Ban API

[givewatts]

Is the ban API actually implemented?

None of the ban POST or GET calls appear to have any effect on Debian Trixie. They do not create, nor do they read from Banlist.yaml, even if it was previously created by banning someone from a client (pitbull in this case, which bans by IP by default). The following appear to have no effect:

• /ap i/v1/ban does not add to band list for username, nickname, or ip
• /api/v1/unban does not remove from ban list for the same
• /api/v1/banned/ips shows nothing even if the banlist is populated
• /api/v1/banned/usernames shows nothing even if the banlist is populated
• /api/v1/banned/nicknames shows nothing even if the banlist is populated

These all respond as if the actions were a success, although no changes occur.

All other API appear to work fine.

Hi @givewatts. At the moment the ban API only works when the optional Redis backend is used, but I have some mostly complete work to generalize this to work with either the file-based or Redis based backend. I'll wrap that up in the near future. Sorry for the confusion.

In the meantime, the Hotline client based banning is fully implemented, assuming you're using a client that supports it.

@givewatts This should be fixed in https://github.com/jhalter/mobius/releases/tag/v0.20.2
