Storj is building a decentralized cloud storage network and is launching in early 2019.

Storj is an S3 compatible platform and suite of decentralized applications that allows you to store data in a secure and decentralized manner. Your files are encrypted, broken into little pieces and stored in a global decentralized network of computers. Luckily, we also support allowing you (and only you) to retrieve those files!

Download and install the latest release of Go, at least Go 1.11: https://golang.org/

You will also need Git. (brew install git, apt-get install git, etc).

Install git and golang. We support Linux, Mac, and Windows operating systems. Other operating systems supported by Go are probably not much additional work.

Aside about GOPATH: Go 1.11 supports a new feature called Go modules, and Storj has adopted Go module support. If you've used previous Go versions, Go modules no longer require a GOPATH environment variable. Go by default falls back to the old behavior if you check out code inside of the directory referenced by your GOPATH variable, so make sure to use another directory, unset GOPATH entirely, or set GO111MODULE=on before continuing with these instructions. If you don't have a GOPATH set, you can ignore this aside.

git clone [email protected]:storj/storj storj
cd storj
go install -v ./cmd/...

~/go/bin/captplanet setup

~/go/bin/captplanet run

go test -v ./...

You can execute only a single test package if you like. For example: go test ./pkg/kademlia. Add -v for more informations about the executed unit tests.

1. In a new terminal setup the Storj CLI: $ storj setup
2. Edit the API Key, overlay address, and pointer db address fields in the Storj CLI config file located at ~/.storj/cli/config.yaml with values from the captplanet config file located at ~/.storj/capt/config.yaml

1. Create a bucket: $ storj mb s3://bucket-name
2. Upload an object: $ storj cp ~/Desktop/your-large-file.mp4 s3://bucket-name
3. List objects in a bucket: $ storj ls s3://bucket-name/
4. Download an object: $ storj cp s3://bucket-name/your-large-file.mp4 ~/Desktop/your-large-file.mp4
5. Delete an object: $ storj rm s3://bucket-name/your-large-file.mp4

Download and install the AWS S3 CLI: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/installing.html

In a new terminal session configure the AWS S3 CLI:

$ aws configure
AWS Access Key ID [None]: insecure-dev-access-key
AWS Secret Access Key [None]: insecure-dev-secret-key
Default region name [None]: us-east-1
Default output format [None]:

1. Create a bucket: $ aws s3 --endpoint=http://localhost:7777/ mb s3://bucket-name
2. Upload an object: $ aws s3 --endpoint=http://localhost:7777/ cp ~/Desktop/your-large-file.mp4 s3://bucket-name
3. List objects in a bucket: $ aws s3 --endpoint=http://localhost:7777/ ls s3://bucket-name/
4. Download an object: $ aws s3 --endpoint=http://localhost:7777/ cp s3://bucket-name/your-large-file.mp4 ~/Desktop/your-large-file.mp4
5. Generate a URL for an object: $ aws s3 --endpoint=http://localhost:7777/ presign s3://bucket-name/your-large-file.mp4
6. Delete an object: $ aws s3 --endpoint=http://localhost:7777/ rm s3://bucket-name/your-large-file.mp4
