# Project ImmortalWrt

ImmortalWrt is a fork of [OpenWrt](https://openwrt.org), with more packages ported, more device supported, better performance, and special optimizations for mainland China users.<br/>
Compared the official one, we allow to use hacks or non-upstreamable patches / modifications to achieve our purpose. Source from anywhere.

Default login address: http://192.168.1.1 or http://immortalwrt.lan, username: __root__, password: __password__.

## Development
To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.<br/>

  ### Requirements
  To build with this project, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS is preferred. And you need use the CPU based on AMD64 architecture, with at least 4GB RAM and 25 GB available disk space. Make sure the __Internet__ is accessible.

  The following tools are needed to compile ImmortalWrt, the package names vary between distributions.

  - Here is an example for Ubuntu users:<br/>
    - Method 1:
      <details>
        <summary>Setup dependencies via APT</summary>

        ```bash
        sudo apt update -y
        sudo apt full-upgrade -y
        sudo apt install -y ack antlr3 asciidoc autoconf automake autopoint binutils bison build-essential \
          bzip2 ccache cmake cpio curl device-tree-compiler ecj fastjar flex gawk gettext git git-core gperf haveged \
          help2man intltool lib32gcc1 libc6-dev-i386 libelf-dev libglib2.0-dev libgmp3-dev libltdl-dev libmpc-dev \
          libmpfr-dev libncurses5-dev libncurses5-dev libreadline-dev libssl-dev libtool libz-dev lrzsz mkisofs msmtp \
          nano ninja-build p7zip p7zip-full patch pkgconf python2.7 python3 python3-pip python3-ply python-docutils \
          qemu-utils re2c rsync scons squashfs-tools subversion swig texinfo uglifyjs upx-ucl unzip vim wget xmlto \
          xxd zlib1g-dev
        ```
      </details>
    - Method 2:
    ```bash
    curl -s https://build-scripts.project-openwrt.eu.org/init_build_environment.sh | sudo bash
    ```

  - You can also download and use prebuilt container directly:
  ```bash
  docker pull immortalwrt/opde:base
  # docker run --rm -it immortalwrt/opde:base
  ```

  Note:
  - For the for love of god please do __not__ use ROOT user to build your image.
  - Using CPUs based on other architectures should be fine to compile ImmortalWrt, but more hacks are needed - No warranty at all.
  - You must __not__ have spaces in PATH or in the work folders on the drive.
  - If you're using Windows Subsystem for Linux (or WSL), removing Windows folders from PATH are required, please see [Build system setup WSL](https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-developer/build-system/wsl) documentation.
  - Using macOS as the host build OS is __not__ recommended. No warranty at all. You can get tips from [Build system setup macOS](https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-developer/build-system/buildroot.exigence.macosx) documentation.
    - As you're building ImmortalWrt, patching or disabling UPX tools is also required.
  - For more details, please see [Build system setup](https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-developer/build-system/install-buildsystem) documentation.

  ### Quickstart
  - Method 1:
    1. Run `git clone -b <branch> --single-branch https://github.com/immortalwrt/immortalwrt` to clone the source code.
    2. Run `cd immortalwrt` to enter source directory.
    3. Run `./scripts/feeds update -a` to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default
    4. Run `./scripts/feeds install -a` to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/
    5. Run `make menuconfig` to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages.
    6. Run `make` to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.

  - Method 2:
    <details>
      <summary>Build image via OPDE</summary>

      - For Linux User:
      ```bash
      git clone -b <branch> --single-branch https://github.com/immortalwrt/immortalwrt && cd immortalwrt
      docker run --rm -it \
          -v $PWD:/openwrt \
        immortalwrt/opde:base zsh
      ./scripts/feeds update -a && ./scripts/feeds install -a
      ```

      - For Windows User:
        1. Create a volume 'immortalwrt' and clone ImmortalWrt source into volume.
        ```bash
        docker run --rm -it -v immortalwrt:/openwrt immortalwrt/opde:base git clone -b <branch> --single-branch https://github.com/immortalwrt/immortalwrt .
        ```
        2. Enter docker container and update feeds.
        ```bash
        docker run --rm -it -v immortalwrt:/openwrt immortalwrt/opde:base
        ./scripts/feeds update -a && ./scripts/feeds install -a
        ```
        - Tips: ImmortalWrt source code can not be cloned into NTFS filesystem (symbol link problem during compilation), but docker volume is fine.

      - Proxy Support:
      ```bash
      docker run --rm -it \
        -e   all_proxy=http://example.com:1081 \
        -e  http_proxy=http://example.com:1081 \
        -e https_proxy=http://example.com:1081 \
        -e   ALL_PROXY=http://example.com:1081 \
        -e  HTTP_PROXY=http://example.com:1081 \
        -e HTTPS_PROXY=http://example.com:1081 \
        -v $PWD:/openwrt \
        immortalwrt/opde:base zsh
      ```

      > Recommand `http` rather `socks5` protocol
      >
      > IP can not be `localhost` or `127.0.0.1`

      - For Windows User, binary is still in volume. It can be copied to outside via followed command:
      ```bash
      docker run --rm -v <D:\path\to\dir>:/dst -v openwrt:/openwrt -w /dst immortalwrt:base cp /openwrt/bin /dst
      ```
      > Make sure `D:\path]to\dir` has been appended in [File Sharing](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/#file-sharing).
