Hyperdrive Http

Handle Hyperdrive HTTP Requests

Expects you to:

• Bring your own http server
• Manage your own hyperdrive archives
• Connect to the swarm before callback

Usage

Initiate with an archive lookup function: var onrequest = hyperdriveHttp(getArchive)

or pass a single archive: var onrequest = hyperdriveHttp(archive)

var hyperdriveHttp = require('hyperdrive-http')

var getArchive = function (datInfo, cb) {
  // find the archive to serve
  var archive = cache.get(datInfo.discoveryKey)
  if (!archive) {
    archive = drive.createArchive(datInfo.key)
    // connect to swarm, if necessary
    sw.join(archive.discoveryKey)
  }
  cb(null, archive) // callback with your found archive
}

var onrequest = hyperdriveHttp(getArchive)
var server = http.createServer()
server.listen(8000)
server.on('request', onrequest)

Pass an archive lookup function for the first argument of hyperdriveHttp. The function is called with datInfo and a callback.

datInfo = {
  key: archive.key,
  discoveryKey: archive.discoveryKey,
  filename: someFile.txt,
}
