How scraper keys work

Come up with a random passphrase:

not this, this is a bogus passphrase for documentation

Run that through the hash-api-key subcommand of any ptth_relay instance:

ptth_relay hash-api-key

You'll get a hash like this:

RUWt1hQQuHIRjftOdgeZf0PG/DtAmIaMqot/nwBAZXQ=

Make sure that gets into the relay's config file, ptth_relay.toml:

[[scraper_keys]]
name = "shudder_mummy"
not_before = "2021-08-27T19:20:25-05:00"
not_after = "2031-08-27T19:20:25-05:00"
hash = "RUWt1hQQuHIRjftOdgeZf0PG/DtAmIaMqot/nwBAZXQ="

Use curl to like, try it out:

curl \
--header "X-ApiKey: not this, this is a bogus passphrase for documentation" \
