OnionShare Desktop
Building OnionShare
Start by getting the source code and changing to the desktop
folder:
git clone https://github.com/onionshare/onionshare.git
cd onionshare/desktop
Make sure you have Python 3 installed. If you're using Windows or macOS, install version 3.10.1 from python.org. For Windows, make sure to install the 32-bit (x86) version, and to check the box to add python to the path on the first page of the installer.
Make sure you have poetry installed, and then install the dependencies:
poetry install
Install platform-specific dependencies
Linux
In Ubuntu 20.04 you need the libxcb-xinerama0
package installed.
Download Tor Browser and extract the binaries:
poetry run ./scripts/get-tor-linux.py
macOS
Download Tor Browser and extract the binaries:
poetry run ./scripts/get-tor-osx.py
Windows
These instructions include adding folders to the path in Windows. To do this, go to Start and type "advanced system settings", and open "View advanced system settings" in the Control Panel. Click Environment Variables. Under "System variables" double-click on Path. From there you can add and remove folders that are available in the PATH.
Download and install 7-Zip from https://7-zip.org/download.html. I downloaded 7z1900.exe
. Add C:\Program Files (x86)\7-Zip
to your path.
Download Tor Browser and extract the binaries:
poetry run python scripts\get-tor-windows.py
Compile dependencies
Install Go. The simplest way to make sure everything works is to install Go by following these instructions. (In Windows, make sure to install the 32-bit version of Go, such as go1.17.3.windows-386.msi
.)
Download and compile meek-client
