Not sure how that will fly for Debian/Ubuntu. Or, more generally, introduces that dependency. However, there's no deb or rpm for it, so it introduces the need to pip install at least one package on those platforms (for the first time) if building/testing from source. Requires the (testing) user to pip install pysha3 if they don't have it already (I encountered an issue on Debian 9 whereby, if the version of Python is too low, the logic that uses hashlib doesn't quite work ( hashlib.sha3_256), but pysha3 does. I'm deliberately basing this on the receiver-mode-gui branch because it has so many other breaking changes that it's not worth branching off of develop branch anymore.įavours v3 onions if the Tor version is new enough You may also subscribe to our mailing list here, and join our public Keybase team here. You can set up your development environment to build OnionShare yourself by following these instructions. Check this wiki page for more information. OnionShare may also be available in your Linux distribution's package manager. You can download OnionShare for Windows and macOS from the OnionShare website.įor macOS you can also use Homebrew: brew cask install onionshareįor Ubuntu-like Linux distributions, you can use this PPA: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:micahflee/ppa ![]() To learn how OnionShare works, what its security properties are, and how to use it, check out the wiki. So long as you share the unguessable web address in a secure way (like pasting it in an encrypted messaging app), no one but you and the person you're sharing with can access the files. Unlike services like email, Google Drive, DropBox, WeTransfer, or nearly any other way people typically send files to each other, when you use OnionShare you don't give any companies access to the files that you're sharing. It doesn't require setting up a separate server, using a third party file-sharing service, or even logging into an account. It works by starting a web server directly on your computer and making it accessible as an unguessable Tor web address that others can load in Tor Browser to download files from you, or upload files to you. OnionShare is an open source tool for securely and anonymously sending and receiving files using Tor onion services.
