<h2>{{ _("Tutorial: GNUnet on Archlinux/Pi") }}</h2>

Welcome to this GNUnet tutorial for Archlinux on a Raspberry Pi 3. If you want
to run a GNUnet node on a separte system, permanently online, with low energy
consumption, this might be the thing for you. This tutorial shows you how to
install, run, and operate it. 

<h3>{{ _("Requirements") }}</h3>

<p>First you need the hardware. This tutorial works with a Raspberry Pi 3. The
other Pi versions I haven't tested, but they should probably work, too. To
install Archlinux on the Pi3, follow the instructions from <a
href="https://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv8/broadcom/raspberry-pi-3">archlinuxarm.org</a>.</p>

<p>That was easy, right? Our goal now is to build GNUnet from source. So, let's
install the tools for building new software.</p>

<p><code>
> sudo pacman -S base-devel
</code></p>

<p>Now we can continue to install the following Archlinux dependencies to
compile GNUnet on our Pi.</p>

<p><code>
$ pacman -Su libmicrohttpd libgcrypt gnurl libunistring gnutls libidn
libextractor openssl libltdl sqlite texinfo which gettext zlib
pkg-config git miniupnpc libextractor jansson nim
</code></p>

<h3>{{ _("Get the Source Code") }}</h3>

<p>We are getting closer. Download the GNUnet source code which we will build
in the next step:<p>

<p><code>
> git clone https://gnunet.org/git/gnunet.git<br> 
</code></p>

<p>Now it's time to compile GNUnet.</p>

<p><code>
> cd gnunet<br>
> ./bootstrap # Run this to generate the configure files.<br>
> ./configure # Use --help to see the various flags available to you.<br>
> make -j$(nproc || echo -n 1)<br>
> sudo make install<br>
</code></p>

<p>Congrats! GNUnet is now installed!</p>

<h3>{{ _("Run") }}</h3>

<p>By default GNUnet looks in our home directory for the file
~/.config/gnunet.conf. We can start with an empty file for now:</p>

<p><code>
> touch ~/.config/gnunet.conf
</code></p>
 <br />
  <p>
    It's reccomended that you increase your bandwidth restrictions
    from the acutely low defaults. The example below sets the WAN
    and LAN limits to the value "unlimited".
  </p>
 <br />
  <code>
    $ gnunet-config -s ats -o WAN_QUOTA_IN -V unlimited<br />
    $ gnunet-config -s ats -o WAN_QUOTA_OUT -V unlimited<br /> 
    $ gnunet-config -s ats -o LAN_QUOTA_IN -V unlimited<br />
    $ gnunet-config -s ats -o LAN_QUOTA_OUT -V unlimited<br /> 
  </code>
 <br />
<p>Now we can start it with the commandline tool gnunet-arm (Automatic Restart
Manager).</p>

<p><code>
> gnunet-arm -s 
</code></p>

<p>It starts the default GNUnet services. We can list them with the -I option:</p>

<p><code>
> gnunet-arm -I<br>
Running services:<br>
ats (gnunet-service-ats)<br>
revocation (gnunet-service-revocation)<br>
set (gnunet-service-set)<br>
nat (gnunet-service-nat)<br>
transport (gnunet-service-transport)<br>
peerstore (gnunet-service-peerstore)<br>
hostlist (gnunet-daemon-hostlist)<br>
identity (gnunet-service-identity)<br>
namecache (gnunet-service-namecache)<br>
peerinfo (gnunet-service-peerinfo)<br>
datastore (gnunet-service-datastore)<br>
zonemaster (gnunet-service-zonemaster)<br>
zonemaster-monitor (gnunet-service-zonemaster-monitor)<br>
nse (gnunet-service-nse)<br>
cadet (gnunet-service-cadet)<br>
dht (gnunet-service-dht)<br>
core (gnunet-service-core)<br>
gns (gnunet-service-gns)<br>
statistics (gnunet-service-statistics)<br>
topology (gnunet-daemon-topology)<br>
fs (gnunet-service-fs)<br>
namestore (gnunet-service-namestore)<br>
vpn (gnunet-service-vpn)<br>
</code></p>

<p>For stopping GNUnet again we can use the -e option.</p>

<p><code>
> gnunet-arm -e
</code></p>

<h3>{{ _("Make sure, it works!") }}</h3>

After starting GNUnet you should make sure that your peer is connecting to the
P2P-network. By typing gnunet-core you should see something like this:

<p><code>
> gnunet-core<br>
Tue Oct 30 19:58:48 2018: connection established         DSTJ (timeout in  293 s)<br>
Tue Oct 30 19:58:48 2018: connection established         A4MK (timeout in  292 s)<br>
Tue Oct 30 19:58:48 2018: connection established         7WRD (timeout in  299 s)<br>
Tue Oct 30 19:58:48 2018: connection established         5WBG (timeout in  299 s)<br>
</code></p>

<h3>{{ _("Chat the cat") }}</h3>

<p>To be able to chat, we need to install and compile additional
software.</p>

<p><code>
> git clone https://gnunet.org/git/gnunet-nim.git<br>
> cd gnunet-nim/examples<br>
> nim c groupchat.nim
</code></p>

<p>Fine! We can now try to enter a chat server running on another GNUnet node. 

<p><code>
> LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/gnunetlibs ./groupchat --config=/path/to/gnunet.conf --server=YV6G9EP9K3X41BM3FJ3D29BDZR6358XNZ6KDZVV7DFW729YB0KCG --port=welcome --nick=YOURNICK
</code></p>

<p>You should now see something like this:</p>

<p><code>
> 2018-10-30 19:50:10 Welcome 8Q2T! participants: @[] <br>
Hello GNUnet!<br>
2018-10-30 19:52:53 [8Q2T] Hello GNUnet!
</code></p>

<p>Here we have typed "Hello gnunet!" to standard in which is then written out
to standard out after having been sent back from GNUnet.</p>
