3e8d58767f CLI: improve docs w.r.t. aliases, add examples to 'tahoe put' and 'tahoe get' help output. Addresses part of #431 2008-06-02 17:54:56 -07:00

8e92dfcb50 overhaul CLI: not quite complete but it works a lot better than it used to. The new scheme uses 'tahoe add-alias' and rsync/scp-style 'alias:foo/bar.txt' arguments 2008-05-19 19:28:50 -07:00

151f69d9b5 webapi.txt: overhaul documentation. API changes are as follows: 
* download/upload localdir=/localfile= has been removed. This sort of ambient
   authority was unsafe to expose over the web (CSRF), and at some point
   soon we'll have 'cp -r' in the CLI to replace it.
 * GET save=filename -> GET filename=filename&save=true
 * GET t=download removed
 * side-effect causing operations now use POST where appropriate, not PUT
 * to create multiple directories, either use
   * POST /uri/DIRCAP/parent?t=mkdir&name=child  (more form/browser oriented)
   * POST /uri/DIRCAP/parent/child?t=mkdir (more machine oriented)
   The t=mkdir-p form is still accepted, but not preferred (since it leaks
   the child name queryarg into the logs)
 * use PUT /uri/MUTABLEFILECAP or PUT /uri/DIRCAP/child (on a mutable file) to
   replace its contents, or POST /same?t=upload from forms
 * response bodies and codes are better specified than before

7b2ca46b35 docs: use "127.0.0.1" instead of "localhost" 
Unfortunately there are occasionally configurations in the real world where "localhost" does not resolve to 127.0.0.1, and if a user has such a configuration then using 'localhost' could lead to an authority leak.

7caec120b3 docs: webapi: Add concise shorthand for options, input, output, and statuses to the operation descriptions... 
I'm not convinced if this is the best way to do this, but I find it
handy to have a conscise "quick reference" for the webapi operations
which summarize all related I/O.

Another possibility is to reject this patch, but create a separate
"webapi_quickref.html" with a concise table.

6c0e894134 doc: architecture.txt: start updating architecture.txt 
I chose to remove mention of non-convergent encoding, not because I dislike non-convergent encoding, but because that option isn't currently expressed in the API and in order to shorten architecture.txt.  I renamed "URI" to "Capability".  I did some editing, including updating a few places that treated all capabilities as CHK-capabilities and that mentioned that distributed SSKs were not yet implemented.

0eb31774d1 docs: a bunch of updates to simplify the process of installing from source and running Tahoe 
These changes are a work-in-progress -- there are many incomplete and incorrect parts, but the install.html and running.html files 
are complete and should work (and they are delightfully concise!).  I'm pushing this just to let people see incremental progress 
and to solicit feedback.  "Testing out" the install.html and running.html files and submitting patches or bug reports would be 
quite welcome.

More to come.

59d6c3c822 decentralized directories: integration and testing 
* use new decentralized directories everywhere instead of old centralized directories
 * provide UI to them through the web server
 * provide UI to them through the CLI
 * update unit tests to simulate decentralized mutable directories in order to test other components that rely on them
 * remove the notion of a "vdrive server" and a client thereof
 * remove the notion of a "public vdrive", which was a directory that was centrally published/subscribed automatically by the tahoe node (you can accomplish this manually by making a directory and posting the URL to it on your web site, for example)
 * add a notion of "wait_for_numpeers" when you need to publish data to peers, which is how many peers should be attached before you start.  The default is 1.
 * add __repr__ for filesystem nodes (note: these reprs contain a few bits of the secret key!)
 * fix a few bugs where we used to equate "mutable" with "not read-only".  Nowadays all directories are mutable, but some might be read-only (to you).
 * fix a few bugs where code wasn't aware of the new general-purpose metadata dict the comes with each filesystem edge
 * sundry fixes to unit tests to adjust to the new directories, e.g. don't assume that every share on disk belongs to a chk file.

d777283e9e implement preliminary log publisher/gatherer 
This creates a Referenceable object that will eventually be able to publish
log events to a remote subscriber (at present all it can do is provide
version information). The FURL for this logport is written to 'logport.furl'.

In addition, if a file named 'log_gatherer.furl' is present, the given target
will be contacted and offered access to the logport. This can be used by a
centralized logging agent to subscribe to logs, e.g. from all the nodes in a
centrally-maintained storage grid. (think syslog -r, but with all the
security properties of FURLs, and permitting non-printable strings and
structured data).

Once this framework matures a bit, it will be moved into Foolscap.

This is a potentially disruptive and potentially ugly change to the code base,
because I renamed the object that serves in both roles from "Queen" to
"IntroducerAndVdrive", which is a bit of an ugly name.

However, I think that clarity is important enough in this release to make this
change.  All unit tests pass.  I'm now darcs recording this patch in order to
pull it to other machines for more testing.
