dat-json

read & write dat.json files. Uses toiletdb under the hood.

npm travis standard

Install

npm install dat-json

Usage

var DatJSON = require('dat-json')

var datjson = DatJSON(archive)

datjson.create({title: 'a dat', description: 'exciting'}, function (err) {
  if (err) throw err
})

datjson.read(function (err, data) {
  console.log(data)
})

Write to a dat.json on the file system also:

var DatJSON = require('dat-json')

var datjson = DatJSON(archive, {file: path.join(dat.path, 'dat.json')})

datjson.create({title: 'a dat', description: 'exciting'}, function (err) {
  if (err) throw err
})

TODO: replace file option with hyperdrive indexing

API

var datjson = DatJSON(archive, [opts])

create a new datJson db

Options:

  • opts.file - dat.json file path, updates will be written to file system and archive

datjson.create([data], cb)

Create a new dat.json file in the archive with the default keys (url, title, description). Pass in any additional data to add on initial create.

datjson.write(key, val, cb) or datjson.write(data, cb)

Write a single key and value or an object, data, to the dat.json file. Use file option above to also update the file on the file system.
