Usage

Running on bare metal

Install the package from NPM:

$ npm install @rsksmart/rif-storage-pinning

When you initialize the Pinning service you need Offer ID. It is address of your account that you will use to create the Offer on the RIF Marketplace. You can either go to the RIF Marketplace directly and follow its guidance on how to set up new Offer, or if you need to set up the Pinning service prior that just use the account address instead here.

Example of usage:

$ rif-pinning init --offerId=0x123456789
$ rif-pinning daemon --provider='ws://localhost:8546' --ipfs='http://localhost:5001' --network=testnet --strategy=blockchain

This will:

  • initialize pinning service for given Offer
  • start the daemon of the pinning service
  • listens only for events for the Offer ID 0x123456789
  • use blockchain node for listening on events at ws://localhost:8546 that is connected to testnet network
  • thanks to --network testnet will use predefined deployed smart-contracts on testnet
  • connects to your locally running IPFS node at http://localhost:5001

Docker

Currently, the Docker image is not published anywhere, so you have to clone/download this repository first. Bellow we will describe only deployment using docker-compose, but it is possible to use only Docker image as well.

In the root of the repository create file .env-pinner where you can specify any environmental variable as specified bellow. Example is:

RIFS_OFFER='' # fill in the Offer ID here
RIFS_STRATEGY=blockchain
RIFS_NETWORK=testnet
RIFS_PROVIDER='' # fill in the address of RSKj node
RIFS_COMMS_BOOTSTRAP='' # fill in the address of libp2p bootstrap nodes

Then to start the pinning service you can simply run:

$ docker-compose up

Environmental variables

Pinning service supports following environmental variables:

  • RIFS_CONFIG (string) - Same like --config flag.
  • RIFS_MARKETPLACE_URL (string) - Marketplace URL
  • RIFS_CONTRACT_ADDR (string) - Specifies address of smart contract to listen the events from. Mainly for development as this is otherwise configured using --network flag.
  • RIFS_COMMS_TRANSPORT (cache/libp2p) - Defines the transport for comms
  • RIFS_COMMS_BOOTSTRAP_ENABLED (true/false) - Defines if bootstrap should be used. Same as libp2p config's bootstrap.enabled property.
  • RIFS_COMMS_BOOTSTRAP_LIST (array) - Defines an array of multiaddress that the Pinner's libp2p node will use to bootstrap its connectivity. Same as libp2p config's bootstrap.list property.
  • RIFS_DB (string) - Specify the name or path to the data base file.
  • RIFS_IPFS (string) - Same like --ipfs flag.
  • RIFS_NETWORK (testnet|mainnet) - Same like --network flag.
  • RIFS_OFFER (string) - Specifies Offer Id which the Pinning service should listen on. Same like --offerId flag.
  • RIFS_STRATEGY (blockchain|marketplace) - Same like --strategy flag.
  • RIFS_PROVIDER (string) - Same like --provider flag.
  • LOG_LEVEL (string) - Same like --log flag.
  • LOG_FILTER (string) - Same like --log-filter flag.
  • LOG_PATH (string) - Same like --log-path flag.
  • LOG_NO_COLORS (boolean) - if set the output won't be colorized

Contribute

There are some ways you can make this module better:

  • Consult our open issues and take on one of them
  • Help our tests reach 100% coverage!

Development

Requirements:

  • IPFSv5 and higher
  • Ganache
  • Node & NPM

Please on how to set up the development environment see Development guide

Tips

  • Using the npm run ipfs:consumer and npm run ipfs:provider you can interact with each IPFS node using the standard commands that IPFS supports.
  • You can interact with the CLI using npm run bin script from the local folder.
  • Use RIF Communication PubSub Node to listen on the broadcast events! Only configure the correct Room's name!
