-group of domains, especially for filtering purpose. For example, the list of `google` domains may contains its main domains, as well as domains that serve ads. The ads domains may be marked by attribute `@ads`, and can be used as `geosite:google@ads` in V2Ray routing.
