HICN Plugin for Wireshark
===================

The `packethicn` plugin adds support to Wireshark to parse and dissect HICN
traffic.

`packethicn` can be compiled and installed in two ways:

1. Alongside HICN, from the HICN root dir (see [Build with
   HICN](#Build-with-HICN))

2. As a standalone component (see [Standalone build](#Standalone-build))

The second one is preferred if HICN is already installed in the system.

# Supported platforms
`packethicn` has been tested in

- Ubuntu 20.04
- macOS 12.3

Other platforms and architectures may work.

# Installation
## Build with HICN

### Dependencies

```bash
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wireshark-dev/stable

$ sudo apt install -y build-essential cmake wireshark wireshark-dev libgcrypt-dev libgnutls28-dev

```

### Build and install

From the root HICN dir add the `-DBUILD_WSPLUGIN` flag to cmake.

```bash
$ cd hicn
$ mkdir build; cd build
$ cmake -DBUILD_APPS=ON -DBUILD_WSPLUGIN=ON ..
$ make -j`nproc`
$ sudo make install
```

## Standalone build
### Linux (Ubuntu)

#### Install dependencies
```bash
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wireshark-dev/stable
$ curl -s https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/fdio/release/script.deb.sh | sudo bash
$ sudo apt install -y build-essential cmake libhicn-dev wireshark wireshark-dev libgcrypt-dev libgnutls28-dev

```
#### Compile and install HICN wireshark plugin
```bash
$ cd packethicn
$ mkdir build; cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make
$ sudo make install
```


### macOS
If installing wireshark via brew use the `./install_macos.sh` script as shown below:

```bash
$ brew tap icn-team/hicn-tap
$ brew install hicn
$ brew install wireshark
$ brew install cask wireshark
$ cd packethicn
$ ./install_macos.sh
```

Otherwise (if wireshark was compiled from sources) you can follow the setup for Linux:

```bash
$ cd packethicn
$ mkdir build; cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make
$ sudo make install
```
