Setup i2p tunnels #211

Open nahuhh opened 1 year ago

nahuhh commented 1 year ago

Trying to setup i2p tunnels (tunnels.conf) and need to input the location of the key.dat files. If this is currently possible, where do i put the files? https://github.com/Gedsh/InviZible/issues/21#issuecomment-601686980

if not, would it be a good idea to store the config files on public storage similar to i2pd app?

Yes. It appears you must put files in /data/user/0/pan.alexander.tordnscrypt/ (inaccessible)

please add a storage permission to allow access to /storage/emulated/0/invizible or /storage/emulated/0/

This is a bad idea as it raises a lot of privacy issues. Why a privacy-focused app needs full storage access. It also requires MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission to work on modern android versions. I have to find a better and privacy oriented solution.

But for now, you can try save a backup. It is a zip archive. Add the necessary files and restore the backup.

will try and get back to you within 48hrs

48 hrs was a little long

the backup restore method doesnt work due to

  1. backup doesnt include the i2pd folder, and only the i2pd_data folder
  2. adding a tor hidden service complains about the folder being too permissive

maybe a workaround for 1. can let invizible import i2p .dat key files (and save them in the inaccessible i2pd folder) or a backup that includes the excluded folder?

not sure about tor.

Can't you use the /app_data/i2pd folder? It is accessible from i2pd as it is the app's internal folder.

adding a tor hidden service

Hosting hidden services is not planned.
