The basic idea is to define rules with conditions and do modifications when all conditions are met.
## Requirements
## Dependencies
Pymodmilter is depending on these python packages, but they are installed automatically if you are working with pip.
* pymilter <https://pythonhosted.org/pymilter/>
* netaddr <https://github.com/drkjam/netaddr/>
## Configuration
Pymodmilter uses a configuration file in JSON format. The options are described below. Make a copy of the example configuration file in the docs folder to start with.
## Installation
* Install pymodmilter with pip.
```sh
pip install pymodmilter
```
* Download the example config file.
```sh
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/spacefreak86/pymodmilter/master/docs/pymodmilter.conf.example --output /etc/pymodmilter.conf
```
* Modify pymodmilter.conf according to your needs and you are ready to go.

* **log (Bool)**
* **log**
Enable or disable logging. This option may be overriden by a rule or modification object.
