NEVEKO

NEVidebla-EKOnomia (invisible economy)

gpg and i2p made simple for E2EE marketplace, messaging and more

About

• send messages over the invisible internet
• vanity base32 addresses (advanced)
• automated mandatory gpg key encryption
• self-hosted i2p marketplace
• xmr multisig / payment integration

Dev

• stack - rust (egui, rocket), lmdb, i2p-zero, monero(rpc, daemon), gpg
• install dependencies
  • ubuntu example: sudo apt update -y && sudo apt upgrade -y
  • sudo apt install -y libssl-dev build-essential libgpgme-dev
• git clone https://github.com/creating2morrow/neveko
• cd neveko && ./scripts/build_all_and_run.sh "-- -h"
• Example to start neveko with remote stagenet node for development:
  • ./scripts/build_all_and_run.sh "-- --monero-rpc-daemon http://stagenet.community.rino.io:38081 --remote-node --monero-location /path/to/monero-x86_64-linux-gnu-v0.18.2.2/ --i2p-zero-dir /path/to/i2p-zero-linux.v1.21/"
  • the --monero-location flag is needed even when using a remote node because neveko has its own monero-wallet-rpc instance
• gui built with rust egui

Installation Mananger

• additional required software can be downloaded from the gui home or Binaries links below
• hashes are in core lib.rs
• download i2p-zero, put the path in the connection manager or cli --i2p-zero-dir flag
• download monero, update connection manager or cli
  • --monero-blockchain-dir, where to put lmdb for monero (e.g. path/to/ssd)
  • --monero-location, path to monero download

Contributing and Releasing

| branch |                 |tag and release|
  dev     -----------------|-------------------------------------------->
  v0.1.0  -----------tag v0.1.0 (delete branch)
  v0.2.0                   |-------------------------------------------->
  main    -------------------------------------------------------------->

• code on dev branch
• run ./scripts/fmtall.sh before committing
• pull request to dev branch
• todo => TODO(name): detailed work
• docs on all pub fn and pub struct
• merge dev to vX.X.X
• merge vX.X.X to main
• tag release v.X.X.X every friday (if stable changes)
• release binaries from the cargo-build-release workflow with notes
• create next v.X.X+1.X branch and delete old release branch
• release bug fixes as appropriate to v.X.X.X+1 branch when ready

Workflows

name	branch	purpose
cargo-build	main,dev	ensure code compilation and build success
cargo-audit	main,dev	run security audit against RustSec database
cargo-build-release	v0.*	publish production ready binaries

API

• remote/programmatic access
• secured by wallet signing
• jwt and jwp
• see curl.md

Binaries

• neveko-auth - internal auth server
• neveko-contact - internal add contacts server
• neveko-gui - primary user interface
• neveko-market - internal marketplace admin server
• neveko-message - internal message tx/read etc. server
• neveko - external primary server for contact share, payment, market, message rx etc.
• monerod - (not included) monero-wallet-rpc needs this
  • can be overriden with remote node
  • use the --remote-node flag
• monero-wallet-rpc - (not included) interface for xmr wallet ops
• i2p-zero - (not included) tunnel creation and http proxy

most of the complex logic stays in neveko-core, exported from lib.rs

Donations

This is just a hobby project but if anything here is useful donations are much appreciated! No need to send xmr, donating time is fine. Just test code if you can and open issues. Thanks!
