Registration email domain blacklisting

@Raccoon -- we can probably take over this plugin, it seems quite popular

What's the problem with it, doesn't start?

@julian yes it doesn't start. When I click to access the settings, nothing happens. The progress bar stops to 2/3 and the circle turns indefinitly.

There is this error on console, the plugin doesn't load the template

@Maleficent heureusement que tu as des réflexes de développeuse

Le plugin n'est plus à jour et donc ne suit pas les nouvelles updates

Il est testé pour nodebb 1.4.5 maximum... pour le moment
Du coup le chemin de la librairie n'est pas bon

@Raccoon @Maleficent

The plugin is tested and seems to work fine. In your case @Maleficent, you need to run ./nodebb build after activating the plugin.

I sent over a PR to fix up a typo in the library, but that version (with the typo) was never published to npm, so the existing version on npm should still work with latest NodeBB.

@julian Have you tested recently with isTempMail enabled? No API token required? I was expecting to need one but seems I am missing something?

In any case, it is blocking manually added domains but does not appear to be blocking via isTempMail domains, e.g. an temp-mail.org address, and I did not find anywhere to add my isTempMail API token.

I am still on 1.12.

TIA.

Did a bit more investigating. Plugin is definitely broken using isTempMail API. Evidently when first coded the public api was free and did not require an api key.

{"error":"no_token","error_description":"Please add API token to your request."}

I am a freak and do not code Javascript. Given that, I do not grok anywhere in this code that generates an opportunity to provide one:

https://github.com/Annihil/nodebb-plugin-email-blacklist/blob/master/library.js

Query url needs to look like this:

https://www.istempmail.com/api/check/YOUR-isTempMail-API-KEY/example.com (or can also handle full [email protected]).

Update: I can confirm the URL string above works via manual submission, but not via simple edit of nodebb-plugin-email-blaclist/library.js's isTempMail function's path.

[gotwf]

Well looks like I was an ID10T on this one. npm install pulls the original Annihil version cuz that is where package.json tells it to grab it from.

1. Manual installation of Julian's/NodeBB 3rd Party forked version, available here: https://github.com/NodeBB-Community/nodebb-plugin-email-blacklist

2. Coupled with my URL query string update above and ... voila! Now works dandy w/both manually added addresses and istempmail.org API key.

The function isTempMail's path var needs to be thusly:

path: '/api/check/Your-API-Key-Here/' + email

Or maybe I neglected the trailing slash first time around. In any event, geronimo, there ya' go.

hi @julian , will this plugin be updated to work with NodeBB 1.19.0 ?

https://github.com/NodeBB-Community/nodebb-plugin-email-blacklist

currently, it does not prevent registration addresses from the blacklisted domains...

Additionally, the original repository is gone but the broken link is in the package.json, I guess it makes sense to update that too. Thanks in advance.

Usually opencollective is used to finance the support of third-party plugins. Without such support, it is impossible for a small team to support all plugins.
Example:

Flarum - Open Collective

Flarum is next-generation forum software that is simple, fast & free.

@baris, what do you think about it? Open an account for podderki third-party plugins and nodebb in general.
