nymstr-server

Server for the nymstr platform providing user discovery and message routing

nymstr-server

Discovery node and P2P message relay service for the Nymstr messaging system, built on the Nym mixnet.

What it does

  • User registration and directory lookups
  • P2P message routing via SURB
  • Group server discovery
  • MLS key package exchange

Quick Start

cp .env.example .env
cargo run --release

On first run, the server generates a BIP39 seed phrase. Write it down - it protects all encrypted keys.

To generate server keys manually:

cargo run --release -- --generate

  • NYM_CLIENT_ID - Unique identifier (default: default)
  • DATABASE_PATH - SQLite database (default: storage/discovery.db)
  • KEYS_DIR - PGP keys directory (default: storage/keys)
