# MuWire - Easy Anonymous File-Sharing
MuWire is an easy to use file-sharing program which offers anonymity using [I2P technology](http://geti2p.net). It works on any platform Java works on, including Windows, MacOS, Linux, Rapsberry Pi.
The current stable release - 0.7.7 is avaiable for download at https://muwire.com. The latest plugin build and instructions how to install the plugin are available inside I2P at http://muwire.i2p.
You can find technical documentation in the [doc] folder. Also check out the [Wiki] for various other documentation.
## Building
You need JDK 9 or newer. After installing that and setting up the appropriate paths, just type
```
./gradlew clean assemble
```
If you want to run the unit tests, type
```
./gradlew clean build
```
If you want to build binary bundles that do not depend on Java or I2P, see the [muwire-pkg] project. If you want to package MuWire for a Linux distribution, see the [Packaging] wiki page.
## Running the GUI
Type
```
./gradlew gui:run
```
The setup wizard will ask you for the host and port of an I2P or I2Pd router.
## Running the Web UI / Plugin
There is a Web-based UI under development. It is intended to be run as a plugin to the Java I2P router. Instructions how to build it are available at the wiki [Plugin] page.
## Running the CLI
Look inside `cli-lanterna/build/distributions`. Untar/unzip one of the `shadow` files and then run the jar contained inside by typing `java -jar cli-lanterna-x.y.z-all.jar` in a terminal. The CLI options are documented here [cli options]
The CLI is in maintenance mode and will not be getting any new features.

MuWire is available as a Docker image. For more information see the [Docker] page.
