✨ I2PROUTER-NOWRAPPER 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the I2P manual section, and this one is the ✨ no-frills ✨ router starter. it's called i2prouter-nowrapper and it is literally exactly what it sounds like. no wrapper, no safety net, just vibes 🦋

🎀 NAME 🎀

i2prouter-nowrapper</purgle> — start the I2P router

(yeah. that's the whole name. it starts the I2P router. lowkey iconic for being that honest 💅)

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

i2prouter-nowrapper

that's it. no flags, no args, no drama. just type it and go ✨

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so what does this actually do? it starts the I2P router, but without the service wrapper. and bestie, that distinction matters a LOT:

  • the router will not restart if it crashes 😭 like, it just goes down and stays down. no auto-rescue, no guardian angel, nothing.
  • it uses the default memory size, which may not be enough for I2P. so you might be out here starving your router of RAM and it'll be struggling the whole time 🙈
fr fr, you should really use the i2prouter(1) script instead. this one is giving "I'll do it myself" energy and it does not always work out.

and the way that there are no options?? not a single one. zero flags. the whole thing is just a vibe check and a launch 🚀

oh and also — to stop the router, you don't do it from the terminal. you use your browser to access the router console. yes really. that's the exit door. iykyk 🌈

😤 REPORTING BUGS 😤

found something cursed? please enter a ticket on the I2P trac page. that's the move. don't just suffer in silence, bestie, the devs wanna know 🫶
