Message seeding utility for friends p2p chat.
Run this on a server to ensure that there will always be a peer available to connect to for a given channel on friends.
- Use newest io.js and npm (
>= 1.8.1,>= 2.8.3). - Install
electron-prebuilt&electron-spawnglobally. - Install
peerbotglobally.
npm install -g peerbot
peerbot
peerbot always seeds the #friends channel. Pass --channel=mychannel to also seed another channel.
peerbot --channel=cats
You can specify as many channels as you want with multiple --channel flags.
If you're running peerbot on headless Ubuntu, you will need to use xvfb-run to create a virtual display so that Chromium can run:
$ sudo apt-get install xvfb
$ xvfb-run peerbot
Also you may need to apt-get install libgconf-2-4
Same requirements as in Install.
git clone [email protected]:moose-team/peerbot.git
cd peerbot
npm install
npm run rebuild-leveldb
npm start
