Cy💎

Cy - a Nushell wrapper for cyber, ipfs and other CLIs for interacting with Cybergraphs.

Status

Very much WIP. Actively developed.

Key features of Cy

Different settings for different profiles (RPC endpoints, private keys, networks, etc.)
Seamlessly upload and download data to a Cybernode or to a local IPFS node
Create multiple cyberlinks and publish them simoltaneously
Export Cybergraphs to formats of Cosmograph, Gephi, Graphviz
Shortcuts for interacting with the Bostrom's passport smart contract
Cyber search in terminal
Many more (see list of functions below)

Installation

Quick start

If you have nushell, git and cyber CLI-s installed:

git clone https://github.com/cyber-prophet/cy; cd cy;
overlay use -pr cy/

Install all the necessary apps using homebrew (Mac, Linux)

Open Terminal app on your computer.

Install brew
Add a custom tap to your Homebrew, install all the dependencies for running Cy:

brew tap cyber-prophet/homebrew-taps; brew install cybundle; cybundle

The commands above will install the following software on your computer if it is not installed yet:
1. cybundle script
2. nushell app
3. rustup: the Rust toolchain installer (needed for installation of nu_plugin_polars)
4. curl (optional)
5. cyber (optional)
6. pussy (optional)
7. kubo: ipfs cli (optional)
8. mdcat: markdown viewer (optional)

After installation, you can launch nu in your terminal with already configured cy in it.

First steps using Cy

To start using Cy, follow the instructions on your screen. They should include:

Add a key to your cyber cli (cyber keys add 'test')
Go through the wizard cy config-new.
See all the commands in logical order by executing cy.
See all the commands suggestions by entering cy + tab.

Installation (Windows)

Windows supports WSL2. Install it first: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install. By default, it should install Ubuntu on your computer. And when Ubuntu is installed and launched, proceed with the steps described in the section of installation for MacOS and Linux of this manual.

Cyber-family blockchains

Bostrom is the name of the consensus computer that maintains a general-purpose, permissionless informational graph where nodes are CIDs of files in the IPFS network, and edges are Cyberlinks (consisting of source, destination, author, height - records) written into the blockchain. The information written into the blockchain is secured to remain in existence as long as the blockchain is operative. The blockchain is designed with economic incentives that motivate validators to sustain the network. For further information about Cyber blockchains, please refer to Bostrom Journal.

References to the documentation of Cy

I intend to locate all the documentation of Cy in one place to prevent fragmentation of attention.

In the comments to its code (.nu files of this repository, mainly in cy.nu).
From the code, the documentation is semi-automatically parsed and written to .md documents of this repository (mainly to README.md).

The main feedback resource is GitHub issues.

Commands

cy pin-text

  Pin a text particle

Usage:
  > pin-text {flags} (text_param)

  pin text 'cyber', get it's cid
  > cy pin-text 'cyber'
  QmRX8qYgeZoYM3M5zzQaWEpVFdpin6FvVXvp6RPQK3oufV

  pin text 'cyber.txt', get it's cid
  > cy pin-text 'cyber.txt'
  QmXLmkZxEyRk5XELoGpxhQJDBj798CkHeMdkoCKYptSCA6

  save text 'cyber' to the file. Use flag `--follow_file_path` to pin the content of file, but not it's name
  > "cyber" | save -f cyber.txt; cy pin-text 'cyber.txt' --follow_file_path
  QmRX8qYgeZoYM3M5zzQaWEpVFdpin6FvVXvp6RPQK3oufV

  use `cy pin-text` with some cid, to see that it will return the cid by default unchanged
  > cy pin-text 'QmRX8qYgeZoYM3M5zzQaWEpVFdpin6FvVXvp6RPQK3oufV'
  QmRX8qYgeZoYM3M5zzQaWEpVFdpin6FvVXvp6RPQK3oufV

  use `--ignore_cid` flag to calculate hash from the initial cid as if it is a regular text
  > cy pin-text 'QmRX8qYgeZoYM3M5zzQaWEpVFdpin6FvVXvp6RPQK3oufV' --ignore_cid
  QmcDUZon6VQLR3gjAvSKnudSVQ2RbGXUtFFV8mR6zHZK8F

Flags:
  --only_hash - calculate hash only, don't pin anywhere
  --ignore_cid - work with CIDs as regular texts, don't use them as they are
  --follow_file_path - check if `text_param` is a valid path, and if yes - try to open it
  --skip_save_particle_in_cache - don't save particle to local cache in cid.md file #totest
