FAQ

What is this?

wisteria is a minimal terminal arbor client. It is capable of both speaking the Sprout protocol to an Arbor relay and discovering new arbor nodes on disk in order to receive messages.

Why is rendering new nodes on disk useful?

It lets you acquire nodes from essentially any transport. You can store your history in syncthing, dropbox, a mounted google drive folder, or whatever else. This allows you to configure history replication via a variety of protocols and techniques in addition to Sprout.

Developing

Want to work on wisteria? Here's how to do common stuff:

Build a customized version

If you've modified your code and want to take it for a spin, you can use:

go build .

This will place a wisteria executable in the current working directory. You can run that with:

./wisteria
Running the tests

You can run all of our tests by doing:

go test -v -coverprofile=coverage.profile ./...

This will give you lots of feedback about the tests, and will also generate a code coverage report. You can view the code coverage in your browser by running:

go tool cover -html=coverage.profile
