A simple server which implements the Quote of the Day protocol: RFC 865.
Please note that QOTD servers are known to be vulnerable to "ping-pong" DOS attacks so it's probably not wise to expose this service in production.
(In case you hadn't guessed, this is purely a silly just-for-fun project. :) )
$ ./qotd --help
Usage of ./qotd:
-debug=false: Print debug messages
-file="/tmp/quotes": File to get quotes from
-port=17: Port to run QOTD on
go-qotd accepts a quotes file in fortune(6) format, which consists of a set of quotations each separated by the character '%' on its own line.
Please note that the sample data included in this repo is the list of science quotes from fortune-mod version 1.99.1-17.el7 from the Fedora Project. fortune-mod BSD licensed.
