the manifest is persisted in ipfs, other nodes need it to open the database. if another node cant resolve it then the nodes arent able to communicate for whatever reason
if it can find it after a while thats pretty normal but can be sped up by connecting the nodes so the content is found faster
ipns wont help here i think
we need pubsub and ipfs/ipld which are a bit different
setting logger to log just log the cache stuff is not super helpful haha
just tells me its trying
if you want to try you can downgrade orbitdb to 0.27 but i dont think this will help
i think its a ipld issue? unable to open database: unable to fetch database manifest, timed out
it was trying to open something along the lines of
Post "http://127.0.0.1:5001/api/v0/block/get?arg=%2Fipld%2Fbafyreif[stuff]66sccjv4"
unless that is a different node than the one the manifest was created on
but you still cant fetch it from ipfs/ipld
can you still not load anything on the node that wrote the entries in the first place
im using orbitdb control center to create to try to reduce the amount of potentially wrong things
ill try using my apps creation settings and seeing what happens
still times out if i set a timeout
otherwise hangs?
its broken for the block api + ipfs http api
i set it to time out after 5 seconds so i wouldnt be sitting for hours haha
but trying to access a local store does not hang!
but still no writes
is orbit address supposed to be all lowercase, actually
i noticed when i created a db in control center it was mixed case
i dont know
plz send a code snippet of opening a store, writing, closing, opening and loading and then reading there are no entries
this should all be done from the same orbitdb/ipfs node
this is all i have right now, sorry about all the helper packages
but most the moving parts are in internal/app/run.go and internal/pkg/commands
i dont think i can help with that
Hi team! I'm implementing a Node app that is backed by an orbitDB keyvalue store. My config looks like this:
const ipfs = await IpfsHttpClient.create({
host: 'ipfs',
port: '5001',
protocol: 'http'
}); // We have an IPFS node running in the same docker
const orbitDB = await OrbitDB.createInstance(ipfs);
const options = {};
const metricsDB = await orbitDB.keyvalue('kvDb', options)
await metricsDB.load()
<do db stuff>After this I can set and get data but we can't seem to find the data on IPFS (it seems to me that the data is only coming from orbitdb local storage on node). Maybe there is something missing in the config? :pray: Thank you for your time in advance!
I can set and get data but we can't seem to find the data on IPFS
can you elaborate @zestified
So essentially i can something like
metricsDB.set(key, value) and metricsDB.get(key) and that will return the data. However, im not sure whether these key value pair data is persisted on my ipfs node or just in /orbitdb folder (which is created by default whenever i run the app). So how do i find these data on my ipfs?
the keyvalue store is persisted as entries which are stored in ipfs and reduced into the store state after each update
