libp2p-nodetrust

Why not give every zeronet node an ID.node.zeronet.io address and certificate?

Why

ZeroNetJS browser support requires ZeroNet node to be dialable from the browser. Which unfortunatly does not work.

The only solution would be to make the browser connect to some websocket-capable nodes.

Problem: HTTP on HTTPS is disabled due to security.

Solution: HTTPS enabled websocket nodes

How

The ZeroNet client sends the nodetrust command to the server along with a privatekey which is an alphanumeric string (from which the Domain Name is derived).

The Server sets up dns and responds with the certificate, key and domain name.

The client launches a wss server with the given certificate and sends the nodetrustUpdate command to the server every 4 minutes to keep the DNS entry alive.

Development

Client

Run nodemon index.js -d 1

Server

cd into server

Run bash genca.sh once

Run nodemon src/bin.js ./config.dev.json
