it should only do that once for each new socket connection, which should stay open for multiple requests - this depends on how the client is written though would make life a lot easier if the relay also had a multiplexed socket, one auth, many client worker threads no problem

The spec said send false or close and another auth challenge, unless I read it wrong. The very first thing I send is auth but clients usually connect and send before checking.. I could modify to just do one auth challenge ya..

send ["OK",false,"auth-required: blah"] should be enough, i forget exactly, but the client has to expect that and queue the request to send it out after doing the auth and getting the OK true i forget how the CLOSE envelope plays into it, but i do know that replicatr does it correctly, lemme dig it up... no, it's CLOSED envelope: https://github.com/Hubmakerlabs/replicatr/blob/main/app/auth.go and then after that you send the AUTH envelope with the challenge to the client and here is my client side code, this shoud help the client devs a bit at least: this is a simple auth tester: https://github.com/Hubmakerlabs/replicatr/blob/main/cmd/authr/authr.go this shows how it's used in a client (this one can auth to two relays and pull from one and push to the other): https://github.com/Hubmakerlabs/replicatr/blob/main/cmd/ingestr/app/ingest.go of course nobody pays attention to me, but i've actually written both sides of it, fiatjaf wrote some fragments of parts of it but i wasn't able to find anything that actually demonstrated how to string it together yes, this works with coracle btw on the client side hell, replicatr works perfectly as a relay except after about 24 hours it has some weird resource leak that eats CPU that's why it isn't in production

if you can find it and fix it i'll pay a reasonable amount of sats for doing it, it's embarrassing that i couldn't find that bastard thing... it's instrumented with profiling and runtime configuration settings and everything, drove me nuts

ah crap, i better fix that tomorrow not sure why you aren't getting them from the go module proxy cache tho yeah, tomorrow... i'm currently working on a count encoder that appends to a buffer you pass it so you can reuse the buffer

i'm getting that done now btw, just running tests after moving all the required content into place so it's a monorepo then i'll check that everything in cmd and the root build correctly also, won't be long (one of the tests runs for a while haha)

it's done btw, you should now be able to do like go install github.com/Hubmakerlabs/replicatr/cmd/ingestr and have it pull and build it, anyhow, it's there, i needed to fix it, i forgot it was totally broken

go install github.com/Hubmakerlabs/replicatr/cmd/ingestr@v1.2.17 better still, that is the actually what i just built now me@iox:/src/github.com/Hubmakerlabs/replicatr$ ingestr Usage: ingestr [--nsec NSEC] [--since SINCE] [--limit LIMIT] [--interval INTERVAL] [--pause PAUSE] [--follows FOLLOWS] DOWNLOADRELAY UPLOADRELAY error: downloadrelay is required

see my response, i wrote all this stuff, i know it works, it auths on nostrudel and coracle, just the damn resource bug it's at https://github.com/Hubmakerlabs/replicatr in cmd/ingestr for client side, anyway, just check my other note here: nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzqnyqqft6tz9g9pyaqjvp0s4a4tvcfvj6gkke7mddvmj86w68uwe0qqszeyrlj2mcvggjzp2y9np52eyq4yjxu09wzzyret7zvqxskflcthsv9prp8

I will need to fire up mitmproxy to see the traffic on the wire. As far as i can tell, the code is supposed to be sending false like this falseString := fmt.Sprintf(`["OK","%s","false","auth-required: you must auth"]`, event.ID)

Of course, my own client doesn't send an event pre auth, so I would need one that does and inspect it's traffic. 😂 also nostr:nprofile1qqsyvrp9u6p0mfur9dfdru3d853tx9mdjuhkphxuxgfwmryja7zsvhqpzamhxue69uhhv6t5daezumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcscpyug said he may have found a problem in amethyst where it wasn't retrying the event when it received a pre-auth "false". So... I still will try your tool at your leisure man, thanks for the halp! 💎

https://github.com/Hubmakerlabs/replicatr this should build for you now, i pulled in all those dependencies and made it a monorepo was pretty funny running it again... had all the configurations and a database already sitting on my disk and just fires right up anyhow, please reply if you get any errors with it now, i'm pretty sure i didn't exclude anything in the allowlist .gitignore but i buggered up the precomps in my revised embed version elsewhere (yeah, this whole mess happened because i kept getting git bugs and gave up self hosting after i had mleku.net/reponame as i wanted using legit but gd fkn git buggerization, haven't heard from the legit dev yet about a fix on it i filed an issue)

did you verify that it is a "CLOSED" envelope its supposed to send first then "AUTH" with challenge after? (and expect an AUTH with signed event containing challenge... in the content field??? i think? no, i think in the tag after "challenge")
