All Known Implementing Classes:
I2PClientImpl, I2PSimpleClient

public interface I2PClient
Define the standard means of interacting with the I2P system

An I2PClient contains no state, it is just a facility for creating private key files and generating sessions from existing private key files.

    • PROP_SIGTYPE

      static final String PROP_SIGTYPE
      Destination signature type property. @since 0.9.12.

    • DEFAULT_SIGTYPE

      static final SigType DEFAULT_SIGTYPE
      Default signature type. @since 0.9.12.
    • PROP_FAST_RECEIVE

      static final String PROP_FAST_RECEIVE
      For router->client payloads.

      If false, the router will send the MessageStatus, the client must respond with a ReceiveMessageBegin, the router will send the MessagePayload, and the client respond with a ReceiveMessageEnd.

      If true, the router will send the MessagePayload immediately, and will not send a MessageStatus. The client will not send ReceiveMessageBegin or ReceiveMessageEnd.

      Default false, but the implementation in this package sets to true.

  • Method Details

    • createSession

      I2PSession createSession(InputStream destKeyStream, Properties options) throws I2PSessionException
      Create a new client session for the Destination stored at the destKeyStream using the specified options to both connect to the router, to instruct the router how to handle the new session, and to configure the end to end encryption.

      As of 0.9.19, defaults in options are honored.

      Parameters:
      destKeyStream - location from which to read the Destination, PrivateKey, and SigningPrivateKey from, format is specified in PrivateKeyFile
      options - set of options to configure the router with, if null will use System properties
      Returns:
      new session allowing a Destination to receive all of its messages and send messages to any other Destination.
      Throws:
      I2PSessionException - if there is a problem creating the session
    • createDestination

      Destination createDestination(OutputStream destKeyStream) throws I2PException, IOException
      Create a new destination with the default certificate creation properties and store it, along with the private encryption and signing keys at the specified location.

      Caller must close stream.

      Parameters:
      destKeyStream - stream to write the destination and keys to
      Returns:
      the new destination, whose keys have been written to the stream
      Throws:
      I2PException - on I2P protocol error
      IOException - on IO error
    • createDestination

      Destination createDestination(OutputStream destKeyStream, SigType type) throws I2PException, IOException
      Create a destination with the given signature type. It will have a null certificate for DSA 1024/160 and KeyCertificate otherwise. This is not bound to the I2PClient, you must supply the data back again in createSession(InputStream, Properties).

      Caller must close stream.

      Parameters:
      destKeyStream - location to write out the destination, PrivateKey, and SigningPrivateKey, format is specified in PrivateKeyFile
      type - the signature type for the destination
      Returns:
      the new destination, whose keys have been written to the stream
      Throws:
      I2PException - on I2P protocol error
      IOException - on IO error
    • createDestination

      Destination createDestination(OutputStream destKeyStream, Certificate cert) throws I2PException, IOException
      Create a new destination with the given certificate and store it, along with the private encryption and signing keys at the specified location.

      Caller must close stream.

      Parameters:
      destKeyStream - stream to write the destination and keys to
      cert - certificate to tie to the destination
      Returns:
      newly created destination
      Throws:
      I2PException - on I2P protocol error
      IOException - on IO error
