crytter

distributed peer to peer social networking feeds

This module uses append-only which uses scuttlebutt so you can make posts to your feed offline or while only connected to some subset of your followers and when you come back your feeds will be integrated in an eventually consistent ordering across all nodes.

example

Start the server on port 5000:

$ crytter 5000

then start another server on 5001 to replicate with the first:

$ crytter 5001 http://localhost:5000/replicate

Then send POSTs to either server:

$ curl -X POST -d 'beep boop' localhost:5000/freddeth
$ curl -X POST -d 'doom' localhost:5000/maccery
$ curl -X POST -d 'oh hello' localhost:5000/maccery

and watch the feeds replicate in realtime:

# freddeth{F69D44EBFCED52F8CE326E98}               1353913432877
  beep boop
# maccery{F69D44EBFCED52F8CE326E98}                1353913449838
  doom
# maccery{C399719DCEE9CDB9A5B170F8}                1353913458680
  oh hello.
