Hyperboria Peers API

An API for finding nearby peers for the Hyperboria network.

You'll need to install cjdns to connect.

Usage

Query the http server (in your browser or via the command line with curl or wget ) using:

your two letter continent code eu, na

your country's top level domain code ca us fr uk

some combination of all of these options.

Prefix your query with the API version (1) and the query type (currently, only location is supported).

Using the peers you find

Having already installed cjdns on your machine, and generated a configuration file, follow the instructions in the "Connect your node to your friend's node" section of the README.

This API may return peers which use IPv4, or IPv6 addresses. It's important that you add them to the correct section of your configuration file. You should find comments in the config file indicating which is which:

// Nodes to connect to (IPv4 only). "connectTo": {

IPv4 and IPv6 addresses can be easily distinguised.

An IPv4 is a series of four numbers separated by dots, like so: 123.456.78.90 .

An IPv6 is a series of hexadecimal digits (0-9 and a-f), contained within square brackets, and separated by colons, like so: [fe80::b606:f465:50ed:2bb]
