Automated, tagged Docker images of idk's Go reseed fork.
1.2K
This tool provides a secure and efficient reseed server for the I2P network. There are several utility commands to create, sign, and validate SU3 files. Please note that this requires at least Go version 1.13, and uses Go Modules.
Standard reseeds are distributed with the I2P packages. To get your reseed included, apply on zzz.i2p.
go
, git
, and optionally make
are required to build the project.
Precompiled binaries for most platforms are available at my github mirror
https://github.com/eyedeekay/i2p-tools-1.
In order to install the build-dependencies on Ubuntu or Debian, you may use:
sudo apt-get install golang-go git make
Reseed-tools can be run as a user, as a freestanding service, or be installed
as an I2P Plugin. It will attempt to configure itself automatically. You should
make sure to set the --signer
flag or the RESEED_EMAIL
environment variable
to configure your signing keys/contact info.
Plugin install URL's
Plugin releases are available inside of i2p at http://idk.i2p/reseed-tools/ and via the github mirror at https://github.com/eyedeekay/reseed-tools/releases. These can be installed by adding them on the http://127.0.0.1:7657/configplugins.
After installing the plugin, you should immediately edit the $PLUGIN/signer
file in order to set your --signer
email, which is used to name your keys.
You can find the $PLUGIN
directory in your I2P config directory, which is
usually $HOME/.i2p
on Unixes.
This will allow the developers to contact you if your reseed has issues and will authenticate your reseed to the I2P routers that use it.
git clone https://i2pgit.org/idk/reseed-tools
cd reseed-tools
make build
# Optionally, if you want to install to /usr/bin/reseed-tools
sudo make install
Debian/Ubuntu note:
Debian users who are running I2P as a system service must also run the
reseed-tools
as the same user. This is so that the reseed-tools can access
the I2P service's netDb directory. On Debian and Ubuntu, that user is i2psvc
and the netDb directory is: /var/lib/i2p/i2p-config/netDb
.
If this is your first time running a reseed server (ie. you don't have any existing keys), you can simply run the command and follow the prompts to create the appropriate keys, crl and certificates. Afterwards an HTTPS reseed server will start on the default port and generate 6 files in your current directory (a TLS key, certificate and crl, and a su3-file signing key, certificate and crl).
reseed-tools reseed --signer=you@mail.i2p --netdb=/home/i2p/.i2p/netDb --tlsHost=your-domain.tld
If you are using a reverse proxy server it may provide the TLS certificate instead.
reseed-tools reseed --signer=you@mail.i2p --netdb=/home/i2p/.i2p/netDb --port=8443 --ip=127.0.0.1 --trustProxy
