> [Feathers](http://feathersjs.com) [`abstract blob store`](https://github.com/maxogden/abstract-blob-store) service

## Installation

```shell
npm install feathers-blob --save
```

Also install a [`abstract-blob-store` compatible module](https://github.com/maxogden/abstract-blob-store#some-modules-that-use-this).

## API

### `const BlobService = require('feathers-blob')`

### `blobService = BlobService(options)`

- `options.Model` is an instantiated interface [that implements the `abstract-blob-store` API](https://github.com/maxogden/abstract-blob-store#api)
- `options.id` is a string 'key' for the blob identifier.
- `returnUri` defaults is `true`, set it to `false` to remove it from output.
- `returnBuffer` defaults is `false` , set it to `true` to return buffer in the output.

**Tip**: `returnUri`/`returnBuffer` are mutually exclusive.

If you only want a buffer output instead of a data URI on create/get operations, you need to set `returnBuffer` to be `true`, also to set `retuarnUri` to be `false`.

If you need both, use the default options, then extract the buffer from the data URI on the client-side to avoid transferring the data twice over the wire.

### `blobService.create(body, params)`

where input `body` is an object with either:
* a key `uri` pointing to [data URI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_URI_scheme) of the blob,
* a key `buffer` pointing to [raw data buffer](https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html) of the blob along with its `contentType` (i.e. MIME type).

Optionally, you can specify in the `body` the blob `id` which can be the file
path where you want to store the file, otherwise it would default to
`${hash(content)}.${extension(contentType)}`.

**Tip**: You can use feathers hooks to customize the `id`. You might not want the
client-side to write whereever they want.

returns output 'data' of the form:

```js
{
[this.id]: `${hash(content)}.${extension(contentType)}`,
uri: body.uri, // When returnUri options is set true
buffer: body.buffer, // When returnBuffer options is set true
size: length(content)
}
```

### `blobService.get(id, params)`

returns output `data` of the same form as `create`.

### `blobService.remove(id, params)`

#### Params:

Query:

- `VersionId` (string): Version ID of document to access if using a versioned s3 bucket

Example:

```js
blobService.get('my-file.pdf', {
query: {VersionId: 'xslkdfjlskdjfskljf.sdjfdkjfkdjfd'},
})
```

## Example

```js
const { getBase64DataURI } = require('dauria');
const AWS = require('aws-sdk');
const S3BlobStore = require('s3-blob-store');
const feathers = require('@feathersjs/feathers');
const BlobService = require('feathers-blob');

const s3 = new AWS.S3({
endpoint: 'https://{service}.{region}.{provider}.com',
accessKeyId: process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
secretAccessKey: process.env.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY,
});

const blobStore = S3BlobStore({
client: s3,
bucket: 'feathers-blob'
});

const blob = {
uri: getBase64DataURI(new Buffer('hello world'), 'text/plain')
}

const app = feathers();

app.use('/upload', BlobService({
Model: blobStore
}));

const blobService = app.service('upload');

blobService.create(blob).then(function (result) {
console.log('Stored blob with id', result.id);
}).catch(err => {
console.error(err);
});
```

Should you need to change your bucket's [options](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSJavaScriptSDK/latest/AWS/S3.html#putObject-property), such as permissions, pass a `params.s3` object using a before hook.

```js
app.service('upload').before({
create(hook) {
   hook.params.s3 = { ACL: 'public-read' }; // makes uploaded files public
 }
});
```

For a more complete example, see [examples/app](./examples/app.js) which can be run with `npm run example`.

## Tests

Tests can be run by installing the node modules and running `npm run test`.

To test the S3 read/write capabilities set the environmental variable `S3_BUCKET` to the name of a bucket you have read/write access to. Enable the versioning functionality on the bucket.
