decentral1se yep, still leaks meta by design
Dat
@dat_project_twitter
baffo32 it does not look to me like dat is designed to leak metadata. re: ip addresses, that's a different challenge, and can be layered on top

Why not make VPN or integrate one. Is it the decentralization problem or what?

decentral1se beamed to the netherlands
substack yay
substack i used that photo a lot to debug my ntsc encoder/decoder
substack because it has good variety of colors
decentral1se nice

fleeky so now there is hyp, hyperbeam and hyperphone
fleeky loving all these small utilities :)

Hi everyone
I am new at this sorry if this might not sound like a real issue... I am trying to learn about p2p technology
Is there plan to build a go based implementation for the dat project?
Dat
@dat_project_twitter
substack there is a rust version, but i don't think there is a go version

Thank you

booshnelli hi, interested in starting using hyperdrives :) as im win10, is it correct that any data i upload to a hyperdrive would be duplicated? & a system with FUSE capability wouldnt have that issue right?
Kilian Valkhof
@Kilian
Hey all! I'm looking for way for my app fromscratch.rocks (currently a flat-file text editor) to offer real time multi-device syncing while encrypting the text, ideally in such a way that I don't need to care about users or are responsible for any data. I think DAT can help me with that (via y.js) but I'm having trouble finding some practical "what can it do" stuff. I assume I can get this to work with two peers that are both online and get them to sync, but can DAT make the data available when the other peer is offline. Can I set up a "discovery" server that replicates data or whatever?
mmpleake
@mmpleake
@Kilian from what I've read so far it appears you'd just need to create a server that would add itself as a peer to each new share in order to provide that.
Kilian Valkhof
@Kilian
@mmpleake Thanks! I'll look into that. Fingers crossed there's a ready-made server for that :)

@samrose
Is it possible to add your own metadata onto dat files? Like if you want to create a set of tags or categories for files in dat?
mmpleake
@mmpleake
@samrose - I'm looking into similar use cases. It seems dat is built on top of hyperdrive which itself is built on hypercore - so to me it would be useful to visualize the capabilities at each layer to determine where/how to add metadata. To my understanding dat doesn't care about the files themselves so you'd need to have a different place to store metadata although it's not clear to me at the moment where would be best.
mmpleake
@mmpleake
Oddly, it's not very clear what ports are used, although the clients that use these protocols sometimes have them documented i suppose it could be just my inability to understand how they interrelate.
High level documentation (like OSI layers) of how dat protocol, hypercore, hyperdrive, and etc. interrelate would be extremely useful to implementation

@dat_project_twitter
baffo32 hey #dat . a while ago i developed https://github.com/xloem/openrecord , a tool which uses dat to provide for piping and sharing unending binary streams.
baffo32 i had trouble maintaining this tool because i wanted to use the dat structures in ways the api didn't provide yet, and it was hard to get features accepted, and the backend kept changing underneath me
baffo32 it seems like it would make sense to work closer with you guys moving forward. it would be nice if eventually it functioned again. it would be really good for handling e.g. server logs. is there a mailing list or anything to work with? is hyperdb still the backend to us?
samrose
@samrose
@mmpleake there are these 'tags' are they appropriate for adding categorical data about files? https://github.com/hypercore-protocol/hyperdrive#drivecreatetagname-version-cb
Dat
@dat_project_twitter
Copenhagen_Bram Can dat deltify binaries?
Dat
@dat_project_twitter
substack you will get the whole file again in the history if a single byte changes
substack an early early version used rabin fingerprints but that feature was dropped long ago for perf reasons
substack however you can layer on rabin fingerprinting yourself in your application

I am attempting to run Dat in Kubernetes. If anyone can point me to documentation or articles about how to do this it would be appreciated. In the meantime I am figuring it out bit by bit very slowly...

nettle the hypercore discord is now mirrored on cabal: cabal://ebdbcf8cd9c704844ca47b88fe7526a3c9f865be998486ca16ae3431e019d0cc

I don't see any git commits on the datproject/dat GitHub repo on any branch since May 2020. Is the Dat project struggling, or has the active development repo moved elsewhere?
Dat
@dat_project_twitter
nettle manning-ncsa: it's moved elsewhere, to https://github.com/hypercore-protocol
nettle 'dat' isn't being built anymore
T. Andrew Manning
@manning-ncsa
That is a relief :-) This explains a lot.
A quick perusal makes it look like hyp is a close analog to the dat CLI (https://github.com/hypercore-protocol/cli, https://hypercore-protocol.org/guides/hyp/sharing-folders/)
