  • Show HN: Molerat – Small Web Protocol
    1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 6 Feb 2024
    One source is GitHub: https://github.com/zzo38/scorpion

    It is also available by Fossil: http://zzo38computer.org/fossil/scorpion.ui/dir?ci=tip

    It is also available by the Scorpion protocol itself at: scorpion://zzo38computer.org/specification.txt (Since you cannot read it without reading it to understand it first, here is a simple explanation: Use port 1517. Send R and then a space and then the full URL and then carriage return and line feed. Discard the first line of the result.)

    A GitHub repository is at: https://github.com/zzo38/scorpion

    The newest version of the specification document is also accessible by the Scorpion protocol itself (currently TLS is not implemented on the server side): scorpion://zzo38computer.org/specification.txt

    (Some of the other things other people have done are: Gemini, Spartan, and some others. Some of them (e.g. HYDIN, TerseNet) are not defined enough at this time, so it would be difficult to use them.) There are also other existing protocols, e.g. NNTP and IRC for communication between users, and Gopher for files and menus with hypertext.)

    Of course, different people have different ideas, and different goals and criticisms (I have some of my own criticisms too, but many other people have other criticisms of Gemini and these other protocols/file-formats, some of which may be found on Hacker News). You are free to make criticisms of Scorpion (including if any part of the document is unclear, or if you think some part is good or is not good), too.

    Actually, the repository there also does include a few other things; the "astroget" program (similar than curl) implements Scorpion protocol and also implements Gemini, Gopher, Spartan, NNTP, and HTTP (deliberately not implementing cookies and many other features of HTTP; if you need those features then you can use curl instead, anyways).
