Mikrotik Blocklist Importer
Occasionally I have the mad idea of scrapping pihole and just using the dns server in my mikrotik router.
This script will let you do this mad thing.
It comes as a Taskfile and a terraform project.
The taskfile has two tasks:
➜ task -a
task: Available tasks for this project:
* sync_with_mikrotik: Sync with mikrotik
* update_pihole_list: Download the latest default pihole blocklist
update_pihole_list downloads the default pihole blocklist. This is good enough for most folks. It'll parse out the noise and generate a derivative file called urls_to_block. As of mid 2022, this file has roughly 130000 domains to block.
The next step is sync_with_mikrotik, which initializes and sets up a terraform plan for you. This will create a mikrotik dns record for each domain in the list.
I used terraform so that it is easy to revert these changes once I realize how bad of an idea this is going to be, while leaving any existing dns settings in place.
