quartz: - SQLiteEventStore: classify per-row savepoint errors — policy refusals (blocked:/constraint/not allowed) stay Rejected, everything else is now Failed, so disk-full no longer masquerades as 2M duplicate rejections - IEventStore.batchInsert default: rethrow CancellationException and map unknown throws to Failed (re-offering a duplicate is idempotent; dropping a good event on a transient store error is not) - IngestQueue: rethrow CancellationException instead of stamping a cancelled batch Failed and continuing - HostStrikes: make the eviction verdict exactly-once under concurrency (deadHosts.add is the atomic gate) and re-check produced before publishing - SyncCoverage: bound the identity fingerprint cache (a caller minting fresh Filter instances per cycle could grow it forever); legs() gains a floor parameter so a complete band re-opens its older span when the caller's window deepens; coveringWindow no longer treats a fully covered relay as needing the whole filter - PagingWindowProgress: accept single-second windows (a band's re-read edge leg is exactly that shape) geode: - MirrorWorker: cap reconciledThrough at the leg's own ceiling — the older leg of a resumed catch-up no longer stamps the band complete through 'now' before the newer leg has run (silent event loss for up to fullResyncSeconds if that leg failed) - MirrorWorker: run negentropy and the paged fallback by hand instead of negentropySyncOrFetch: drops the O(delivered-ids) dedup set from the mirror path, and a fallback resets the observed span so a band never claims interior ranges only a half-finished reconcile scattered over - MirrorWorker: clamp a paged band's ceiling to the snapshot instant so one future-dated event cannot suppress the next boot's newer leg - MirrorWorker.close(): join the workers (bounded) so the final coverage flush carries the last records - Main: gate the coverage file on the store actually being persistent — database.file with in_memory=true (the default) persisted bands over a volatile store, and the next boot skipped the backfill over an empty database; honor --db overrides - SyncCoverageFile: request ATOMIC_MOVE explicitly; fix the restore/dirty comment - Import summary now prints the failed count; document mirror_sync_state_file in config.example.toml
geode
A standalone Nostr relay for the JVM, built on Quartz's relay-server code (Ktor CIO). It speaks the core relay protocol plus NIP-11 (info doc), NIP-42 (AUTH), NIP-45 (COUNT), NIP-50 (full-text search), NIP-77 (Negentropy sync), and NIP-86 (relay management), stores events in SQLite (or a filesystem backend), and can mirror upstream relays strfry-router style.
geode depends only on :quartz — no Android, no Compose. amy serve (the
Amethyst CLI) embeds the same engine in-process.
Install
Pick the channel that matches how you deploy. For a real relay, the Docker
image or the .deb/.rpm + systemd are the two production paths;
Homebrew and the portable tarball are handy for local testing.
Docker (recommended for servers)
Images are published to GHCR on every release:
# Ephemeral — in-memory store, events vanish on restart:
docker run --rm -p 7447:7447 ghcr.io/vitorpamplona/geode:latest
# Persistent + configured:
docker run -d --name geode -p 7447:7447 \
-v $PWD/geode.toml:/etc/geode/geode.toml:ro \
-v geode-data:/var/lib/geode \
ghcr.io/vitorpamplona/geode:latest --config /etc/geode/geode.toml
with in_memory = false and file = "/var/lib/geode/events.db" in your
geode.toml. Pin a version (:1.13.1) instead of :latest for reproducible
deploys. To build the image yourself, from the repo root:
docker build -f geode/Dockerfile -t geode:local .
Debian/Ubuntu (.deb) and Fedora/RHEL (.rpm)
Download geode-<version>-linux-x64.deb (or .rpm) from the
release page and install
it — a minimal JRE is bundled, so no system Java is required. It installs to
/opt/geode/ with the launcher at /opt/geode/bin/geode.
sudo dpkg -i geode-1.13.1-linux-x64.deb # or: sudo rpm -i geode-1.13.1-linux-x64.rpm
To run it as a managed service, wire up the shipped systemd unit
(/opt/geode/share/geode/geode.service) — the unit file's header comment has
the copy-paste steps (create the geode user, drop your config in
/etc/geode/geode.toml, systemctl enable --now geode).
Homebrew
brew install vitorpamplona/tap/geode # from the tap, once published
The formula depends on openjdk and installs the no-JRE jar bundle. Reference
formula: packaging/homebrew/geode.rb.
Portable tarball (any Linux/macOS, no system Java)
Download geode-<version>-<os>-<arch>.tar.gz, unpack, and run:
tar xzf geode-1.13.1-linux-x64.tar.gz
./geode/bin/geode --config geode/share/geode/config.example.toml
The tarball bundles a jlink'd JRE plus share/geode/config.example.toml and
share/geode/geode.service.
From source
./gradlew :geode:run --args="--config /etc/geode.toml"
Configure
geode runs with zero config (binds 0.0.0.0:7447, in-memory SQLite). For
anything real, copy config.example.toml and edit it —
the sections mirror nostr-rs-relay's config.toml so existing configs port
almost verbatim. Precedence is CLI flags > TOML > built-in defaults.
geode --config /etc/geode/geode.toml
geode --help # full flag list
geode --version
Key sections: [info] (NIP-11 doc), [network] (bind + thread pools),
[database] (SQLite path/tuning), [options] (AUTH / verify / search),
[authorization] (allow/deny lists), [[mirror]] (upstream mirroring), and
[admin] (NIP-86 management). See the example file for every knob.
Verbs
geode [relay] [flags] serve the relay (default)
geode import [flags] [FILE…] bulk-load NDJSON events into the store
geode export [flags] dump the store as NDJSON to stdout
import/export are geode's strfry import / strfry export — one JSON event
per line, for seeding, migrating, or backing up a relay. Both stream, so a
multi-million-event corpus round-trips in roughly constant memory.
Release process
geode ships on the same tag-driven pipeline as the rest of Amethyst: pushing a
v* tag runs .github/workflows/create-release.yml, whose build-geode job
produces the tarball + .deb/.rpm + Homebrew jvm bundle, docker-geode
builds and pushes the GHCR image, and bump-homebrew-geode-formula.yml syncs
the reference formula. Design notes:
