Contribution Request | MacOS Support #35

Open albe-rosado opened 7 months ago

albe-rosado commented 7 months ago

Would you welcome a PR to add support for MacOS?

albe-rosado commented 7 months ago

I just took a quick look, and besides hardcoded paths and variable names, i2p-zero is the hardest part, I can work on that too, in the repo you already cloned. Dunno if is something you are open to support.

creating2morrow commented 7 months ago

@albe-rosado yes that would be helpful. Lmk what you need on my end. I don't have a Mac to verify anything so if you could get another user to check that would be great. Thanks.

albe-rosado commented 7 months ago

Nothing so far, I will start working on it soon. Thanks! Is there any place online you hang out, in case we want to discuss stuff? Thanks

No, I try to limit my exposure to the clear as much as possible. There is a monero ecosystem matrix channel I think. There is a nevekonet i2p irc server address in the i2p release server home page. http://c2m66oddrzozztxyzjegbdwtgbeiibq5vz2tpchmqamrzcahcfoq.b32.i2p/index.txt

I can join the i2p irc server there at 1200UTC daily and check messages. I will also check the GH daily if I have time.

Just wanted to touch base, I have been pretty busy recently, but I have been working on Rust bindings for i2pd , the reason I went with i2pd is because is pretty fast, and is very easy to integrate with, as is just a portable binary supported on all major platforms and the team behind seems to be very active. i2p-zero in MacOS relies on an older version of JDK, I'm having a hard time even downloading, also it seems to not have a lot of work recently (maybe is defunct) . Next I will remove the hardcoded paths in the bindings package and have a POC of neveko using such bindings, which in my opinion would be great as we wont have to execute binaries from code. Regarding monerod, I will take a look to see if there is any Rust implementation or existing bindings. I will cut a CR once I have i2pd integrated. I'm open to any other idea.

@albe-rosado there has been mention of i2pd in other issues. The Rust bindings for i2pd would be a great and welcome addition. As for Rust bindings for Monero, I'm not aware of any. In the future it might be worth considering Cuprate integration, but that wouldn't be anytime soon. Thanks for the effort. Look forward to the POC.
