================

Reva is an interoperability platform consisting of several daemons written in Go.
It acts as bridge between high-level clients (mobile, web, desktop) and the underlying storage (CephFS, EOS, local filesytems).
It exports well-known APIs, like WebDAV, to faciliate access from these devices.
It also exports a high-performance gRPC API, codenamed [CS3 APIs](https://buf.build/cs3org-buf/cs3apis), to easily integrate with other systems.
Reva is meant to be a high performant and customizable HTTP and gRPC server.
## Installation
Head to the [Releases](https://github.com/cs3org/reva/releases) to get the latest available release.
## Documentation & Support
Read the [beginners guide](https://github.com/cs3org/reva/wiki/beginners-guide) and the other featured guides in the [wiki](https://github.com/cs3org/reva/wiki). The wiki includes tutorials and guides contributed by the community.
In addition, at https://reva.link you can learn about the Reva project and its software components.
### Build and run it yourself
You need to have [Go](https://golang.org/doc/install) (version 1.21 or higher), [git](https://git-scm.com/) and [make](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Make_(software)) installed. Some of these commands may require `sudo`, depending on your system setup.
```
# build
$ git clone https://github.com/cs3org/reva
$ cd reva
$ make revad
$ cmd/revad/revad --version
```
You can also read the [build from sources guide](https://github.com/cs3org/reva/wiki/build-reva) and the [setup tutorial](https://github.com/cs3org/reva/wiki/setup-tutorial).
### Run tests
To run unit tests do:
`make test-go`
To run gRPC integration tests do:
`make test-integration`
You can get more verbose output with `ginkgo -v -r tests/integration/`.
To run EOS tests you need to have an up and running Docker system:
`make docker-eos-full-tests`
## Versioning
The `master` branch is the stable development branch. All versions are tagged from it except for the `2.x` series: such versions were tagged out of a different branch codenamed `edge`, which now lives in external forks.
## Docker images
See [https://hub.docker.com/r/cs3org/reva](https://hub.docker.com/r/cs3org/reva).
## Plugin development
You can extend Reva without having to create PR's to this repo.
To do so, you can create plugins, pease checkout the [Wiki](https://github.com/cs3org/reva/wiki).
