@stacks/storage

Store and fetch files with Gaia, the decentralized storage system.

Installation

npm install @stacks/storage

Usage

Initiating a storage client

import { UserSession } from '@stacks/auth';
import { Storage } from '@stacks/storage';

const appConfig = new AppConfig();
const userSession = new UserSession({ appConfig });
const storage = new Storage({ userSession });

Note that you can also use an existing userSession object created during the authentication process.

Put file

const myData = JSON.stringify({
  hello: "world",
  num: 1
});

storage.putFile('my_data.json', myData));

Store data at a different path

storage.putFile('path/my_data.json', myData));

Put file with options

const putFileOptions = {
  // override the default content type
  contentType: 'application/json', 
  // override encrypting data by default
  // you can also set encrypt to a private key to specify a custom encryption key
  encrypt: false, 
  // ignore automatic conflict prevention using etags
  dangerouslyIgnoreEtag: true
}

storage.putFile('my_data.json', myData, putFileOptions));

Get file

storage.getFile('my_data.json').then((fileContent) => {
  console.log(fileContent);
});

Get file with options

const getFileOptions = {
  decrypt: false,
  // by default files stored are signed and can be verified for authenticity
  verify: false
}

storage.getFile('my_data.json', getFileOptions).then((fileContent) => {
  console.log(fileContent);
});

Delete file

storage.deleteFile('my_data.json');

Delete the file and the corresponding signature file if signed

storage.deleteFile('my_data.json', { wasSigned: true });

List file

List all files in the user's Gaia hub

storage.listFiles((filename) => {
  if (filename === 'my_data.json') {
    return storage.getFile(filename).then((fileContent) => {
      console.log(fileContent);
      // return false to stop iterating through files
      return false;
    })
  } else {
    // return true to continue iterating
    return true;
  }
});
