Blind peers help keep hypercores available.
For the client side responsible for requesting cores be kept by Blind Peers, see blind-peering.
To run the server as a CLI, see blind-peer-cli.
npm install blind-peer
to run a blind-peer server, use blind-peer-cli.
To talk to a blind peer, use blind-peering
Here is an example:
import BlindPeering from 'blind-peering'
import Hyperswarm from 'hyperswarm'
import Corestore from 'corestore'
import Wakeup from 'protomux-wakeup'
const store = new Corestore(Pear.config.storage)
const swarm = new Hyperswarm()
const wakeup = new Wakeup()
const DEFAULT_BLIND_PEER_KEYS = ['es4n7ty45odd1udfqyi9xz58mrbheuhdnxgdufsn9gz6e5uhsqco'] // replace with your own key
const blind = new BlindPeering(swarm, store, { wakeup, mirrors: DEFAULT_BLIND_PEER_KEYS })
// Add your autobase
blind.addAutobaseBackground(autobase1)
// Add another core
blind.addCore(core1, autobase1.wakeupCapability.key)
