Peer-to-peer demo

P2PD includes a simple text-based program to try out it’s p2p networking features without fooling around with code. After installing the software try the command python3 -m p2pd.demo

The software will then load your network interfaces and start a peer-to-peer node. You can select some basic options for the program such as connecting to another peer. You can use the same software to spin up another node to connect to.

Or run the software on another machine, get its address, and try that. Should be a good way to see what the project is about. Output is similar to the capture listed bellow.

Node started = addr
Node port = 47317
Node nickname = your_addr.peer

(0) Connect to a node using its nickname or address.
(1) Start accepting connections (this stops the input loop)
(2) Start additional node for testing (for self punch.)
(3) Register a unique nickname for your node.
(4) Exit program.

Select option: 0
Enter nodes nickname or address: some.peer
