# LokiNet
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](docs/high-level.txt)
And you can read the LLARP protocol specification [here](docs/proto_v0.txt)
![build status](https://gitlab.com/lokiproject/loki-network/badges/master/pipeline.svg "build status")
## Building
Build requirements:
* GNU Make
* CMake
* C++ 17 capable C++ compiler
* rapidjson (if enabling jsonrpc server)
### Linux
build:
$ sudo apt install build-essential cmake git libcap-dev wget rapidjson-dev
$ git clone https://github.com/loki-project/loki-network
$ cd loki-network
$ make -j8
install:
$ sudo make install
### FreeBSD
build:
$ pkg install wget cmake git
$ git clone https://github.com/loki-project/loki-network
$ cd loki-network
$ gmake -j8
install (root):
# gmake install
## Windows
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
$ 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](https://sourceforge.net/p/mingw-w64/wiki2/Cross%20Win32%20and%20Win64%20compiler/), 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 (7.0)
## Running on Linux/UNIX/BSD
**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
## Running on Windows
**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
## Usage
see the [documentation](https://loki-project.github.io/loki-docs/Lokinet/LokinetOverview/) on how to get started.
