LokiNet is the reference implementation of LLARP (low latency anonymous routing protocol), a layer 3 onion routing protocol.
You can learn more about the high level design of LLARP here
And you can read the LLARP protocol specification here
see the documentation on how to get started using Lokinet.
Build requirements:
- GNU Make
- CMake
- C++ 17 capable C++ compiler
- rapidjson (if enabling jsonrpc server)
build:
$ sudo apt install build-essential cmake git libcap-dev curl rapidjson-dev
$ git clone https://github.com/loki-project/loki-network
$ cd loki-network
$ make -j8
install:
$ sudo make install
build:
$ pkg install wget cmake git
$ git clone https://github.com/loki-project/loki-network
$ cd loki-network
$ gmake -j8
install (root):
# gmake install
build (where $ARCH
is your platform - i686
or x86_64
):
$ pacman -Sy base-devel mingw-w64-$ARCH-toolchain git libtool autoconf mingw-w64-$ARCH-cmake curl
$ git clone https://github.com/loki-project/loki-network.git
$ cd loki-network
$ mkdir -p build; cd build
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=[Debug|Release] -DSTATIC_LINK=ON -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=gcc -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=g++ -DDNS_PORT=53 -G 'Unix Makefiles'
install (elevated) to $PROGRAMFILES/lokinet
or $ProgramFiles(x86)/lokinet
:
$ make install
if cross-compiling, install mingw-w64 from your distro's package manager, or build from source, then:
$ mkdir -p build; cd build
$ export COMPILER=clang # if using clang for windows
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=[Debug|Release] -DSTATIC_LINK=ON -DCMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING=ON -DDNS_PORT=53 -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../contrib/cross/mingw[32].cmake
this will create a static binary that can be installed anywhere, with no other dependency other than libc (minimum v6.1)
DO NOT RUN AS ROOT, run as normal user.
to run as client:
$ lokinet -g
$ lokinet-bootstrap
$ lokinet
to run as relay:
$ lokinet -r -g
$ lokinet-bootstrap
$ lokinet
DO NOT RUN AS ELEVATED USER, run as normal user.
to run as client:
C:\>lokinet -g && lokinet-bootstrap && lokinet
to run as relay (highly experimental, currently unsupported!):
C:\>lokinet -r -g && lokinet-bootstrap && lokinet
