Make sure your server/php time is correct (NTP time) to ensure you run the script at the correct time.
This script also uses the testbed dac, when running in production you will be required to set the live DAC and RoR epp settings as follows:
DAC: dac.nic.uk port 3043 RoR EPP: ror-epp.nominet.org.uk port 700
This installation presumes you are running on a linux server with php installed, I'd suggest spinning up a Droplet at DigitalOcean (London based, size not really important) https://m.do.co/c/c195ffdba437 (Referal Link).
The only files you really need to access are the config/Config.php, the domains and the logs folder, everything else you should leave as is for the time being.
You will need to add an IP address and password to the web domain manager in your Nominet account online (and add them to the config).
On your server, preferably the one you use for drop catching currently, perform the following command (somewhere on your server you can remember):
If you don't have git installed please follow: https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Getting-Started-Installing-Git, or simply download the zip files and upload them to your server.
git clone git@github.com:AaronClifford/nominet-ror-epp-software.git
Once this has cloned move into the directory:
cd nominet-ror-epp-software
You now need to open and edit the config file (config/Config.php), either via FTP if you have access or via command line using VIM or VI, You need to edit the following settings to create a test contact and domain:
'epp' => [
'tag' => 'YOURTAG', // Enter your live tag here
'password' => 'EPPTESTBEDPASSWORD', // Enter the testbed EPP password you set
'liveRegistrantID' => 'LIVEREGID', // enter your live registration ID, or for testing the one you created with the test create.
]
Then made sure you have uploaded your domain list to the domains folder in the following format, one per line, no blank lines:
DD-MM-YY.txt
Example 21-06-19.txt
Once you have edited the config you can now save the file, and from the command line run:
php index.php
This will now run the script, ideally you want to run this script at 13:59:00, the script will have time do everything it needs then wait for the 2PM before sending requests.
** The final update for the script will be it slightly reconfigured for running on a cron **
This script is only setup for sending 6 requests, but can be modified quite easily to send 9. If I have time before the release date I may add some config for this.
Please create any issues on this repository if you find any problems, I apologies for the rushed nature of this but I understand time is of the essence.
