ethoFS SDK

Official NodeJS SDK for ethoFS

Overview

The ethoFS NodeJS SDK provides the quickest / easiest path for interacting with the Etho Protocol Network.

Installation

npm install --save @ethofs/sdk

Setup

To start, simply require the ethoFS SDK and set up an instance with your ethoFS Upload Address/Key (Etho Protocol Key). Register a new upload address using the addUser function or by registering at: Etho Protocol Uploads.

Initialization Without Authentication

const ethofsSDK = require('@ethofs/sdk');
const ethofs = ethofsSDK();

Initialization With Authentication

const ethofsSDK = require('@ethofs/sdk');
const ethofs = ethofsSDK('yourETHOPrivateKey');

Initialization With Custom RPC/Gateway Locations

Params
  • connections : A JSON object that contains the following keyvalues:
    • rpc (optional) : The Etho Protocol RPC Location
    • gateway (optional) : The IPFS API/Gateway Location
Example Code
const connections = {
    rpc: 'https://rpc.ethoprotocol.com',
    gateway: 'https://gateway.ethoprotocol.com'
};
const ethofsSDK = require('@ethofs/sdk');
const ethofs = ethofsSDK('yourETHOPrivateKey', connections);

Quickly test that you can connect to the API with the following call:

ethofs.testAuthentication().then((result) => {
    //handle successful authentication here
    console.log(result);
}).catch((err) => {
    //handle error here
    console.log(err);
});

Usage

Once you've set up your instance, using the ethoFS SDK is easy. Simply call your desired function and handle the results of the promise.

Authentication Not Required (ethoFS key not required on initialization)

Some endpoints allow you to pass additional options for ethoFS to take into account when adding content to IPFS.

The options object can consist of the following values:

  • uploadContractDuration (required) - The duration in ETHO blocks you would like your upload pinned for. A minimum of 100000 blocks is required.
Example ethofsOptions object
{
    hostingContractDuration: 100000
}

ethoFS Data

Some endpoints allow you to pass additional data to store with your IPFS upload.

The options object can consist of the following values:

  • name (optional) - The name of your upload.
  • keyvalues (optional) - Misc metadata to store with your upload.
Example ethofsData object
{
    name: 'UploadContractName',
    keyvalues: {
        customKey: 'customValue',
        customKey2: 'customValue2'
    }
}

ethoFS Data Filter

Some endpoints allow you to pass additional data filters to filter out existing contracts.

The options object can consist of the following values:

  • name (optional) - The name of your upload.
  • keyvalues (optional) - Misc metadata stored with your upload.
Example ethofsDataFilter object
{
    name: 'UploadContractNameFilter',
