django-bot-rickroll 0.1.0

Django plugin that rickrolls bots and scanners by redirecting common malicious URLs

django-bot-rickroll

Story

Once upon a time I noticed my server log was filled with 404 errors for URL's like /wp-admin and so on. I figured redirecting them to this cool music video was one way I could get these errors out of my logs.

Also it means if my kids are snooping around they can get a laugh or two.

Installation

uv add django-bot-rickroll

Usage

Add django_bot_rickroll to INSTALLED_APPS and then to urlpatterns:

from django.urls import path, include

urlpatterns = [
    # Your app URLs first ...
    path("", include("django_bot_rickroll.urls")),
]

You can customize the target URL in your settings.py:

RICKROLL_URL = "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ"
