Internet Noise Maker

Ever wanted some friends over to help surf the web and fill up your Internet Service Provider's surveillance log of your web traffic? I can absolutely be your friend, but I won't be able to come over.

This is a Dockerized (oops containerized) version of the Internet Noise site by Dan Schultz. I heard about the project from The_HatedOne's YouTube channel

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.

Prerequisites

You'll need:

• an always-on server (because who doesn't run their own server)
• Docker or your favorite container engine
• a bit of understanding about containers

I've hosted the image on Docker Hub for ease of distribution.

Let's Get Installing

Pull the image to your server

docker pull itsmikechu/internet-noise-maker

Simple...I know.

Deployment

Then we can spin up a running container using my favorite flags/arguments

docker run -d --name="noise" --restart="always" --net="host" --shm-size="1gb" itsmikechu/internet-noise-maker

Here's an explaination of the recommended flags:

• -d Run the container in the background
• --name Choose whatever name you'd like for the running container
• --restart="always" We want this running even if it exits unexpectedly or the server is rebooted
• --net="host" Use the server's network connection
• --shm-size Puppeteer requires a bit more memory than most containers

Contributing

Feel free to send in issues and pull requests. I'm always looking for pointers, advice, and to grow my skillz.
