Desktop client for Mysterium Network

mysterium-vpn-desktop

This is a rewrite of Mysterium VPN desktop with the following goals:

• Improved performance
• Improved UX
• Simplified codebase
• Integrated payments

Logging

App

In development mode, application logs are printed to the console.
In a bundled application:

• Linux: ~/.config/MysteriumVPN/logs/*.log
• macOS: ~/Library/Logs/MysteriumVPN/*.log
• Windows: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\MysteriumVPN\logs\*.log

Node

~/.mysterium/logs/mysterium-node.log

Supervisor

• Linux/macOS: /var/log/myst_supervisor.log
• Windows: %PROGRAMDATA%\MystSupervisor\myst_supervisor.log

Getting started (development)

1. Install and build the project

   yarn && yarn build
   

2. Start (webpack dev server with hot reload):

   yarn dev
   

Using a custom Mysterium Node version

Instead of using prebuilt Node binary (specified by @mysteriumnetwork/node version in package.json), you may build Node from sources and start it in daemon mode with required permissions, e.g.:

git clone https://github.com/mysteriumnetwork/node
cd node
mage build
mage daemon

App will try to connect to the existing instance instead of launching one of its own.

Packaging for distribution

Required env variables (macOS):

• APPLEID
• APPLEIDPASS (generate an app-specific password for this)

yarn bundle
