What do I mean by pivoting? Netx is currently organized by row: ``` | dialer | quicdialer | resolver | ... saving | | | | ... errorwrapping | | | | ... logging | | | | ... mocking/sys | | | | ... ``` Every row needs to implement saving, errorwrapping, logging, mocking (or adapting to the system or to some underlying library). This causes cross package dependencies and, in turn, complexity. For example, we need the `trace` package for supporting saving. And `dialer`, `quickdialer`, et al. need to depend on such a package. The same goes for errorwrapping. This arrangement further complicates testing. For example, I am currently working on https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/1505 and I realize it need to repeat integration tests in multiple places. Let's say instead we pivot the above matrix as follows: ``` | saving | errorwrapping | logging | ... dialer | | | | ... quicdialer | | | | ... logging | | | | ... mocking/sys | | | | ... ... ``` In this way, now every row contains everything related to a specific action to perform. We can now share code without relying on extra support packages. What's more, we can write tests and, judding from the way in which things are made, it seems we only need integration testing in `errorwrapping` because it's where data quality matters whereas, in all other cases, unit testing is fine. I am going, therefore, to proceed with these changes and "pivot" `netx`. Hopefully, it won't be too painful. |

OONI Probe Client Library and CLI
The next generation OONI Probe: client library and Command Line Interface.
User setup
Please, follow the instructions at ooni.org/install/cli
to install ooniprobe
. If we do not support your use case, please let us know.
Once ooniprobe
is installed, try ooniprobe help
to get interactive help.
Reporting issues
Please, report issues with this codebase at github.com/ooni/probe.
Please, make sure you tag such issues using the ooni/probe-cli
label.
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.
