# pzp-db The message database for PZP. ## Installation ``` npm install pzp-db ``` ## Usage It's a secret-stack plugin much like ssb-db2. Other than that, you can also use the feed format `const FeedV1 = require('pzp-db/feed-v1')`. You can use it like ```js const p = require('node:util').promisify const keypair = Keypair.generate('ed25519', 'alice') const DIR = path.join(os.tmpdir(), 'pzp-db-temp') const pzp = require('secret-stack/bare')() .use(require('secret-stack/plugins/net')) .use(require('secret-handshake-ext/secret-stack')) .use(require('pzp-db')) .use(require('ssb-box')) .call(null, { shse: { caps: require('pzp-caps') }, global: { keypair, path: DIR } }) await pzp.db.loaded() const account = await p(pzp.db.account.create)({ keypair, subdomain: 'person', }) const record = await p(pzp.db.feed.publish)({ account, domain: 'post', data: { text: 'I am 1st post' }, }) console.log("account:", account, "record:", JSON.stringify(record, null, 2)) //account: 8VLSqiWCX26w1173212RBRvY8N7MEbY3ar8fv22cGx6b record: { // "id": "H8dQH6LzeW2He7oRVXKP6u6WbC1GQ8EABh3PgS587L3w", // "msg": { // "data": { // "text": "I am 1st post" // }, // "metadata": { // "dataHash": "39FJFLNXj7L83nFJbrrbADdKCeFe2vP2ikuNZXVKYSXP", // "dataSize": 24, // "account": "8VLSqiWCX26w1173212RBRvY8N7MEbY3ar8fv22cGx6b", // "accountTips": [ // "8VLSqiWCX26w1173212RBRvY8N7MEbY3ar8fv22cGx6b" // ], // "tangles": { // "9HdQRpQNHgxiuxRy8eSEvEDG3nAL4EAYYkYHiHbU7Xqo": { // "depth": 1, // "prev": [ // "9HdQRpQNHgxiuxRy8eSEvEDG3nAL4EAYYkYHiHbU7Xqo" // ] // } // }, // "domain": "post", // "v": 4 // }, // "sigkey": "4mjQ5aJu378cEu6TksRG3uXAiKFiwGjYQtWAjfVjDAJW", // "sig": "WNY4WZiT3SLQKFn4J6ESLn8WqPfLRh5fPdTiZTkvDNf5u79wFmXv367UV93XjyzACi6C3fgwZkstq5JczCk3YPH" // }, // "received": 1712503926457 //} ``` ## API NOTE: All functions that take a callback (cb) return a promise instead if you omit the callback. ### `pzp.db.installEncryptionFormat(encryptionFormat)` If `encryptionFormat` conforms to the [ssb-encryption-format](https://github.com/ssbc/ssb-encryption-format) spec, then this method will install the `encryptionFormat` in this database instance, meaning that you can now encrypt and decrypt messages using that encryption format. ### `pzp.db.loaded(cb) Calls back when the database is ready to be used. ### `pzp.db.add(msg: Msg, tangleID: MsgId | null, cb: CB) Adds a message to the database. Usually performed automatically when you do other things like publishing messages or syncing from other peers. ### `pzp.db.account.find({ keypair?: KeypairPublicSlice, subdomain: string}, cb: CB)` Find the account that contains this `keypair` (or the implicit `config.global.keypair`) under the given `subdomain` (will be converted to an actual msg domain). ### `pzp.db.account.create({ keypair?: Keypair, subdomain: string }, cb: CB)` Create an account (root msg) for the given `keypair` (or the implicit `config.global.keypair`) under the given `subdomain` (will be converted to an actual msg domain). ### `pzp.db.account.findOrCreate({ keypair?: Keypair, subdomain: string }, cb: CB)` Find or create an account (root msg) for the given `keypair` (or the implicit `config.global.keypair`) under the given `domain` (will be converted to an actual msg domain). ### `pzp.db.account.add({ account: string, keypair: Keypair | KeypairPublicSlice, powers?: Array, consent?: string }, cb: CB)` Add the given `keypair` to the given `account`, authorized by the given `consent` (or implicitly created on the fly if the `keypair` contains the private key) with the specified `powers` (defaulting to no powers). ### `pzp.db.account.del({ account: string, keypair: KeypairPublicSlice }, cb: CB)` Remove the given `keypair` from the given `account`. ### `pzp.db.account.consent({ keypair?: KeypairPrivateSlice, account: string }) => string` Create a consent signature for the given `keypair` (or the implicit `config.global.keypair`) to be added to the given `account`. ### `pzp.db.account.has({ keypair?: KeypairPublicSlice, account: string }, cb: CB) Does this `account` have this `keypair` (or the implicit `config.global.keypair`)? feed: { ### `pzp.db.feed.publish({ keypair?: Keypair, encryptionFormat?: string, data: object, domain: string, account: string, tangles?: Array }, cb: CB)` Publishes a message to the feed of the given `domain`. ### `pzp.db.feed.getID(accountId: string, domain: string) => string` Gets the moot ID (the ID of an account's domain's root message) for a given account and domain. That message is deterministic so you can calculate its ID even if you e.g. haven't been given it directly. ### `pzp.db.feed.findMoot(accountId: string, domain: string, cb: CB)` Gets the moot for the specified account and domain from the database. A moot is the root message for an account's domain. ### `pzp.db.getRecord(msgID: MsgID, cb: CB)` Gets a message's record using its message ID, if you have it in your database. The record has the shape `{ id: string, msg: Msg, received: number }`. ### `pzp.db.get(msgID: MsgID, cb: CB)` Gets a message using its message ID, if you have it in your database. ### `pzp.db.del(msgID: MsgID, cb: CB)` Deletes a specific message from your database. ### `pzp.db.erase(msgID: MsgID, cb: CB) Erases a specific message in your database. Erasing, as opposed to deleting, only removes a message's `data`. Metadata is kept and the message integrity can still be verified. ### `pzp.db.ghosts.add({ tangleID: MsgID, msgID: MsgID, span: number }, cb: CB)` Adds a [ghost][ghost] to the database. ### `pzp.db.ghosts.get(tangleID: MsgID) => Array` Gets a [ghost][ghost] from the database. ### `pzp.db.ghosts.getMinDepth(tangleID: MsgID) => number` Gets the depth of the ghost in the tangle with the lowest depth. ### `pzp.db.onRecordAdded` An [obz][obz] observable that triggers when a record is added to the database. ### `pzp.db.onRecordDeletedOrErased` An [obz][obz] observable that triggers when a record is either deleted or erased. Erasing means that only the `data` field of the message has been cleared. ### `pzp.db.getTangle(tangleID: MsgID, cb: CB)` Tries to get a `DBTangle` object representing an entire tangle in the database. ### `pzp.db.msgs() => AsyncGenerator` Returns an async generator letting you iterate over all messages in the database. ### `pzp.db.records() => AsyncGenerator` Returns an async generator letting you iterate over all records in the database. The records have the shape `{ id: string, msg: Msg, received: number }` if they exist but they might also be deleted. ### `pzp.db.log.stats(cb: CB<{ totalBytes: number; deletedBytes: number }>)` Returns some size stats on the log file, where messages are stored. ### `pzp.db.log.compact(cb: CB)` Makes the log file (the message store) take up less space by compacting it into the space freed by messages that have been deleted. ## License Copyright © 2023-2024 Andre 'Staltz' Medeiros and contributors.
