gen-hosts

This script takes a list of URLs pointing to adblocker filters, hostsfiles, and domain lists. It then converts them into hostsfiles, and merges them together. The final result is located at ./hosts. It's useful for doing batch operations. You could run this script daily, for example, to ensure that your hosts file is always up-to-date.

Dependencies

A hostsblock (https://github.com/wwalexander/hostsblock) binary must be located in the same directory as gen-hosts, if you want to use adblocker filters.

Usage

gen-hosts file.list

Configuration

gen-hosts requires a textfile containing the URLs to blocklists.
This textfile should have one entry per line.
  • Blank lines are ignored.
  • Comments are prefixed by '#'.
  • Hostsfiles are prefixed by '@'.
  • Domain lists are prefixed by '&'.
  • All other lines are assumed to be adblock filters.
