## Installation
|
|
|
|
This repository uses submodules for
|
|
[miniupnp](https://github.com/miniupnp/miniupnp) and
|
|
[libnatpmp](https://github.com/miniupnp/libnatpmp), so either clone it all in
|
|
one go with `git clone --recurse-submodules <REPO_URL>` or clone it normally
|
|
and then run `git submodule update --init --recursive`.
|
|
|
|
Install it using Nimble:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
nimble install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Dependencies
|
|
|
|
- [nim-result](https://github.com/arnetheduck/nim-result)
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
See the [examples](examples) directory for some generic usage.
|
|
|
|
A real-world example, complete with periodic port mapping renewal in a separate thread, is available in [nim-eth](https://github.com/status-im/nim-eth/blob/32bb1f35d75f226938fc560e15690e3251d7f246/eth/net/nat.nim) and [nimbus](https://github.com/status-im/nimbus/blob/a89b0d677a263cac38987ce39b8b066a746d3b99/nimbus/nimbus.nim#L61).
|
|
|
|
By default, your code will be linked to bundled static libraries. If you want to dynamically link against your system libraries,
|
|
pass the "-d:miniupnpcUseSystemLibs" and/or "-d:libnatpmpUseSystemLibs" flags to the Nim compiler.
|
|
|
|
Let's see both scenarios in action:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
nimble buildBundledLibs
|
|
|
|
# statically linked against the bundled libminiupnpc.a:
|
|
nim c -r -f examples/miniupnpc_test.nim
|
|
# dynamically linked against the system libminiupnpc.so:
|
|
nim c -r -f -d:miniupnpcUseSystemLibs examples/miniupnpc_test.nim
|
|
|
|
# statically linked against the bundled libnatpmp.a:
|
|
nim c -r -f examples/natpmp_test.nim
|
|
# dynamically linked against the system libnatpmp.so:
|
|
nim c -r -f -d:libnatpmpUseSystemLibs examples/natpmp_test.nim
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## TODO
|
|
|
|
miniupnpc:
|
|
|
|
- add IPv6 pinhole helper procs for the Miniupnp type
