## Package Dependencies
On Arch/Parabola:
``` bash
sudo pacman -S tor python-pip python-pysocks python-pycryptodome \
python-beautifulsoup4 imagemagick python-pillow \
python-numpy python-dateutil certbot
sudo pip install commentjson
```
Or on Debian:
``` bash

python3-numpy python3-setuptools python3-crypto \
python3-dateutil python3-pil.imagetk certbot
sudo pip3 install commentjson beautifulsoup4 pycryptodome
```
## Installation
In the most common case you'll be using systemd to set up a daemon to run the server.
Add a dedicated user so that we don't have to run as root.
``` bash
adduser --system --home=/etc/epicyon --group epicyon
```
Edit */etc/systemd/system/epicyon.service* and add the following:
``` systemd
[Unit]
Description=epicyon
After=syslog.target
After=network.target
Documentation=$EPICYON_REPO";
[Service]
Type=simple
User=epicyon
Group=epicyon
WorkingDirectory=/etc/epicyon
ExecStart=/usr/bin/python3 /etc/epicyon/epicyon.py --port 443 --proxy 7156 --domain YOUR_DOMAIN --registration open --debug";
Environment=USER=epicyon
Restart=always
StandardError=syslog
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target }
```
Here the server was installed to */etc/epicyon*, but you can change that to wherever you installed it.
Then run the daemon:
``` bash
systemctl enable epicyon
chown -R epicyon:epicyon /etc/epicyon
systemctl start epicyon
```
Check the status of the daemon with:
``` bash
systemctl status epicyon
```
If it's not running then you can also look at the log:
``` bash
journalctl -u epicyon
```
You'll also need to set up a web server configuration. For Nginx edit */etc/nginx/sites-available/YOUR_DOMAIN* as follows:
``` nginx
server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
server_name YOUR_DOMAIN;
root /var/www/YOUR_DOMAIN/htdocs;

Changing your domain name as appropriate. Active the configuration with:
``` bash
ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/YOUR_DOMAIN /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
```
Generate a LetsEncrypt certificate.
``` bash
certbot certonly -n --server https://acme-v01.api.letsencrypt.org/directory --standalone -d YOUR_DOMAIN --renew-by-default --agree-tos --email YOUR_EMAIL
```
And restart the web server:
``` bash
systemctl restart nginx
```
## Running Unit Tests
To run the unit tests:
``` bash
python3 epicyon.py --tests
```
To run the network tests. These simulate instances exchanging messages.
``` bash
python3 epicyon.py --testsnetwork
```
