Usage

share enables transmission of secrets or messages between teammates using different machines and behind different networks. In order to share a secret, the sender and reciver need to both get share as described above and then follow the below instructions.

The receiver:

Open a terminal or cd to where share was installed, then:

share receive

share starts in listen mode and assigns you a PeerId and picks a random port to start on. (An optional -p flag is available to specify a port). A reponse like below should be displayed:

INFO  Your PeerId is: 12D3KooWA768LzHMatxkjD1f9DrYW375GZJr6MHPCNEdDtHeTNRt

INFO  Listening on "/ip4/172.19.192.1/tcp/54654"

INFO  Listening on "/ip4/192.168.0.197/tcp/54654"

INFO  Listening on "/ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/54654"

INFO  Listening on "/ip4/157.245.40.97/tcp/4001/p2p/12D3KooWDpJ7As7BWAwRMfu1VU2WCqNjvq387JEYKDBj4kx6nXTN/p2p-circuit/p2p/12D3KooWA768LzHMatxkjD1f9DrYW375GZJr6MHPCNEdDtHeTNRt"

The sender:

Obtain the PeerId of the teammate you wish to send a secret to, then:

share send -r 12D3KooWLaLnHjKhQmB46jweVXCDKVy4AL58a4S4ZgHZGuJkzBf9 -s "hi,welcome"

share will print your IP address and your PeerId. To verify that a connection was established and your machine can talk to your teammates, you should see a similar thing like below in your terminal:

   INFO  Your PeerId is: 12D3KooWRpqX3QUvPNHXW5utkceLbx2b1LKfuAKa3iLdXXBGB2bY

   INFO  Listening on "/ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/40479"

   INFO  Listening on "/ip4/192.168.212.254/tcp/40479"

   INFO  Established connection to 12D3KooWA768LzHMatxkjD1f9DrYW375GZJr6MHPCNEdDtHeTNRt via /ip4/157.245.40.97/tcp/4001/p2p/12D3KooWDpJ7As7BWAwRMfu1VU2WCqNjvq387JEYKDBj4kx6nXTN/p2p-circuit/p2p/12D3KooWA768LzHMatxkjD1f9DrYW375GZJr6MHPCNEdDtHeTNRt

The sender then attempts to send the secret and if it is successful, share relays messages to both parties notifying them of status and the progress of the secret sharing session.
