Here's a very quick guide to getting started
|
|
on contributing to the website or the software, including translations.
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Not quite ready for coding?
|
|
Try <a href="getinvolved.html">getting involved</a> first.
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
For development on the i2p router or the embedded applications,
|
|
learn Java, love Java :)
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Study the <a href="how_intro.html">how intro</a>,
|
|
the <a href="how.html">other "how" documents</a>,
|
|
the <a href="techintro.html">tech intro</a>,
|
|
and associated documents.
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
For development on the i2p router or the embedded applications,
|
|
get the monotone source repository installed - short instructions:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Install <a href="http://www.monotone.ca/">monotone</a>
|
|
<li>Skim over the <a href="http://monotone.ca/docs/Tutorial.html">monotone tutorial</a>
|
|
<li>Enable the <a href="i2ptunnel.html">i2ptunnel</a> client tunnel on port 8998 pointing to mtn.i2p2.i2p (if you are having nonce issues, see <a href="http://trac.i2p2.de/ticket/64">ticket #64</a> for a workaround)
|
|
<li>mtn -d i2p.mtn db init
|
|
<li>mtn -d i2p.mtn pull 127.0.0.1:8998 i2p.i2p
|
|
<li>mtn -d i2p.mtn co --branch=i2p.i2p
|
|
</ul>
|
|
Non-anonymous access: mtn.i2p2.de:4691 or mtn.i2p-projekt.de:4691
|
|
<br>
|
|
Website branch: use i2p.www instead of i2p.i2p.
|
|
<br>
|
|
The initial pull may take several hours using the tunnel.
|
|
If it fails after a partial pull, simply rerun it, it will start where it left off.
|
|
If you are in a hurry, use the non-anonymous access.
|
|
<br>
|
|
Full list of branches: see <a href="http://stats.i2p/cgi-bin/viewmtn/">viewmtn</a>.

Long version: see the <a href="monotone.html">monotone page</a>.
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
To compile the code, you need the Sun Java Development Kit 6 or higher, or equivalent JDK
|
|
(<a href="http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp">Sun JDK 6</a> strongly recommended) and
|
|
<a href="http://ant.apache.org/">Apache ant</a>
|
|
version 1.7.0 or higher.
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
To build or work on console translations, you need
|
|
the xgettext, msgfmt, and msgmerge tools from the
|
|
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/">GNU gettext package</a>.
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
For development on new applications,
|
|
see the <a href="applications">application development guide</a>.
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
See <a href="http://zzz.i2p/forums/3">zzz's TODO lists</a>,
|
|
<a href="todo.html">this website's TODO list</a> or
|
|
<a href="http://trac.i2p2.de/report/2">Trac</a>
|
|
for ideas.
|

|
|
Say hi to the developers on #i2p
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
See the bottom of <a href="licenses.html">licenses.html</a> for
|
|
commit privilege requirements. (Not required for website)
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Short version of how to generate and use keys if you plan to commit:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>mtn genkey yourname-transport@mail.i2p <i>(use an empty passphrase)</i>
|
|
<li>mtn genkey yourname@mail.i2p <i>(enter a passphrase)</i>
|
|
<li>mtn pubkey yourname-transport@mail.i2p <i>(<a href="mailto:mtn@welterde.de">send</a> this to a mtn repo operator to get push privileges)</i>
|
|
<li>mtn pubkey yourname@mail.i2p <i>(send this to <a href="mailto:zzz@mail.i2p">a release manager</a> to get commit privileges - not required for website)</i>
|
|
<li>mtn ci -k yourname@mail.i2p <i>(check in with this key)</i>
|
|
<li>mtn sync -k yourname-transport@mail.i2p <i>(push with this key)</i>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
