Drop Catch Script

Documentation

Hello my dear Domainers.
It's a DropCatching script / software that you can install on your pc / laptop and or on a VPS.

The script is available and working.
This script can install and work in your pc / laptop and or in a VPS server with single code base.

I recommend using a VPS server for best performance.

You don't need a High spec VPS to run this script. A normal cheap $5 VPS with 1GB RAM is enough to run this script.

The script is mainly for Drop Catch service where you can catch manually or automatically.

Every 1 minute, the script will check your domain availability. when the domain is deleted from the registry database and available for register, it will automatically catch the domain through your API.

The check interval can be customised on your request.

I have added some domain tools with this script like Random English Word domain generator, random letter , random number, random alpha-numeric domains, bulk domains checker, AI domain generator, bulk whois checker etc.

npm install

It will install all necessary packages that are required for the script.

Next, type this command below.

npm start

WPTD@1.0 start > NODE_ENV=production node server.js > Ready on http://localhost:3000

Install on VPS (CLI)

Install NodeJS

We will guide you here on how to install Node Js with NPM, Apache server, and PM2 process manager.
To install the latest NodeJS version 18.x, type the commands below.

curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_18.x -o nodesource_setup.sh

Then run the below command

sudo bash nodesource_setup.sh

sudo apt install nodejs

This will install NodeJS 18.x and NPM to your system. to verify the version, you can check by below command.

node -v

Output

Install Apache server.

To install the Apache2 package, follow the below command line in your terminal.

sudo apt install apache2

Enable required Apache modules:

Next.js projects often use Node.js and require proxying to the Node.js application running on a different port. To enable the required Apache modules, run:

sudo a2enmod proxy

sudo a2enmod proxy_http

sudo a2enmod proxy_balancer

sudo a2enmod lbmethod_byrequests

Configure a new virtual host: Create a new virtual host configuration file for your domain.

sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/yoursite.com.conf

Replace yoursite.com with your own domain.
Add the following content to the file. Replace yoursite.com and www.yoursite.com with your domain again.

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName yoursite.com
    ServerAlias www.yoursite.com

    ProxyPreserveHost On
    ProxyPass / http://localhost:3000/
    ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:3000/
</VirtualHost>

Enable the virtual host: Replace yoursite.com with your domain.

sudo a2ensite yoursite.com

Restart Apache to apply the changes:

sudo service apache2 restart

That's it.

Install PM2 process manager

PM2 is a process manager, to install it, follow the below command line.

sudo npm install pm2 -g

We will use this service when we install the script.
