I’d like to add a plugin (and eventually share it once the bugs are out) that uses either Net::CIDR::Lite to allow manual entry of IP-based blacklists for known offending address blocks, or else using the Geo::IP module to blacklist based on the country or ISP.
It would need to expose parts of the API depending on how it detects the presence of modules, I suppose. Not sure if it’s worth making run-time detection of the Geo::IP licenses and databases do the same. Is there a prototype Plugin that I could use for doing parsing/looking up the URI’s hostname? Since I’m using a local database without network access, it could happen synchronously… Thanks, -Philip
