Connect to other peers running holesail-server. This client can connect to servers and relay the data on your system locally. It is supposed to be used as a Node.js module.

To install the Holesail Client module, use npm:

npm install holesail-client

To use the Holesail Client module, first require the module in your code:

const holesailClient = require('holesail-client');

Then, create a new instance of the holesailClient class:

const test = new holesailClient("ff14220e8155f8cd2bbeb2f6f2c3b7ed0212023449bc64b9435ec18c46b8de7f");

If you are connecting securely you need to pass the "secure" flag [Optional but recommended]

const test = new holesailClient("ff14220e8155f8cd2bbeb2f6f2c3b7ed0212023449bc64b9435ec18c46b8de7f","secure");

You can connect to holesail-server network by calling the connect method:

test.connect({port:5000, address:"127.0.0.1"}, () => {
    console.log("Listening on 127.0.0.1:5000")
});

Once you're done using the client, you can destroy the connection to the DHT network by calling the destroy method:

test.destroy();

Here's a simple example of how to use the Holesail Client module:

const holesailClient = require('holesail-client');
let test = new holesailClient("ff14220e8155f8cd2bbeb2f6f2c3b7ed0212023449bc64b9435ec18c46b8de7f");

test.connect({port:8000, address:"127.0.0.1"}, () => {
        console.log("Connected")
    }
)

setTimeout(() => {
    console.log(test.destroy())
}, 5000);

Create a new instance of the holesailClient class. The key parameter is a hexadecimal string representing the peer's key.

For connecting securely you should pass a secure parameter, the server also needs to be running securely:

new holesailClient(key,"secure")

Connect to the DHT network. The port parameter is the port number to connect to, and the address parameter is the IP address of the target host.

Destroy the connection to the DHT network.
