Interface ContentRouting

If network peers need to be periodically reminded that the caller can provide content corresponding to the passed CID, call this function to no longer remind them.

Find the providers of the passed CID.

Example

// Iterate over the providers found for the given cid
for await (const provider of contentRouting.findProviders(cid)) {
 console.log(provider.id, provider.multiaddrs)
}
Copy

Retrieves a value from the network corresponding to the passed key.

Example

// ...

const key = '/key'
const value = await contentRouting.get(key)
Copy

The implementation of this method should ensure that network peers know the caller can provide content that corresponds to the passed CID.

Example

// ...
await contentRouting.provide(cid)
Copy

Puts a value corresponding to the passed key in a way that can later be retrieved by another network peer using the get method.

Example

// ...
const key = '/key'
const value = uint8ArrayFromString('oh hello there')

await contentRouting.put(key, value)
Copy
