所以,我一直在研究一个 Ruby 脚本,它在我上学的时候会阻止 reddit(有用的东西)。这是代码:
require 'fileutils'
puts "-----------------------------------"
puts "Welcome to the hosts file modifier!"
puts "-----------------------------------"
puts "Option A: Use modified hosts"
puts "Option B: Use original hosts"
puts "Option C: Do nothing"
puts "Please enter your choice: "
input = gets.chomp.downcase
t = Time.now
# Time.now is used is conjunction with function 'original', in option 'b'
def modified
# This function copies the modified (redditblocking) hosts file from Documents to /etc
puts "Moving original hosts file out of /etc"
FileUtils.mv('/etc/hosts', '/Users/(usernameobscured)/Documents/OriginalHosts/hosts')
puts "Done. Now copying modified hosts to /etc"
FileUtils.cp('/Users/(usernameobscured)/Documents/ModifiedHosts/hosts', '/etc/hosts')
puts "Done"
end
def original
# This function deletes the modified hosts file from /etc (since we have a copy in Documents)
# and then moves the original hosts file back to /etc
puts "Deleting modified hosts file from /etc"
FileUtils.rm_rf('etc/hosts')
puts "Done. Now copying original hosts to /etc"
FileUtils.mv('/Users/(usernameobscured)/Documents/OriginalHosts/hosts', '/etc/hosts')
puts "Done"
end
def nothing
# This does... nothing. Literally.
puts "Doing nothing"
end
if input == 'a'
modified
end
if input == 'b'
# Here's when using Time.now becomes helpful: if the hour of the day is less than 5PM,
# then the original hosts file can't be moved back (don't wanna be on reddit during school hours!)
if t.hour > 17
original
elsif t.hour < 17
puts "Too early to use original hosts file. Come back at 5PM"
end
end
if input == 'c'
# Nothing...
nothing
end
如您所见,它将修改后的主机文件从我的 Documents 文件夹移动到 /etc。不过,根据 OS X/Unix 安全措施,我遇到的问题是我必须通过 sudo 运行脚本或以 root 身份登录。这是一个小麻烦,但是,我相信它可以在代码中修复。如何通过我的 ruby 脚本获得超级用户权限,或临时写入 /etc 权限,以便我可以在没有 sudo/root 的情况下简单地运行脚本?
