Kudzu is a automation digital asset File Sharing protocol forked from IPFS and birds that integrates blockchain networks and the kudzu distributed Messaging protocols and AI-DevOPs automation smart contracts Ecosystem for integration with DApps, enterprise legacy systems , the cloud , nosql databases and machine learning algorithms. The API documentation walks developers through BTFS setup, usage, and contains all the API references.
Kudzu can run on most Linux, macOS, and Windows systems. We recommend running it on a machine with at least 2 GB of RAM (it’ll do fine with only one CPU core), but it should run fine with as little as 1 GB of RAM. On systems with less memory, it may not be completely stable. Only support compiling from source for mac and unix-based system.
GCC is required to build btfs from source code. Approaches to install GCC may vary from operating system to operating system. To install GCC on Debian and Ubuntu system, please run the following commands:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential manpages-dev
To verify that GCC has been successfully installed on your machine, please run this command:
gcc --version
The build process for btfs requires Go 1.13 or higher. If you don't have it: Download Go 1.13+. Or use the following command:
cd /tmp
GO_PACKAGE=go1.13.linux-amd64.tar.gz
wget https://golang.org/dl/$GO_PACKAGE
sudo tar -xvf $GO_PACKAGE
sudo mv go /usr/local
sudo rm $GO_PACKAGE
go version
You'll need to add Go's bin directories to your $PATH
environment
variable e.g., by adding these lines to your /etc/profile
(for a
system-wide installation) or $HOME/.profile
:
export GOPATH=${HOME}/go
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin
export GO111MODULE=on
(If you run into trouble, see the Go install instructions).
$ git clone https://github.com/TRON-US/go-btfs.git
$ cd go-btfs
Your can choose to using on-step script to compile and build or just follow step by step.
bash install_btfs.sh
$ go clean -modcache
$ make install
go version go1.13 linux/amd64
bin/check_go_version 1.13
go install -ldflags="-X "github.com/btfs/go-btfs".CurrentCommit=<git hash>" ./cmd/btfs
If you are building on FreeBSD instead of make install
use gmake install
.
Show if btfs exec file has been created:
$which btfs
/home/ubuntu/go/bin/btfs
$ btfs init
initializing BTFS node at /home/ubuntu/.btfs
generating 2048-bit keypair...done
peer identity: 16Uiu2HAmHmW9mHcE9c5UfUomy8caBuEgJVP99MDb4wFtzF8URgzE
to get started, enter:
btfs cat /btfs/QmPbWqakofrBdDSm4mLUS5RE5QiPQi8JbnK73LgWwQNdbi/readme
Create a config.yaml file in the same path of your btfs binary path. The config.yaml file has the following context:
version: 0.0.4 # btfs version, order by version.go
md5: 034cf64b76f8bf5f506ce6aca9fa81c4 #btfs binary md5
autoupdateFlg: true # is auto update
sleepTimeSeconds: 20 # how often to auto update (second).
Enable Cross-Origin Resource Sharing:
$ btfs config --json API.HTTPHeaders.Access-Control-Allow-Origin "[\"*\"]"
$ btfs config --json API.HTTPHeaders.Access-Control-Allow-Methods '["PUT", "GET", "POST", "OPTIONS"]'
$ btfs config --json API.HTTPHeaders.Access-Control-Allow-Credentials "[\"true\"]"
Enable gateway, api port:
$ btfs config Addresses.API /ip4/0.0.0.0/tcp/5001
$ btfs config Addresses.Gateway /ip4/0.0.0.0/tcp/8080
you need to make sure there is no btfs node already running, using `ps -ef |grep "btfs daemon"` to check if there is btfs node running and then kill the node process if it is, then running the following command:
$ sudo nohup btfs daemon </dev/null >/dev/null 2>&1 &
Check if your node is connect to BTFS private net:
$ btfs swarm peers
/ip4/3.18.120.107/tcp/4001/btfs/QmcmRdAHQYTtpbs9Ud5rNx6WzHmU9WcYCrBneCSyKhMr7H

btfs uses a repository in the local file system. By default, the repo is
located at ~/.btfs. To change the repo location, set the $BTFS_PATH
environment variable:
export BTFS_PATH=/path/to/btfsrepo
Please refer to the documentation for the btfs-binary-releases project.
- This section is limited to maintenance personnel of btfs-binary-release.
- Make sure go-btfs and btfs-binary-release are in the same directory.
- Download go-btfs and btfs-binary-release repo.
git clone https://github.com/TRON-US/go-btfs.git
git clone https://github.com/TRON-US/btfs-binary-releases.git
- Create a branch to upload in btfs-binary-release.
cd btfs-binary-releases
git checkout -b uploader
- Execute automatic packaging script.
cd ../go-btfs
bash package.sh
Now you will generate all supported versions of the binary package. Push it to the remote to generate the pull request, we will review your pr and merge it into the master.
To start using BTFS, you must first initialize BTFS's config files on your
system, this is done with btfs init
. See btfs init --help
for information on
the optional arguments it takes. After initialization is complete, you can use
btfs mount
, btfs add
and any of the other commands to explore!
Basic proof of 'btfs working' locally:
echo "hello world" > hello
btfs add hello
# This should output a hash string that looks something like:
# QmT78zSuBmuS4z925WZfrqQ1qHaJ56DQaTfyMUF7F8ff5o
btfs cat <that hash>
Some places to get you started on the codebase:
- Main file: ./cmd/btfs/main.go
- CLI Commands: ./core/commands/
- libp2p
make test
If you make changes to the protocol buffers, you will need to install the protoc compiler.
You are welcome to use BTFS, but if you don’t want to set up your own nodes, you can use the Soter gateway directly to upload files, which are then stored on BTFS.
