Blumen

Appearance

Swarm ​

Blumen supports uploading on the Swarm decentralized network via Swarmy and a Bee node.

Swarmy ​

  • API token env variables: BLUMEN_SWARMY_TOKEN
  • Supported methods: Upload

Blumen supports uploading on the Swarm decentralized network via Swarmy, a storage provider. A website is not possible to upload both on Swarm and IPFS, so when opting in for Swarmy, other providers will be ignored.

Setup ​

To use Swarmy, you need to create an account on Swarmy. Afterwards, you should request a storage quota on the "Billing" page.

After receiving your storage quota, generate an API key from the "API Keys" section.

Running the deployment ​

Once you have your API key, put it in the environment variables:

BLUMEN_SWARMY_TOKEN=123...

Then run the deployment command:

sh
blumen deploy --ens blumen.stauro.eth --safe eth:0x...

Bee node ​

  • API token env variables: BLUMEN_BEE_TOKEN, BLUMEN_BEE_URL
  • Supported methods: Upload
  1. Fund your node wallet by depositing BZZ.
  2. Calculate the amount and depth parameters for a postage stamp batch using the batch calculator. Select how much storage you need and for how long you would like your website to stay on the network. It is possible to top up a batch later.
  3. Buy a postage stamp batch for the Bee node:
sh
curl -sX POST http://localhost:1633/stamps/<amount>/<depth>
# {
#   "batchID": "8fcec40c65841e0c3c56679315a29a6495d32b9ed506f2757e03cdd778552c6b", <-- you need this
#   "txHash": "0x51c77ac171efd930eca8f3a77e3fcd5aca0a7353b84d5562f8e9c13f5907b675"
# }

Add the batch ID to the environment variables:

sh
BLUMEN_BEE_TOKEN=8fcec40c65841e0c3c56679315a29a6495d32b9ed506f2757e03cdd778552c6b

Then run the the deployment command:

sh
blumen deploy --ens blumen.stauro.eth --safe eth:0x...
