# Lokinet
|
|
|
|
[Español](readme_es.md) [Русский](readme_ru.md) [Français](readme_fr.md)
|
|
|
|
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, how to use it and the internals of the protocol [here](docs/)

### Linux <span id="linux-install" />
|
|
|
|
You do not have to build from source if you are on debian or ubuntu as we have apt repositories with pre-built lokinet packages on `deb.oxen.io` or `rpm.oxen.io`.
|
|
|
|
You can install debian packages using:
|
|
|
|
$ sudo curl -so /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/oxen.gpg https://deb.oxen.io/pub.gpg
|
|
$ echo "deb https://deb.oxen.io $(lsb_release -sc) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/oxen.list
|
|
$ sudo apt update
|
|
$ sudo apt install lokinet
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to build from source:
|
|
|
|
$ sudo apt install build-essential cmake git libcap-dev pkg-config automake libtool libuv1-dev libsodium-dev libzmq3-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libevent-dev nettle-dev libunbound-dev libsqlite3-dev libssl-dev nlohmann-json3-dev
|
|
$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/oxen-io/lokinet
|
|
$ cd lokinet
|
|
$ mkdir build
|
|
$ cd build
|
|
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF
|
|
$ make -j$(nproc)
|
|
$ sudo make install
|
|
|
|
#### Arch Linux <span id="mom-cancel-my-meetings-arch-linux-broke-again" />
|
|
|
|
Due to [circumstances beyond our control](https://github.com/oxen-io/lokinet/discussions/1823) a working `PKGBUILD` can be found [here](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/oxen-io/lokinet/makepkg/contrib/archlinux/PKGBUILD).
|
|
|
|
#### Cross Compile For Linux <span id="linux-cross" />
|
|
|
|
current cross targets:
|
|
|
|
* aarch64-linux-gnu
|
|
* arm-linux-gnueabihf
|
|
* mips-linux-gnu
|
|
* mips64-linux-gnuabi64
|
|
* mipsel-linux-gnu
|
|
* powerpc64le-linux-gnu
|
|
|
|
install the toolchain (this one is for `aarch64-linux-gnu`, you can provide your own toolchain if you want)
|
|
|
|
$ sudo apt install g{cc,++}-aarch64-linux-gnu
|
|
|
|
build 1 or many cross targets:
|
|
|
|
$ ./contrib/cross.sh arch_1 arch_2 ... arch_n
|
|
|
|
### MacOS <span id="mac-install" />
|
|
|
|
Source code compilation of Lokinet by end users is not supported or permitted by apple on their platforms, see [this](contrib/macos/README.txt) for more information.
|
|
|
|
If you find this disagreeable consider using a platform that permits compiling from source.
|
|
|
|
### Windows <span id="windows-install" />
|
|
|
|
You can get the latest stable windows release from https://lokinet.org/ or check the [releases page on github](https://github.com/oxen-io/lokinet/releases).
|
|
|
|
nightly builds for the brave or impatient can be found from our CI pipeline [here](https://oxen.rocks/oxen-io/lokinet/)
|
|
|
|
#### Building For Windows <span id="win32-cross" />
|
|
|
|
windows builds are cross compiled from debian/ubuntu linux
|
|
|
|

|
|
$ cd lokinet
|
|
$ mkdir build

|
### Android <span id="apk-install" />
|
|
|
|
We have an Android APK for lokinet VPN via android VPN API.
|
|
|
|
Coming to F-Droid whenever that happens. [[issue]](https://github.com/oxen-io/lokinet-flutter-app/issues/8)
|
|
|
|
* [source code](https://github.com/oxen-io/lokinet-flutter-app)
|
|
* [CI builds](https://oxen.rocks/oxen-io/lokinet/)
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Debian / Ubuntu packages <span id="systemd-linux-usage" />
|
|
|
|
When running from debian package the following steps are not needed as it is already running and
|
|
ready to use. You can stop/start/restart it using `systemctl start lokinet`, `systemctl stop
|
|
lokinet`, etc.
|
|
|
|
### Running on Linux (without debs) <span id="arcane-linux-usage" />
|
|
|
|
**DO NOT RUN AS ROOT**, run as normal user.
|
|
|
|
set up the initial configs:
|
|
|
|
$ lokinet -g
|
|
$ lokinet-bootstrap
|
|
|
|
after you create default config, run it:
|
|
|
|
$ lokinet
|
|
|
|
This requires the binary to have the proper capabilities which is usually set by `make install` on the binary. If you have errors regarding permissions to open a new interface this can be resolved using:
|
|
|
|
$ sudo setcap cap_net_admin,cap_net_bind_service=+eip /usr/local/bin/lokinet
|
