DHTNODE(1)		     General Commands Manual		      DHTNODE(1)

NAME
     dhtnode - a simple OpenDHT command line node runner.

SYNOPSIS
     dhtnode  [-h]  [-v [-l logfile] [-L]] [-i [--save-identity file]] [-d] [-s]
     [-n network_id] [-p local_port] [-b  bootstrap_host[:port]]  [--certificate
     file]  [--privkey	file] [--privkey-password password] [--proxyserver port]
     [--proxyclient server]

DESCRIPTION
     Runs an OpenDHT node, with a CLI (default) or as a  daemon  (with	'-d'  or
     '-s').  Commands available in the interactive shell are:
	 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/stderr by default)

     -l log_file
	    Write log to file instead of stdout/stderr

     -L     Write log to syslog instead of stdout/stderr

     -i     Generate cryptographic identity for the node.

     --save-identity file
	    Save  generated identity (certificate and private key) to given file
	    prefix.

     --certificate file
	    Load identity certificate from given file.

     --privkey file
	    Load identity private key from given file.

     --privkey-password password
	    Password to use for private key encryption or decryption (optional).

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

     -s     Run the program in service mode (non-forking daemon).

     -D     Enables multicast automatic local peer discovery.

     -f file
	    Specify a file path to persist/load the node state.

     -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 UDP 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.

     --proxyserver local_port
	    Run a proxy server bound to this DHT node on HTTP port local_port

     --proxyclient server
	    Run this DHT node in proxy client mode, and connect to server
