This is the server node using the Jabit library. You can run it by calling

java -jar jabit-server.jar

The interface will be available on port 9000, Bitmessage as usual on Port 8444.

There are still a few problems with the interface (the idea is to allow collecting and displaying broadcasts).

On first startup it will create a config file (allowing you to configure the Bitmessage port), a whitelist, a blacklist and a shortlist. If the whitelist isn't empty, the blacklist will be irrelevant. You can disable the feature by simply adding a valid Bitmessage address to the whitelist. For shortlisted addresses, only the last five broadcasts are displayed and stored (useful e.g. for time services or Q's Aktivlist).

You can build the jar file with

./gradlew build

As there is a problem with the build order, you'll need to do this twice.

To deploy on a Ubuntu server (might work on other Linuxes as well), create a file /etc/init/jabit.conf with the following contents:

chdir /srv/jabit

exec su -s /bin/sh -c 'exec "$0" "$@"' jabit -- /usr/bin/java -jar jabit-server.jar --server.port=9000 > /dev/null

start on runlevel [2345]
stop on runlevel [^2345]

there must be a user jabit and a folder /srv/jabit where this user has write permission containing jabit-server.jar.
