Space Client

Overview

Space Client it's a grpc-web wrapper that allows you to connect with the space daemon and interact with it.

Initialaze client

Before initialize the client you need to have the space-daemon up and running. You can find the daemon installation docs here

Please have in mind that daemon only supports local connections for now, that means that you just can connect through your localhost. You can't connect through a dns or try to connect to a daemon running on a different machine.

  import { SpaceClient } from '@fleekhq/space-client';

  // default port exposed by the daemon for client connection is 9998
  const client = new SpaceClient({
    url: `http://0.0.0.0:9998`,
  });

  ...

If you are running the client on the server-side, you need to declare XMLHttpRequest module as global. (this is because client is based on grpc-web, which is supposed to be used on client-side).

install XMLHttpRequest

  yarn add xmlhttprequest

Or using npm

  npm install xmlhttprequest

then to initialize the client:

  global.XMLHttpRequest = require("xmlhttprequest").XMLHttpRequest;

  const { SpaceClient } = require('@fleekhq/space-client');

  // default port exposed by the daemon for client connection is 9998
  const client = new SpaceClient({
    url: `http://0.0.0.0:9998`,
  });

  ...

Generate Protobuf Messages and Client Service Stub

Step 1: Download the binary tools required to generate protobuf messages and client services:

if you already have the tools, you can skip this step

In order to generate the Protobuf Messages and Client Service Stub you need:

• protoc binary
• protoc-gen-grpc-web plugin

Install protoc

Go to the latest release page of protobuf and download the binary for your OS: https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/releases

In this example we are going to use OSX, so the file that we need is protoc-3.13.0-osx-x86_64.zip (https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/releases/download/v3.13.0/protoc-3.13.0-osx-x86_64.zip)

Unzip the file, rename the uncompressed file to protoc and move it to the bin directory on your OS (make sure to change the permissions of the file):

$ sudo mv ~/Downloads/protoc /usr/local/bin/
$ sudo chmod 777 /usr/local/bin/protoc

Install protoc-gen-grpc-web

Go to the latest release page of grpc-web and download the binary for your OS: https://github.com/grpc/grpc-web/releases

In this example we are going to use OSX, so the file that we need is protoc-gen-grpc-web-1.2.1-darwin-x86_64 (https://github.com/grpc/grpc-web/releases/download/1.2.1/protoc-gen-grpc-web-1.2.1-darwin-x86_64)

Rename the file to protoc-gen-grpc-web and move it to the bin directory on your OS (make sure to change the permissions of the file):

$ sudo mv ~/Downloads/protoc-gen-grpc-web /usr/local/bin/
$ sudo chmod 777 /usr/local/bin/protoc-gen-grpc-web

Step 2: Prepare the space.proto file

Download the latest version of the space.proto from master branch: https://github.com/FleekHQ/space-daemon/blob/master/grpc/proto/space.proto

If you need to update the space.proto from the develop branch, you can go to: https://github.com/FleekHQ/space-daemon/blob/develop/grpc/proto/space.proto

Download the space.proto into /src/definitions/space.proto on this project

Then, using a text editor that supports regex (like vscode), open the space.proto and find by the following regex:

(import "google/api/annotations.proto";|(option \(google.api.http\) = \{(\n){0,1}(.*: .*|\n)*.*\};))

remove all the coincidences, and save the file:

Step 3: Generate Protobuf Messages and Client Service Stub

Open a terminal and move into the definitions folder:

cd src/definitions

then execute the following command:

protoc -I=. space.proto \
  --js_out=import_style=commonjs:. \
  --grpc-web_out=import_style=typescript,mode=grpcwebtext:.

the command is going to generate 3 files: space_pb.d.ts, space_pb.js and SpaceServiceClientPb.ts

Step 4: Test the build

Once you successfully generated the protobuf messages and the client service stub, you have to test that the build is passing with this new version of the space.proto:

yarn build

If the build fails, means that you have to update src/client.ts file with the latest versions of the types generated.

API

class SpaceClient(opts)

Use this class to create space client instances able to interact with space-daemon

Options:

• opts.url: (string, required) space dameon url + port (https://0.0.0.0:9998)
• opts.defaultBucket?: (string, optional) change the default bucket. This value is used when you don't pass the bucket param on some of the methods below. if you don't pass this property, personal bucket is going to be used as default value (personal bucket is created by default when you run space-daemon for the first time).
• opts.options?: (object, optional) grpc-web client options.
• opts.credentials?: (object, optional) grpc-web client credentials.

import { SpaceClient } from '@fleekhq/space-client';
