Overview of I2P For Go

A wide variety of tools exist which make it easy to use I2P as a network layer in Go applications. These tools integrate at various levels and provide different functionality, but virtually anything is possible using I2P and Go. Eventually, this page will serve as a website for go-i2p, but for now it serves to track the state of various ways of using Go to interact with I2P.

Stuff that works:

net.Conn and net.PacketConn interface implementations

These act as drop-in replacements for net.Conn and net.PacketConn in your code and libraries. When used correctly, they make it easy to adapt Go applications to I2P. All net.Conn and net.PacketConn interface implementations in Go

• onramp
• goSam
• sam3

I2PControl-RPC Libraries

• go-i2pcontrol
• i2p-control

Proxies and Application-Layer Adapters

• sam-forwarder an I2PTunnel-alike which accepts i2pd-style config files
• go-i2p-bt a Bittorrent library configured using onramp which tracks SAMv3 development and has similar features to I2PSnark

Stuff in Progress:

• go-i2p
