Repository organization

Every top-level directory contains an explanatory README file.

OONIProbe

Be sure you have golang >= 1.16 and a C compiler (when developing for Windows, you need Mingw-w64 installed). You can build using:

go build -v ./cmd/ooniprobe

This will generate a binary called ooniprobe in the current directory.

Android bindings

Make sure you have GNU make installed, then run:

./mk android

Builds bindings for Android. (Add OONI_PSIPHON_TAGS="" if you cannot clone private repositories in the https://github.com/ooni namespace.)

The generated bindings are (manually) pushed to the Maven Central package repository. The instructions explaining how to integrate these bindings are published along with the release notes.

iOS bindings

Make sure you have GNU make installed, then run:

./mk ios

Builds bindings for iOS. (Add OONI_PSIPHON_TAGS="" if you cannot clone private repositories in the https://github.com/ooni namespace.)

The generated bindings are (manually) added to GitHub releases. The instructions explaining how to integrate these bindings are published along with the release notes.

miniooni

Miniooni is the experimental OONI client used for research. Compile using:

go build -v ./internal/cmd/miniooni

This will generate a binary called miniooni in the current directory.

Updating dependencies

go get -u -v ./... && go mod tidy

Releasing

Create an issue according to the routine release template and perform any item inside the check-list.

We build releases using ./mk, which requires GNU make. Try the ./mk help|less command for detailed usage.
