# Hyperarchiver [](https://travis-ci.org/joehand/hyperarchiver) [](https://npmjs.org/package/hyperarchiver)
Zero config server and API for hypercore-archiver.
### Features
* **Rest API**: Add & remove archives to host & backup
* **Dat Network**: Connect automatically to archives over the Dat network. Acts as a public peer for all archives added.
* **Access Archives via HTTP**: View metadata and archive files over HTTP.
Built with:
* [hypercore-archiver](https://github.com/mafintosh/hypercore-archiver): Storage, archive management and replication
* [archiver-server](https://github.com/joehand/archiver-server): Serve archives via [discovery-swarm](https://github.com/mafintosh/discovery-swarm) and [hyperdrive-http](https://github.com/joehand/hyperdrive-http)
* [archiver-api](https://github.com/joehand/archiver-api): Rest API for hypercore-archiver
## Usage
### Install from NPM:
```
npm install -g hyperarchiver
```
### Run the servers!
```
hyperarchiver --dir archives
```
This starts two servers, one for HTTP access and one for Dat Network access.
* Archives will be stored in directory specified by `--dir`.
* Add new archives by sending a POST request to `/add`.
* Added archives will be available over the Dat network
* Access archives over http via `/`
### Add Archives
Once the server is running, you can add archives (make sure you are hosting them over Dat). Send a POST request with `YOUR_DAT_KEY`:
```
curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"key":"YOUR_DAT_KEY"}' http://127.0.0.1:8080/add
```
### Usage Details
See all the options by running with the `--help` option:
```
hyperarchiver --help
```
### Http Routes
#### `/add`: add a new archive
Send a POST request to `/add` with a JSON object, `{"key": "YOUR_DAT_KEY"}`, to add a new archive.
hyperarchiver will connect to the archive over Dat, copy it, and serve it over Dat and HTTP.
#### `/remove`: remove an archive
Send a POST request to `/remove` with a JSON object, `{"key": "YOUR_DAT_KEY"}`, to remove a new archive.
hyperarchiver stop serving the archive and remove it from the database.
#### `/status`: hyperarchiver status
Send a GET request to `/status` to view the hyperarchiver status.
#### `/`
View metadata for an archive that has been added.
#### `//`
View a file in an archive.
## API
### `var hyperarchiver = Hyperarchiver(opts)`
Create a `hypercore-archiver` and attach the `archiver-server` and `archiver-api`. Hyperarchiver doesn't do much besides glue those three modules together.
```js
opts = {
dir: 'archives', // required
swarm: true, // join dat swarm.
archiveHttp: true, // serve archives over http
datPort: 3282, // port for dat swarm
}
```
* `hyperarchiver.api` is `archiver-api`
* `hyperarchiver.dat` is `archiver-server`
* `hyperarchiver.archiver` is `hypercore-archiver`
See `cli.js` for example usage.
