Its README emphasizes compatibility with the official Python magic-wormhole CLI and the shared use of a short wormhole code to connect endpoints. ### Projektgeschichte Magic Wormhole was publicized to the Python community at PyCon 2016 by Brian Warner as a way to move files like scp but without prearranged hostnames or SSH keys. The protocol uses short human-transmitted codes and PAKE/SPAKE2 to establish a strong shared key before encrypted transfer. wormhole-william appeared later as an alternate implementation in Go: the GitHub repository was created on 2019-08-28, and the earliest GitHub release returned by the releases API is v1.0.1 on 2019-12-29. Its role is not to redefine the protocol, but to make Magic Wormhole available as a Go library and native-feeling command-line program. ### Adoptionsgeschichte The project README lists third-party users including rymdport, riftshare, termshark, tmux-wormhole, and wormhole-william-mobile. That list shows the Go implementation being used as both an end-user CLI and a library layer for graphical, terminal, mobile, and integration-oriented transfer tools. By the 2025-03-30 v1.0.8 release, GitHub metadata showed more than one thousand stars, which is notable for a small protocol-compatible file-transfer implementation. ### Wie es verwendet wird The common workflow mirrors Magic Wormhole: one side runs a send command for text, a file, or a directory, receives or chooses a short code, and the other side enters the same code to receive. The code bootstraps encrypted communication; bulk transfer can go peer-to-peer or through Magic Wormhole relay infrastructure depending on network conditions. For package users, wormhole-william is attractive when a Go binary is easier to deploy than a Python environment, or when another Go program wants Magic Wormhole behavior through a library rather than shelling out to the reference client. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren wormhole-william is significant because it demonstrates protocol portability. Magic Wormhole became useful enough that package ecosystems wanted more than the original Python implementation: a compact Go client, a reusable Go API, and downstream apps built on the same code. ### Zeitleiste - 2016: Brian Warner presents Magic Wormhole at PyCon as simple secure file transfer. - 2019-08-28: wormhole-william GitHub repository is created. - 2019-12-29: Earliest listed GitHub release, v1.0.1, is published. - 2025-03-30: v1.0.8 is published. ### Related projects - magic-wormhole is the original Python implementation and CLI. - rymdport and wormhole-william-mobile are downstream applications named by wormhole-william as third-party users. ### Quellen - - - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise broad file, network, media, or database tool signal. - **Geiger-Risiko:** blue / mittel - broad file, network, media, or database tool signal ## Andere Paketmanager-Einträge - Debian apt - golang-github-psanford-wormhole-william-dev - 1.0.7-1: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: golang-github-psanford-wormhole-william-dev from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | Magic wormhole CLI and API in Go (library) | https://github.com/psanford/wormhole-william - Debian apt - wormhole-william - 1.0.7-1+b6: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: wormhole-william from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | Magic wormhole CLI and API in Go (program) | https://github.com/psanford/wormhole-william - Nix - wormhole-william: normalized package name match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/wo/wormhole-william/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - Ubuntu apt - golang-github-psanford-wormhole-william-dev - 1.0.6-3build1: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: golang-github-psanford-wormhole-william-dev from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | Magic wormhole CLI and API in Go (library) | https://github.com/psanford/wormhole-william - Ubuntu apt - wormhole-william - 1.0.6-3build1: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: wormhole-william from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | Magic wormhole CLI and API in Go (program) | https://github.com/psanford/wormhole-william - apk - wormhole-william - 1.0.8-r11: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: wormhole-william from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | Go implementation of Magic Wormhole | https://github.com/psanford/wormhole-william - MacPorts - wormhole-william: normalized package name match | MacPorts ports tree: net/wormhole-william/Portfile from https://api.github.com/repos/macports/macports-ports/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - Scoop - main/wormhole-william: normalized package name match | Scoop official bucket manifest trees: bucket/wormhole-william.json from https://api.github.com/repos/ScoopInstaller/Main/git/trees/master?recursive=1 ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
