Hello PSS

Swarm hello world

# Geth new account
geth account new
echo "0ab9f275308307188de76f82cbc08a5258b03110" >> alice.tmp

# Get rid of password prompt later
echo "" >> password.tmp

# Start swarm node
swarm --bzzaccount `cat alice.tmp`

# Test up and down
swarm up README.md > readme-ref.tmp
swarm down bzz:/`cat readme-ref.tmp` test.tmp

Feeds

# Using human readable topic, can equally well use --topic
swarm --bzzaccount `cat alice.tmp` feed create --name "bob"
# Returns feed manifest
# 2a0ddb7d63cc4926d168697da1ad76bdad3782611c8f75bd1ce2f8b5e096b6e0

# XXX: What's the difference? Doesn't it use bzzapi and use local instance by default?
swarm --bzzaccount `cat alice.tmp` --bzzapi http://localhost:8500 feed create --name "bob"
# 2a0ddb7d63cc4926d168697da1ad76bdad3782611c8f75bd1ce2f8b5e096b6e0

# XXX: What to do with feed manifest? How get it?

# Posting to a feed using name/topic/manifest, need hex, example here
swarm --bzzaccount `cat alice.tmp` feed update --name bob 0x68656c6c6f2031

# Reading feed info 
swarm --bzzaccount `cat alice.tmp` feed info --name "bob"
# {"feed":{"topic":"0x626f620000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000","user":"0x0ab9f275308307188de76f82cbc08a5258b03110"},"epoch":{"time":1554695168,"level":24},"protocolVersion":0}

# Reading feed updates, can't with CLI but
curl 'http://localhost:8500/bzz-feed:/?user=0x0ab9f275308307188de76f82cbc08a510&name=bob'
# `hello 1` = hex above? +1

# Posting message to feed 
echo "Hello world" > message
# Need right format for hex
cat message | hexdump -v -e '/1 "%02x"' > hex-message

swarm --bzzaccount `cat alice.tmp` --password password.tmp feed update --name bob 0x`cat hex-message`

curl 'http://localhost:8500/bzz-feed:/?user=0x0ab9f275308307188de76f82cbc08a5258b03110&name=bob'
# Hello world

We can use --user to refer to another person as opposed to bzzaccount by default.

PSS

First, standalone with ethereum-samples. Second, in Go script send and receive (WIP).

Testing only: private keys galore

Ok we have two (hardcoded) independent, locally running Geth nodes with swarm service messaging over PSS:

Received message Hello world from 307830346335363133316438646564393065373962373662393766323665386663303332353937383836666636386162363535376639316334626631616534366561623934343135633664663330626236343739636634306638313139373762623262323337373837663562383037643937313931663761393934613535383633336530

How to run

# Run receiver
./scripts/run-bob 

# Run sender
 ./scripts/run-alice

Next steps?

Put logs elsewhere
Allow send and receive from both (bg subscribe)?
Allow interactive message send?
When sending, also update to feeds
For feeds, move from curl cli to go/jsonrpc api
When going online, allow querying of feeds
In message, also includes message dependencies

Later
