Blocking error

[LexterS999]

I want to block whole domain .io and .cn with regex support on config, but it doesn't work for me. Seems like I did something wrong on config, but it was copied from example config. Can you please provide right config for the blocking section to make it work?

P.S adding .io and .cn into blacklist.txt doesn't help me at all. And I'm using v0.17

I can't test the config right now, but from the top of my head, it should look like this:

upstream:
  externalResolvers:
    - 1.1.1.1
    - 9.9.9.9
blocking:
  blackLists:
    ads:
      - |
        /^.*\.io$/
        /^.*\.cn$/
  clientGroupsBlock:
    default:
      - ads
port: 53
httpPort: 4000
logLevel: info

The regex must be enclosed by /

Btw. You can test regex with this tool: https://regoio.herokuapp.com/

Is it ok to see that on log

INFO list_cache: file imported count=2 source=/^..io$/
Nov 16 12:30:04 blocky[17497]: /^..cn$/

[0xERR0R]

Yes, it is ok. This output should be replaced with something useful in case of regex

Cool, thanks. So this regex will block anything with ads/banner, right?

blackLists:
ads:
- /root/Blocky/blacklist.txt
- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eded333/TheFuckingList/main/pihole.txt
- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mtxadmin/ublock/master/hosts.txt
- |
/^..io$/
/^..cn$/
/^.\ads$/
/^.\banner$/

if you want to block every domain name which contains ads, it should be /.*ads.*/

[LexterS999]

And what config must be if I want to add some domain within regex format into whitelist? Same question for the whole domain and subdomain to the blacklist.

[0xERR0R]

This is the same format. Each regex must be enclosed with /. You can define regex either inline or in a separate text file

Any example please
