Kerala
A library for creating profitable decentralized applications
Kerala offers a an easy-to-use wrapper to store and retrieve links on the Interplanetary File System. (IPFS) I created this library to aid me in creating a decentralized twitter. It can be used for any sort of decentralized application that stores user tweets/posts/microblogs. It utilizes the CoinPrism API to make sending and receiving dapp asset transactions easy.
Kerala lets you...
Add data to IPFS.
Retrieve data from IPFS.
Resolve a peerID to get their data address
Generate your own dapp asset address
Pay anyone with dapp assets
TODO
-Implement IPFS Keystore for encrypting data and sharing it with trusted nodes.
-Namecoin registration for PeerIDs
#All pull requests, issue creation, and advice are welcome.
Install
$ go get -u github.com/siraj/go-kerala/keralaKerala depends on IPFS and CoinPrism
Usage
//Start a node
node, err := kerala.StartNode()
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
//Add your text to IPFS (Creates MerkleDAG)
var userInput = r.Form["sometext"]
Key, err := kerala.AddString(node, userInput[0])
//Resolve PeerID to get MerkleDAG
pointsTo, err := kerala.GetDAG(node, node.Identity.Pretty())
//Get all your text from IPFS (Retrieves MerkleDAG)
tweetArray, err := kerala.GetStrings(node, pointsTo.B58String())
//Pay another node (Arguments are - fee, your address, their address, amount, asset address, private keys)
hash := kerala.Pay("1000","1HihKUXo6UEjJzm4DZ9oQFPu2uVc9YK9Wh", "akSjSW57xhGp86K6JFXXroACfRCw7SPv637", "10", "AHthB6AQHaSS9VffkfMqTKTxVV43Dgst36", "L1jftH241t2rhQSTrru9Vd2QumX4VuGsPhVfSPvibc4TYU4aGdaa" )
//Generate an asset address
address := kerala.GenerateAddress()
//Get your current balance
balance := kerala.GetBalance("1HihKUXo6UEjJzm4DZ9oQFPu2uVc9YK9Wh")
