#Retroshare proxy wait software

This software is still in active development, we are keen to get feedback about issues. Just be sure you can trust the Server administrator! Remote: Server: Home(s): In the near future you could also share a single DjRS installation with your friends. Just remember to use HTTPS with this configuration, as you will be sending RS web traffic over the Internet. Remote: Home:Īlternatively, you could run DjRS and Retroshare on a single server, and just use the Web Interface from anywhere. This is probably the easiest way for most people to use DjRS. As DjRS has no configuration, it can be installed and run from anywhere and used to access any Retroshare node. This provides great flexibility in how you access your system: Browser DjRS RS Node RS Netįor example, you could run Retroshare on your DreamPlug or Raspberry PI at home, and run DjRS remotely. The whole system has three distinct components (Browser, DjRS, Retroshare Node) which can be run on three different hosts. Instructions for setting this up are here: Excito Blog Post Network Setup The server version of Retroshare (retroshare-nogui) provides the SSH RPC protocol that DjRS talks to. Using the tornado http server is currently the best option. There are three ways of running DjRS listed in the Instructions.

#Retroshare proxy wait install

You need to install python and git and run some scripts. DjRS uses the PyRS python module to handle the comms. It communicates with your Retroshare Node using the SSH RPC protocol. TechnologyĭjRS is written using Python/Django and Bootstrap. We expect to add all the other standard Retroshare features to the Web Interface in the coming months: Forums, Channels, Wiki, Photographs, and more. File TransfersĪctive Transfers can be reached through the sidebar menu, and will be fully controllable from the Web Interface very soon.

#Retroshare proxy wait download

If Shared folders are too tedious to use, you can search the Network via the Search Interface and download data at the click of a button. Clicking on the Download link will fetch the files when they become available. Shared Folders are displayed one level at a time, allowing you to drill down as far as needed. We will add “create lobby” functionality in the near future. You can also communicate with a wider range of people via the Chat Lobbies. Of course, the chat is running over the Retroshare network and can be considered private. Type in your message, read their responses – what else is there to it! You can also access older chat messages via the button on the upper-right side. The web chat interface is quite basic at the moment – but functional. From here you can chat to friends that are online, view their shared files as well as change your friends list by adding or removing people. Excuse the reduxxed images but Retroshare is meant to be a Private Social Network. Find your FriendsĬlicking on friends is a good place to start. There is basic status information on the right-hand side and context menus for navigation.

You supply username, password as well as the location of your Retroshare Node, and the Web server connects via SSH. When you startup the Web Interface it presents you with the Login screen. There are more technical details towards the end of this post. So it is much better for your sanity if you run your own. As privacy-aware netizens, you know that the person running the Web Server will have access to your data. So you need a Retroshare installation before the Web Interface is useful.ĭjRS runs as a standalone Web Interface on any laptop, server, phone that supports python.

As Retroshare is a fully distributed system, we don’t host Retroshare nodes. Support for the DjRS will be in the next stable release (V0.5.4f)īut wait, I hear you ask, “why don’t you just point us at the webserver and let us play with it…?”.

#Retroshare proxy wait code

You need to compile Retroshare from source code to use it. NB: The Web Interface will only work with Retroshare SVN 6330 and upwards. Although its got a bit to go before it is one-click access, I thought it was time to share some screen-shots to whet your appetite. This is the new Web Interface for Retroshare, which allows you access to your Retroshare Node from anywhere you chose.
