Specifications

Extensions

Extensions are (locally run) external programs integrated directly into the Server component (Server.exe)

The solid project

The solid project is used to store the data. The add ons File_read and File_set are interfaces to the solid project. All data should flow throgh these interfaces allowing you to terminate any given add-ons acess to your data from within the solid project.

Kubernetes

Kubernetes are integrated into the Server.exe file however currently the kubernete functionality is not used

Docker

Docker is integrated into the Server.exe file and it is the back bone that runs add ons.

Scheduling_project

A side project I created as an add on however it ended up becoming an extension instead. It acts as a statistical inference engine optimised for revision.

My tagger component

The basis of my simulatrix system which intends to act as a multimodal AI for bidirectional media interaction and potentially a new approach to computational physics in the future. It is the brain that extracts form from information.

Add ons

Add ons (aka packages) are typically docker images that are run by the Server.exe component through the docker extension however in the future I will introduce the capability to run add ons on a kubernete instead. Conceptually add ons are such that they aren’t neccessarily open source however the specification of a given add on should be provided such that you can create a new add on with the same specification and it will work the same within the datacentral ecosystem.

File_edit

An add on that allows you to edit text files. It is chunked under the hood meaning you can make infinite edits with a constant amount of lag (because each chunk has a small size and adding edits just adds more chunks)

Specification:

/CreateChunk/{file_name] Type: GET Description: Creates a new chunk

/Edit_uploads/{file_name} Type: POST(Accepts a request with form data attatched with a file object included in the form data in “file”) Description: Adds the file to the local directory

/Get_file/{file_name} Type: GET Description: Returns a file from the local directory

/Get_files Type: GET Description: Returns a list of files from the local directory

/Recieve_file/{file_name} Type: POST(with the file embedded in the post request directly) Description: Adds the file to the local directory

File_read

An add on that allows you to upload files to the solid database

Specification: /Download_files/chunks Type: POST(with the file embedded in form data) Description: Uploads the file to the local directory

/Get_files Type: GET Description: Returns a list of files in the local directory

/Reference_index/{file_name} Type: GET Description: Returns a list of reference indices of a file (Basically if you choose to “encrypt” a file the file is actually stored within solid in an encrypted form and a reference index is generated which is a list of all the words in the file and this is required to de-encrypt the file providing an extra layer of security however reference indices are going to have a special use in the future as well).

/Reference_index/{file_name}/{Chunk_no} Type: GET Description: Returns the file index of a given chunk

File_set

An add on that allows you to view the files in your solid database and send them to the text editor add on

Specification:

/download/{file_name} Type: GET Description: Returns the corresponding file from the local directory

/sendFile/{file_name} Type: GET Description: Sends the file from solid to the text editor

Package_manager

An add on that allows you to view the details of packages, remove packages and add new packages (by pulling new images)

Specification: This add on does not have a specification as such as it is independent from all other add ons so there are no routes used by other add ons
