# PeerSpeak + PixelPass — CachyOS/Arch test pack

A single **split PKGBUILD** that builds the latest code from the public gitbutter
repos and installs **both** programs at once:

- `peerspeak` — decentralized P2P voice chat
- `pixelpass` — P2P screen sharing (peerspeak launches it for the screen-share button)

## Build & install (one command)

```sh
git clone https://gitbutter.xyz/mollusk/peerspeak.git
cd peerspeak/packaging/test-pack
makepkg -si
```

`makepkg -si` auto-installs every dependency via pacman before building —
including the Rust toolchain itself (the `cargo` makedepend is provided by the
`rust` package), `git`, `pkgconf`, pipewire + opus for peerspeak, and the
gstreamer/VA-API stack for pixelpass. The only prerequisite is the `base-devel`
group (which provides `makepkg`). If you already use `rustup`, that satisfies the
`cargo` makedepend and the `rust` package won't be pulled in — no conflict.

When it finishes you'll have `peerspeak` and `pixelpass` on your PATH at
`/usr/bin`. To rebuild later with fresh upstream code, re-run `makepkg -si`; the
git sources re-pull `main` and the version bumps automatically.

> Skip the test step with `makepkg -si --nocheck` for a faster build.

## Running the cross-internet test

1. Launch `peerspeak` on both machines.
2. One person **creates** a room and shares the room code/ticket with the other.
3. The other **joins** with that code.
4. iroh does NAT hole-punching automatically; if a direct path can't be made it
   falls back to a public n0 relay — **no port forwarding required**.
5. Allow the app through any local firewall if prompted (outbound UDP / QUIC;
   nothing needs to be opened inbound for relay mode).

### What we're smoke-testing
- Two real humans, two networks, over the internet.
- Mic capture + remote playback both directions, no crackle/dropouts.
- Mute / deafen, push-to-talk.
- Text chat in-room.
- Avatars (presets + custom upload) show up on the other side.
- Screen share: click the screen-share control → it launches `pixelpass`; the
  viewer opens in `mpv` on the receiving side.
- Notification chimes (join/leave/etc.).
- Leave / rejoin cleanly.

If anything misbehaves, grab the log path peerspeak prints on startup and the
exact repro steps.
