bitspace-mirroring-service

A Bitspace service with a RPC API for mirroring.

Installation

npm i bitspace-mirroring-service

Usage

This service is meant to run alongside a running Bitspace server.

With Bitspace running in a separate terminal:

❯ ./bin/index.js
Running bitspace-mirror/1.0.6 linux-x64 node-v14.15.0
Listening on /tmp/bitspace-mirroring.sock

Then you can import bitspace-mirroring-service/client inside a script, and it will auto-connect to the running server.

The mirror service provides an HRPC endpoint with methods for mirroring, unmirror, and listing mirroed Unichain-based data structures.

Currently it supports mirroring Bitdrives and individual Unichains. It doesn't do data-structure detection by looking at Unichain headers -- you gotta explicitly provide the type.

As of now, Bitdrive mirroring doesn't handle mounts. Maybe one day

API

await client.mirror(key, type)

Start mirroring a Unichain-based data structure.

This command will currently special-case the bitdrive type, mirroring both metadata and content feeds.

await client.unmirror(key, type)

Stop mirroring a Unichain-based data structure.

This command will currently special-case the bitdrive type, unmirroring both metadata and content feeds.

await client.status(key, type)

Check if a data structure is being mirrored;

Returns an object of the form:

{
  key, // Buffer
  type, // string
  mirroring // bool
}

await client.list()

List all data structures being mirrored.

Returns an Array of status objects with the same shape as the status return value.

await client.stop()

Shut down the server.
