## Background

Libp2p nodes acting as circuit relay aim to establish connectivity between libp2p nodes (e.g. IPFS nodes) that wouldn't otherwise be able to establish a direct connection to each other.

A relay is needed in situations where nodes are behind NAT, reverse proxies, firewalls and/or simply don't support the same transports (e.g. go-libp2p vs. browser-libp2p). The circuit relay protocol exists to overcome those scenarios. Nodes with the `auto-relay` feature enabled can automatically bind themselves on a relay to listen for connections on their behalf.

You can read more in its [SPEC](https://github.com/libp2p/specs/tree/master/relay).

## Usage

### Install

```bash
> npm install --global libp2p-hop-relay-server
```

Now you can use the cli command `libp2p-hop-relay-server` to spawn an out of the box libp2p hop relay server.

### CLI

After installing the relay server, you can use its binary. It accepts several arguments: `--peerId`, `--listenMultiaddrs`, `--announceMultiaddrs`, `--metricsMultiaddr`, `--disableMetrics`, `--delegateMultiaddr` and `--disableAdvertise`.

```sh
libp2p-hop-relay-server [--peerId <jsonFilePath>] [--listenMultiaddrs <ma> ... <ma>] [--announceMultiaddrs <ma> ... <ma>] [--metricsMultiaddr <ma>] [--disableMetrics] [--delegateMultiaddr <ma>] [--disableAdvertise]
```

#### PeerId

You can create a [PeerId](https://github.com/libp2p/js-peer-id) via its [CLI](https://github.com/libp2p/js-peer-id#cli).

```sh
libp2p-hop-relay-server --peerId id.json
```

#### Multiaddrs

You can specify the libp2p rendezvous server listen and announce multiaddrs. This server is configured with [libp2p-tcp](https://github.com/libp2p/js-libp2p-tcp) and [libp2p-websockets](https://github.com/libp2p/js-libp2p-websockets) and addresses with this transports should be used. It can always be modified via the API.

```sh
libp2p-hop-relay-server --peerId id.json --listenMultiaddrs '/ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/15002/ws' '/ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/8000' --announceMultiaddrs '/dns4/test.io/tcp/443/wss/p2p/12D3KooWAuEpJKhCAfNcHycKcZCv9Qy69utLAJ3MobjKpsoKbrGA' '/dns6/test.io/tcp/443/wss/p2p/12D3KooWAuEpJKhCAfNcHycKcZCv9Qy69utLAJ3MobjKpsoKbrGA'
```

By default it listens on `/ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/15002/ws` and has no announce multiaddrs specified.

#### Metrics

Metrics are enabled by default on `/ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/8003` via Prometheus. This address can also be modified with:

```sh
libp2p-hop-relay-server --metricsMultiaddr '/ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/8000'
```

Moreover, metrics can also be disabled with:

```sh
libp2p-hop-relay-server --disableMetrics
```

#### Advertise

The relay server will advertise its HOP capability by default, using a delegate node on `/dns4/node0.delegate.ipfs.io/tcp/443/https`. This is important for peers that will try to find HOP relays on the network to bind themselves.

This advertise can be disabled with:

```sh
libp2p-hop-relay-server --disableAdvertise
```

You can also customize the delegate node to use with:

```sh
libp2p-hop-relay-server --delegateMultiaddr '/dns4/node1.delegate.ipfs.io/tcp/443/https'
```

Note: In the future this will leverage libp2p's [DHT](https://github.com/libp2p/js-libp2p-kad-dht).
