fcpVersion = “0.3.0”

PyFreenet is a suite of command-line freenet applications, as well as a powerful Python library, for freenet 0.7.

This pyFreenet release includes:

• command-line freenet client applications, which will get installed as executable commands in your PATH, including:

  • freesitemgr - a simple yet flexible freesite management utility

  • fcpnames - utility for managing the new ‘name service’ layer

  • fproxyproxy - an experimental http proxy that sits on top of fproxy, and translates human-friendly site names transparently

  • fcpget - a single key fetcher

  • fcpput - a single key inserter

  • fcpgenkey - a keypair generator

  • fcpinvertkey - generate new SSK/USK keypairs

  • fcpredirect - insert a redirect from one ‘key’ to another ‘key’.

• an XML-RPC server for freenet access, which can be run standalone, or easily integrated into an existing website

• python package ‘fcp’, containing classes for interacting with freenet.

To get good API documentation, run:

$ epydoc -n “pyFreenet API manual” -o html fcp

When you install this package (refer INSTALL), you should end up with a command ‘freesitemgr’ on your PATH.

‘freesitemgr’ is a console-based freesite insertion utility which keeps your freesite configs and status in a single config file (~/.freesitemgr, unless you specify otherwise).

Invoke ‘freesitemgr -h’ (or if on windows, ‘freesitemgr.py -h’) and read the options.
