NAME

dmarc_httpd - a web server for DMARC validation and report viewing

VERSION

version 1.20170911

SYNOPSIS

A HTTP interface for:

  • local DMARC reports

  • DMARC validator service

Start the HTTP server:

dmarc_httpd

Connect with a web browser to http://localhost:8080.

DESCRIPTION

The HTTP server handles 4 types of requests:

  • /

    Serves files stored in the perl share directory of the Mail::DMARC module. This presently entails one HTML file and a handful of CSS and JS files for the report viewing feature.

  • /dmarc/json/validate - DMARC validation requests

    Accepts a JSON encoded HTTP POST request. Validates the request, performs a DMARC validation and returns a JSON encoded result object. This is the API for non-perl applications to utilize Mail::DMARC.

    See the dmarc_http_client app for a usage example.

  • /dmarc/json/report

    Accepts AJAX requests from the browser and returns JSON encoded DMARC reports.

  • /dmarc/json/row

    Accepts AJAX requests from the browser and returns JSON encoded DMARC report rows.

An implementation that uses the http validation service is the included <dmarc_http_client> and another is the dmarc plugin in the <Haraka mail server|http://haraka.github.io>.

A Sample Report is available which shows the web interface. It is implemented almost entirely in JavaScript, using jQuery, jQueryUI, and jqGrid.

Web server settings are in the [http] and [https] sections of mail-dmarc.ini.
