Nepenthes is a tarpit intended to catch web crawlers. It is developed by Aaron B. For more information about Nepenthes, please see:
https://zadzmo.org/code/nepenthes/
This snap package is maintained by Oliver Calder, and is not affiliated with nor endorsed by the upstream Nepenthes project or its author.
## Configuration
By default, nepenthes listens on port 8893. To change this or other
configuration settings, edit the config file:
/var/snap/nepenthes/current/config.yaml
Please see the upstream documentation for full configuration options:
https://zadzmo.org/code/nepenthes/
## Training
Nepenthes uses a markov corpus to populate generated pages with words. It is recommended that you provide training data to train the markov babbler. This can be done by sending arbitrary data to nepenthes, for example:
cat /path/to/file.txt | nepenthes.train-markov-corpus
If training is interrupted, you can skip lines you have already trained. For example, to skip the first 150 lines of the training file:
cat /path/to/file.txt | nepenthes.train-markov-corpus 150
If you wish to delete the markov corpus and start again, run:
nepenthes.delete-markov-corpus
## License
This snap package is licensed under the MIT license, the same license as the Nepenthes project.

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
Snap is available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8 and RHEL 7, from the 7.6 release onward.
The packages for RHEL 7, RHEL 8, and RHEL 9 are in each distribution’s respective Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repository. The instructions for adding this repository diverge slightly between RHEL 7, RHEL 8 and RHEL 9, which is why they’re listed separately below.
The EPEL repository can be added to RHEL 9 with the following command:
sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-9.noarch.rpm
sudo dnf upgrade
The EPEL repository can be added to RHEL 8 with the following command:
sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm
sudo dnf upgrade
The EPEL repository can be added to RHEL 7 with the following command:
sudo rpm -ivh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
Adding the optional and extras repositories is also recommended:
sudo subscription-manager repos --enable "rhel-*-optional-rpms" --enable "rhel-*-extras-rpms"
sudo yum update
Snap can now be installed as follows:
sudo yum install snapd
Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap:
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
Either log out and back in again or restart your system to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
To install Nepenthes, simply use the following command:
sudo snap install nepenthes
Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap.
