Introduction

This is a backend service for uploading files to IPFS which communicate with pinners using libp2p. It is build using FeathersJS

API

Upload

This api allow you to upload file

POST: /upload

MultiPartFormData: {
  files: File1,
  files: File2,
  account: string,
  offerId: string,
  peerId: string,
  contractAddress: string
}

{
  message: 'File uploaded',
  fileHash: 'Qmasv234cksldmfFileHash'
}

Get File Size

This api allow you to get size of the file by file hash

GET: /fileSize?hash=<fileHash>

{
  fileHash: 'Qmasv234cksldmfFileHash',
  fileSizeBytes: 10231
}

Get File Size Limit

This endpoint exposes the max supported size in bytes

GET: /fileSizeLimit

{
  fileSizeLimit: 1073741824
}

Configuration

Required reading: node-config docs

There are several ways how to configure this application:

1. Using JSON file
2. Using Environmental variables
3. Using CLI parameters

To run this upload service there is minimum configuration needed, which is supported with all the configuration ways mentioned above:

• Database connection
• Storage provider connection (IPFS)
• Libp2p bootstrap nodes list

For general overview of complete configuration options see Config interface that describe configuration object's properties. If you need advanced configuration you can build your own JSON configuration file and load that either using the --config CLI parameter or using environment variable RIFMUS_CONFIG.

Environment variables overview

• RIFMUS_PORT (number): port on which the server should listen to
• RIFMUS_DB (string): database connection URI
• RIFMUS_NETWORK_ID (number): network id
• RIFMUS_IPFS_URL (string): IPFS Node url
• RIFMUS_COMMS_LISTEN (array) - Defines an array of multiaddress that the Upload service libp2p node will listen on. Same as libp2p config's address.listen property.
• RIFMUS_COMMS_BOOTSTRAP_ENABLED (true/false) - Defines if bootstrap should be used. Same as libp2p config's bootstrap.enabled property.
• RIFMUS_COMMS_BOOTSTRAP_LIST (array) - Defines an array of multiaddress that the Upload service libp2p node will use to bootstrap its connectivity. Same as libp2p config's bootstrap.list property.
• CORS settings (see more on expressjs documentation):
  • RIFMUS_CORS_ORIGIN (boolean | string | regexp): Configures the Access-Control-Allow-Origin CORS header
  • RIFMUS_CORS_METHODS (string) Configures the Access-Control-Allow-Methods CORS header
• Logging related (see bellow):
  • LOG_LEVEL (string)
  • LOG_FILTER (string)
  • LOG_PATH (string)
  • LOG_NO_COLORS (boolean) - if set the output won't be colorized
