This repository is part of GNS ecosystem.
It provides infrastructure component for the providers, that allows NAT traversing [todo: add link to specs] for some categories of mobile users.

• Public IPv4 address (IPv6 is also planned) if you plan to provide world-wide available service;
• Redis server or redis cluster, if you plan to deploy multiple instances;
• python 3.6+ (see requirements.txt)

1. cd <target directory>
2. git clone https://github.com/GEO-Protocol/gns_provider_centrifuge.git ./
3. virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3.5 venv
4. source venv/bin/activate
5. [optional] pip install pip --upgrade
6. pip install -r requirements.txt
7. Edit conf.json according to your environment. (nano conf.json)

It is recommended to run the server as a systemd service to automatically reload it in case of any failure.
