Package tailcfg defines the types and constants used by the Tailscale protocol, but since everything is all in one package, it’s difficult to sift through the docs: https://pkg.go.dev/tailscale.com/tailcfg We define and enumerate capabilities as string constants for tailcfg.NodeCapability and tailcfg.PeerCapability. This PR extracts them into their own packages: - tailcfg.CapabilityFileSharing becomes nodecap.FileSharing - tailcfg.NodeAttrOnlyTCP443 becomes nodecap.OnlyTCP443 - tailcfg.PeerCapabilityTaildrive becomes peercap.Taildrive We originally intended for CapabilityFoo to grant an entitlement or permission for Foo, and for NodeAttrBar to configure Bar in the nodeAttrs section of the policy file. However, there was no technical enforcement of this convention, so new capabilities have used the NodeAttr prefix regardless of meaning. Therefore, this PR unifies tailcfg.CapabilityFoo and tailcfg.NodeAttrBar into a single package as nodecap.Foo and nodecap.Bar. Ran `go fix -inline ./...` and committed the changes that replaced uses of the tailcfg aliases with the authoritative ones.

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 1.26. (While we build releases with our Go fork, its use is not required.)
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.
