Building

On Ubuntu/Debian based

• sudo apt-get install libboost-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-regex-dev libcrypto++-dev libboost-date-time-dev
• $ cd i2pd/build
• $ cmake ..
• $ make

Then, run it:

$ ./i2pd

The client should now reseed by itself.

By default, the web console is located at http://localhost:7070/.

For a list of cmake options, see BUILD_NOTES.md

Installing the webui

If you build from source the webui files will automatically be copied to your i2pd data path. In some cases (such as when using binaries), you may have to manually install the webui. For this, run:

$ ./i2pd --install=/path/to/webui

Or, if the current directory contains a folder named "webui":

$ ./i2pd --install

Building Unit Tests

To build unit tests, you'll need to install the boost unit test framework.

On Ubuntu/Debian based

• sudo apt-get install libboost-test-dev

To build the tests, run

$ cmake .. -DWITH_TESTS=ON
