Barebones server to use for agent-centric app prototyping that after maturation can be progressively adapted to use more advanced protocols such as Holochain, Secure Scuttlebutt, IPFS, etc.

• Agent-Centric: This means that each participant has their own Document, that holds all their data. This also means that if you wish to participate as a group with other people, you would also have your own group-Document. Identify with a simple secret passphrase.
• Public: This means that all the data stored is open to be seen by anyone; there are no secret information silos. Encrypt it yourself if you want. It also means that it's a public utility, like a park or a beach; maintained by individuals, enjoyed by everyone.
• Mutable: This means that the data stored is mutable and we don't maintain a copy. Treat the data as ephemeral. Back it up yourself if you want.
• : All the resources are available for everyone to use, so we don't need to rely on Firebase or some other SASS service, we can all use a single server. This encurages to collaborate with other pilot projects.

• ✔ Be online and accessible from any website
• ✔ Optional authentication with a passphrase
• ✔ Store agents data
• ✔ Serve all agents data
• Serve agents data based on query
• Validate data storage according to agreements
• Store blobs on IPFS and serve them or use a pinning service
• Enforce limit on agent records size
• ✔ Playground panel to explore the all the service functionalities

That is running on a Digital Ocean US$ 5 / month droplet.

All the deployment and everything is all handmade.

The server does not have any security policies to prevent abuse yet; so it's likely you could easily break it; if you figure out how to break it, create an issue.

So far there is no database, every participant data is stored on the filesystem as an independent file.

The app build for Deno. Follow instructions there to have it installed.

We use Denon for running scripts. Follow instructions there to install it.

denon dev

Returns the whole dataset as JSON

Returns whole agent data as JSON

Saves whole agent data from JSON-encoded body. Can be used Authorization

Deletes agent Can be used with Authorization

Authorization is not obligatory; by default anyone can save any agent data unless that agent has set a passphrase; which is stored on the server as a SHA3-512 hashed string.

Use header Authorization: Basic <B64_encoded_passphrase> when submitting agent data and it will save the passphrase. Next time that agent data is submitted, the same authorization passphrase must be used or the request will be rejected.

This is intended for prototyping and is untested code without any security guarantees.
