- Install c-toxcore (libtoxav and the DNS client are not required) https://github.com/TokTok/c-toxcore/blob/master/INSTALL.md#build-manually
- git clone https://github.com/gjedeer/tuntox.git
- cd tuntox
- make
The makefile creates a static binary by default. If you're not a fan of static binaries, make tuntox_nostatic
.
One reason to do so may be if you'd like to resolve hostnames on the tuntox server (invoke client with -L 80:reddit.com:80
instead of -L 80:198.41.208.138:80
).
Static linking breaks hostname resolution, but IMHO the pros overweight the cons.
c-toxcore is the only direct dependency. c-toxcore requires libsodium and libevent_pthreads at the time of writing this, please refer to their install instructions for the current dependencies. Also pkg-config is required.
Basically the same as above but:
- static compiling is removed - you can't do this on MacOS platform (no, just don't)
- because of removed
-static
you can't resolve hostnames (you can always put it intohosts
file in your system)
If you'd like to build on Mac do: make -f Makefile.mac
