Use a sticky & memorable name to seed a p2p swarm and generate feeds, managed by multifeed for the web 🕸️.
Really just an opinionated & useful combination of abstractions from a few ~floating hypercore based modules (e.g. hypercore, hyperswarm, multifeed, crypto, etc.) for any p2p farmer, punk, or api(ar)ists.
install:
yarn add swarm-feeder
// duh
const SwarmFeeder = require('swarm-feeder')
// if for the web, pass in `wsProxy`
const feeder = SwarmFeeder({encoding: 'utf-8'})
// seed or join a name for the swarm, outputs hash (can join from hash too)
await feeder.swarm("bumble-colony")
// => 'bee80ff3a4ee5e727dc44197cb9d25bf8f19d50b0f3ad2984cfe5b7d14e75de7'
// => 2 peers connected, things are happenin'
// push to the default local feed, replicates to all remote
await feeder.local.push("bzz")
// keep a watch out for items that are added
await feeder.watch()
// => watching for anything new ...
// => got one! { 'bzz' }
// pull from remote feed, based on id or name
await feeder.remote.pull(0, console.log)
// => { 0: ['howdy', 'ho'] }If a name is not given, seed 🌱 the location for the swarm by a random tree name for others to join, courtesy of per.
await feeder.seed()
// => 'flowering-almira-norway-maple'
// => 'b2b26976c9ae329e2b8ce072d28hhell05d9e20a7f24a6af917f0ed3ad3f8b5a5'
// => 0 peers connected, :(- minimal impl
- naming for feeds (deal with collision)
