We have some flaky integration tests elsewhere that have no one place to ask about the state of the world. This makes LocalBackend be that place (as it's basically there anyway) but doesn't yet add the ForTest accessor method. This adds a LocalBackend.peers map[NodeID]NodeView that is incrementally updated as mutations arrive. And then we start moving away from using NetMap.Peers at runtime (UpdateStatus no longer uses it now). And remove another copy of NodeView in the LocalBackend nodeByAddr map. Change that to point into b.peers instead. Future changes will then start streaming whole-node-granularity peer change updates to WatchIPNBus clients, tracking statefully per client what each has seen. This will get the GUI clients from receiving less of a JSON storm of updates all the time.

Tailscale
Private WireGuard® networks made easy
Overview
This repository contains the majority of Tailscale's open source code.
Notably, it includes the tailscaled
daemon and
the tailscale
CLI tool. The tailscaled
daemon runs on Linux, Windows,
macOS, and to varying degrees
on FreeBSD and OpenBSD. The Tailscale iOS and Android apps use this repo's
code, but this repo doesn't contain the mobile GUI code.
Other Tailscale repos of note:
- the Android app is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-android
- the Synology package is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-synology
- the QNAP package is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-qpkg
- the Chocolatey packaging is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-chocolatey
For background on which parts of Tailscale are open source and why, see https://tailscale.com/opensource/.
Using
We serve packages for a variety of distros and platforms at https://pkgs.tailscale.com.
Other clients
The macOS, iOS, and Windows clients use the code in this repository but additionally include small GUI wrappers. The GUI wrappers on non-open source platforms are themselves not open source.
Building
We always require the latest Go release, currently Go 1.21. (While we build releases with our Go fork, its use is not required.)
To include the embedded web client (accessed via the tailscale web
command),
first build the client assets using:
./tool/yarn --cwd client/web install
./tool/yarn --cwd client/web build
Build the tailscale
and tailscaled
binaries:
go install tailscale.com/cmd/tailscale{,d}
If you're packaging Tailscale for distribution, use build_dist.sh
instead, to burn commit IDs and version info into the binaries:
./build_dist.sh tailscale.com/cmd/tailscale
./build_dist.sh tailscale.com/cmd/tailscaled
If your distro has conventions that preclude the use of
build_dist.sh
, please do the equivalent of what it does in your
distro's way, so that bug reports contain useful version information.
Bugs
Please file any issues about this code or the hosted service on the issue tracker.
Contributing
PRs welcome! But please file bugs. Commit messages should reference bugs.
We require Developer Certificate of
Origin
Signed-off-by
lines in commits.
See git log
for our commit message style. It's basically the same as
Go's style.
