# Anubis {#module-services-anubis}
[Anubis](https://anubis.techaro.lol) is a scraper defense software that blocks AI scrapers. It is designed to sit
between a reverse proxy and the service to be protected.
## Quickstart {#module-services-anubis-quickstart}
This module is designed to use Unix domain sockets as the socket paths can be automatically configured for multiple
instances, but TCP sockets are also supported.
Configuring multiple instances may look like the following.
Notes:
- Each instance as its runtime directory set to `anubis/anubis-<instance name>`.
- When a single instance is declared with unix sockets, the runtime directory `anubis` is allowed for backward
compatibility.
```nix
{
services.anubis.instances."instance-1" = {
# Runtime directory: "anubis/anubis-instance-1".
settings = {
BIND = "/run/anubis/anubis-instance-1/anubis.sock";
TARGET = "http://localhost:8001";
};
};
services.anubis.instances."instance-2" = {
# Runtime directory: "anubis/anubis-instance-2".
settings = {
BIND = "/run/anubis/anubis-instance-2/anubis.sock";
TARGET = "http://localhost:8002";
};
};
}
```
A minimal configuration with [nginx](#opt-services.nginx.enable) may look like the following:
```nix
{ config, ... }:
{
services.anubis.instances.default.settings.TARGET = "http://localhost:8000";
# required due to unix socket permissions
users.users.nginx.extraGroups = [ config.users.groups.anubis.name ];
services.nginx.virtualHosts."example.com" = {
locations = {
"/".proxyPass = "http://unix:${config.services.anubis.instances.default.settings.BIND}";
};
};
}
```
If Unix domain sockets are not needed or desired, this module supports operating with only TCP sockets.
```nix
{
services.anubis = {
instances.default = {
settings = {
TARGET = "http://localhost:8080";
BIND = ":9000";
BIND_NETWORK = "tcp";
METRICS_BIND = "127.0.0.1:9001";
METRICS_BIND_NETWORK = "tcp";
};
};
};
}
```
## Configuration {#module-services-anubis-configuration}
It is possible to configure default settings for all instances of Anubis, via {option}`services.anubis.defaultOptions`.
```nix
{
services.anubis.defaultOptions = {
botPolicy = {
dnsbl = false;
};
settings.DIFFICULTY = 3;
};
}
```
Note that at the moment, a custom bot policy is not merged with the baked-in one. That means to only override a setting
like `dnsbl`, copying the entire bot policy is required. Check
[the upstream repository](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/blob/1509b06cb921aff842e71fbb6636646be6ed5b46/cmd/anubis/botPolicies.json)
for the policy.
