oyster-streamable v2.2.1

oyster-streamable

A proof of concept, streamable implementation of the Oyster Protocol (not fully compatible) with a few significant changes:

• CryptoJS replaced with node-forge
• Encryption/decryption key is the SHA-256 hash of the handle, per-chunk IV (see #109)
• Communication with the nodes via IXI module to save bandwidth
• Pipelined processing:
  • File > Encryption > Upload
  • Download > Decryption > Blob

API Reference

{{>main}}

What's next?

Possible things to look into:

• Full compatibility
• Pluggable source streams for uploads and target streams for downloads, allowing:
• Node compatability
• Video streams via MediaSource
• Arbitrary size downloads via StreamSaver

Credits

This repo is based on the official oysterprotocol/webinterface and shares a fair amount of code with the project where it makes sense.

Big thanks to everyone working on Oyster!
