This client library is general purpose in the sense that it can be used to build arbitrarily complex messaging systems using Katzenpost. However note that right now it only supports strict SURB based query response protocols to interactive mix network services. These services can be written in any langauge and plugged into the Providers. Furthermore this client does not yet perform any retransmissions if a packet gets dropped by the mix network.

Travis tests may sometimes fail if they take too long.

Our gitlab tests are located here:

https://gitlab.techcultivation.org/katzenpost/client/-/jobs

To run the optional docker tests firstly, see our docker repo and start your local dockerized mix network:

https://github.com/katzenpost/katzenpost/docker

A couple of minutes after startup run the tests like this:

GORACE=history_size=7 go test -tags=docker_test -race -v -run Docker
