NAME

       dhtnode - a simple OpenDHT command line node runner.

SYNOPSIS

       dhtnode [-h]

       dhtnode [-v [-l logfile]] [-i] [-d] [-n network_id] [-p local_port] [-b bootstrap_host[:port]]

DESCRIPTION

       This  program  runs  a  simple  OpenDHT node in an interactive way. If you rather want to run the node in
       daemon mode, option '-d' is provided. When running  in  the  interactive  shell,  you  benefit  from  the
       readline  capabilities for writing your commands such as command history. Here are the available commands
       in the interactive shell:

           h, help    Print this help message.
           q, quit    Quit the program.
           log        Start/stop printing DHT logs.

           Node information:
           ll         Print basic information and stats about the current node.
           ls         Print basic information about current searches.
           ld         Print basic information about currenty stored values on this node.
           lr         Print the full current routing table of this node

           Operations on the DHT:
           b ip:port             Ping potential node at given IP address/port.
           g [key]               Get values at [key].
           l [key]               Listen for value changes at [key].
           p [key] [str]         Put string value at [key].
           s [key] [str]         Put string value at [key], signed with our generated
                                 private key.
           e [key] [dest] [str]  Put string value at [key], encrypted for [dest] with
                                 its public key (if found).

OPTIONS

       -h     Prints some help.

       -v     Enable the verbose mode (log to stdout by default)

       -l log_file
              Write log to file instead of stdout

       -i     Generate cryptographic identity for the node.

       -d     Run the program in daemon mode (will fork in the background).

       -n network_id
              Specify the network id. This let you connect to distinct networks and prevents the  merge  of  two
              different networks (available since OpenDHT v0.6.1).

       -p local_port
              Use port local_port for the program to bind to.

       -b bootstrap_host[:port]
              The program needs to be given a node to connect to the network. You use this option to provide the
              ip address of that node.
