Veracy Server

Veracy Server is a distributed content management system that handles image storage, user authentication, and payment verification using the Arweave blockchain.

Features

• Distributed Storage: P2P network for distributed image storage and retrieval
• Blockchain Integration: Arweave blockchain integration for payment verification and content ownership
• User Authentication: JWT-based authentication system with public key cryptography
• Access Control: Content privacy management with payment verification
• Admin Interface: Administrative tools for content moderation
• Feedback System: User feedback collection and management

Prerequisites

• Go 1.19 or higher
• SQLite3
• Access to Arweave network
• SSL certificate (for production)

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/veracy.server.git
cd veracy.server

1. Install dependencies:

go mod tidy

1. Configure environment variables:

# .env
SECRET=your_jwt_secret_here
ADMIN_KEY=your_admin_rsa_public_key_here

1. Start the server:

go run .

1. Bootstrap the server:

# TCP:
go run . -b /ip4/{SERVER_IP}/tcp/8079/p2p/{NODE_ID} -p {PORT} -g {GROUP_TOPIC}

# UDP QUIC:
go run . -b /ip4/{SERVER_IP}/udp/8078/quic-v1/p2p/{NODE_ID} -p {PORT} -g {GROUP_TOPIC}

Configuration

The server can be configured using command-line flags:

• -p: HTTP interface port (default: 8080)
• -p-tcp: TCP port for P2P network (default: 8079)
• -p-udp: UDP port for P2P network (default: 8078)
• -b: Bootstrap node multiaddress
• -g: P2P network group topic
