ahhhh

i want to make so many things with the cool distributed tech that's starting to surface

thats how i feel

hardest thing about building these tools is that you constantly think about what you can build on top

so i can basically just replace .get with .put if i want to add something to the hypercore log?

yea

exactly that

get always return an array of values

since there can be more than one (if there was a netsplit)

so i can add to your word archive then right?

no

you have to own one of the feeds in the constructor

(i have the secret key for the one used in my gist)

so, line 12?

yea

i'm working on a better api for that btw

yeah just trying to find my way around

so if i wanted multiple people to be able to add to the feed, i'd just have the secret key available or what?

so each peer you want to have writing to the db needs to own a feed

and then you pass in all the hypercores in the constuctor

hm, how would i coordinate getting all of the peer feeds?

any new hypercore you create you own

yea that part is up to you until i push this new api

ahh ok

so for now get it working with some hardcoded ones

and it'll get fixed upstream inbetween

this is part of the alpha experience :D

basically i want to make a really really really small mud

yoshuawuyts: was there a sibyl demo at cambridge? do you know if it went well?

mud?

multiuser dungeon, like an mmo but extremely shitty and ascii

You arrive in a node_modules folder. It's infinitely recursive. You are using an unknown npm version with an unknown .npmrc. Your task is to install the users dependencies. What do you do?

rm -rf

i actually own mud on npm

ahah

but yeah i figured that would be a fun and interesting usecase to explore

mafintosh: lol

mafintosh: can you pull master and check `time dat --help` again

your computer was ~1s slower than mine initially!

jhand: wowowow 0.1s

feels so much better

mafintosh: lol sweet

ya there are a few more things I can do too

thanks for the tip

its the difference between waiting for something and it being instant

jhand: also, did we have a command to get the key out btw?

mafintosh: dat status will show it

ah status

mafintosh: or `dat sync -k` or whatever command

will show it and run that cmd

ogd: o/

ogd: yeah there was one last week - believe it did!

woot

mafintosh: so in hyperdb, if i have your feed and add mine in the constructor, the resulting db will be composed of both our feeds right?

and i can only write to mine (and others i might own i guess)

mafintosh: hmm, i ran dat create so that i would get a dat id i own so that i could write to hyperdb

i get Error: Another hypercore is stored here

so i'm misunderstanding something

not sure how to create a feed i own otherwise

cblgh: look if there's already a hidden .dat folder

mafintosh: btw, the -http problem is still present, I re-opened the github issue (a few days ago)

seems to be a heisenbug

[1~[1~[1~[1~[4~tshit i fucked up my screen session to irc again

we're considering adding 'user profiles' to the library in beaker https://github.com/beakerbrowser/beaker/wiki/Da...

i've only tweaked hyperdictionary.js very slightly https://gist.github.com/cblgh/b19a160c810326dbc...

so in the same folder as above, i created a folder test-db and ran dat create inside it

i added a put for a nonense word, but when i get it, it doesn't seem as if it has been written to my feed

not sure what i'm missing

no error though, it just runs and exits as if i had only the original feed
