tay Website Blocker wing Python aa Step by Step Explanation cre Idea and Approach Step-1: Import time, datetime modules for working with dates and times. Step-2: Set the path to the hosts file in your PC and define websites to block. This file is used to map domain name(Website) to custom IP address also define list of websites, working hours during which you want to block. Step-3: Set the IP address(127.0.0.1) to the blocked websites in the hosts file, so that sites will be redirected to this address when we open it which eventually shows “This site can’t be reached”. @Code.with.EV Idea and Approach Step-4: Check current time, If the current time falls within the working hours, the code opens the hosts file and checks if each website in the websites_to_block list is already present in the file. If not, it writes a line to the file that redirects the website to the redirect_ip (127.0.0.1). This effectively blocks access to websites. Step-5: Otherwise, the code opens the hosts file and Removes any blocked website entries from previous blocking periods. Step-6: Repeat this process & introduce some delay to avoid excessive CPU usage. @Code.with.EV Complete Implementation cee ce ae eee sued eee man EC aS) eel ee CEC aN CEC ce # List of websites to block Rone ol ge CL CUS] Ce hee sd Pietra et aN Ree C1) ema ee OM LETT eres ee ee Oe eee print(start_time) Pec a Pee eR eeu eR ca ear Cr Rice eae ene eam Patera Ie eee) with open(hosts_path, "r+") as file: content = file.read( ) ete eR icc omc ma ear eno ae ea ee a) foe else: # Block the website by redirecting it to the specified IP file.write(redirect_ip +" " + website + "\n") et eC ey Cen PUT) Mie Cee ees eae Cae gtem eC) aed) CnC OR- cs) Caer te ORCC Eat eet com soe faCetecctactry) Ce eR ee eC iCU RaeCsnr Bay file. truncate() # Check every 5 seconds Paucar) Instead of manually running daily.
