This project will run under Linux, and build native launchers for Linux, MacOS and Windows. The launchers will include the I2P router, a SAM listener and a minimal JVM.
The zero-dependency distribution sizes are as follows:
| OS | Uncompressed size (MB) | xz Compressed size (MB) |
|---|---|---|
| Linux | 41.6 | 22.5 |
| MacOS | 29.5 | 17.5 |
| Windows | 33.6 | 20.1 |
From a freshly installed Ubuntu system, first ensure git is installed:
sudo apt install git
Then, retrieve this project from git:
git clone https://github.com/knaccc/i2p-zero.git
Note that the current version of this script uses jdk-11.0.2. If this version of Java becomes no longer available for download, then update the references to jdk-11.0.2 in java-config.sh to the later version. To locate a recent JDK download URL, see https://jdk.java.net/11/
Also note that JDKs for Linux, MacOS and Windows will be downloaded, which will total several hundred megabytes.
Run the bin/build-all.sh script, which will in turn call the following scripts:
-
bin/import-packages.shto retrieve the I2P Java sources, OpenJDK and the Ant build tool -
bin/build-original-i2p.shto build the I2P project retrieved from the I2P repository -
build-launcher.shto convert the I2P JARs to modules, compile the Java source code in this project, and then use the jlink tool to build zero-dependency platform-specific launchers.
To run the Linux router, type:
dist/linux/router/bin/launch.sh
To run the MacOS router, type:
dist/mac/router/bin/launch.sh
For Windows, run:
dist/windows/router/bin/launch.bat
If it launches successfully, you'll see the message:
I2P router launched. SAM listening on port 7656.
Press Ctrl-C to gracefully shut down the router (or send the SIGINT signal to the process).
fuser 7656/tcp
