Reticulum

The cryptographic networking stack for building resilient networks anywhere. This packages requires you have python and pip installed on your computer. This should come as standard on most operating systems released since 2020.

Local Installation

If you do not have access to the Internet, or would prefer to install Reticulum directly from this RNode, you can use the following instructions.

  • Download the {PKG_BASE_rns} package from this RNode and unzip it
  • Install it with the command pip install ./{PKG_NAME_rns}
  • Verify the installed Reticulum version by running rnstatus --version

Online Installation

If you are connected to the Internet, you can try to install the latest version of Reticulum via the pip package manager.

  • Install Reticulum by running the command pip install rns
  • Verify the installed Reticulum version by running rnstatus --version

Dependencies

If the installation has problems resolving dependencies, you can try to install the python-cryptography, python-netifaces and python-pyserial packages from your systems package manager, if they are locally available. If this is not possible, you please read the Getting Started section of the Reticulum Manual for more detailed information. Specifically the Pure-Python Reticulum section may be of use.
