File storage abstraction through mechanisms like caching, transactions and JSON map aggregation.

To Use with Gaia

You can adapt as needed to your own implementation, but at the minimum you'll need a GaiaFileSource, to manage writing and reading to and from Gaia as a FileSource.

We do this by first redefining a subset of the Gaia UserSession:

// ./session-adapter.ts

export interface PutFileOptions {
    encrypt : boolean | string, 
    sign: boolean | string
}

export interface GetFileOptions {
    decrypt: boolean, 
    verify: boolean
}

export interface UserData {
    appPrivateKey: string, 
    username: string, 
    identityAddress: string,
    profile: any
}

export default interface SessionAdapter  {
    putFile(path: string, content: string, options?: PutFileOptions): Promise<string>
    deleteFile(path: string ) : Promise<void>   
    getFile(path: string, options?: GetFileOptions): Promise<string | null>
    getFileUrl(path: string) : Promise<string>
    loadUserData() : UserData
    encryptContent(content: string | Buffer, options?: {publicKey?: string}) : string
    decryptContent(content: string, options?: object): string | Buffer
}

We then define a GaiaFileSource:

// ./gaia-file-source.ts

import SessionAdapter from './session-adapter';
import { FileSource } from '@mylens/lens-file-source';

export default class GaiaFileSource implements FileSource {
    private sessionAdapter: SessionAdapter;
    constructor(sessionAdapter: SessionAdapter) {
        this.sessionAdapter = sessionAdapter;
    }
    async getFile(path: string, decrypt: boolean): Promise<string | null> { return await this.sessionAdapter.getFile(path, { decrypt: decrypt, verify: false }); }
    async putFile(path: string, content: string, encrypt: boolean): Promise<void> { await this.sessionAdapter.putFile(path, content, { encrypt: encrypt, sign: false }); }
    async deleteFile(path: string) : Promise<void> { await this.sessionAdapter.deleteFile(path); }
    async listFiles(options?: { pathFilter?: string, callback?: (name: string) => boolean }): Promise<Array<string>> { throw new Error("Not implemented"); }
    async getFileUrl(path: string): Promise<string | null> { return await this.sessionAdapter.getFileUrl(path); }
}

Once we have the file source, we can use it in whatever configuration we choose:

import { UserSession } from 'blockstack/lib/auth/userSession';
import GaiaFileSource from './gaia-file-source'

const userSession : SessionAdapter = new UserSession({ appConfig: new AppConfig(['store_write', 'publish_data'])}); 
const cachingFS = new CachedFileSource(new GaiaFileSource(userSession))
