With client support, any user can contribute to the repository, so a group of friends could build their own. You can also use third party repositories

I took your advice and built a gif nostr companion app:

https://gifbuddy.lol/

You can download the PWA to your home screen, search for your gif, copy the address and paste it into your client

On the back end, for every gif that gets copied/clicked, an API request is made to upload to nostr:npub1nxy4qpqnld6kmpphjykvx2lqwvxmuxluddwjamm4nc29ds3elyzsm5avr7 by nostr:npub137c5pd8gmhhe0njtsgwjgunc5xjr2vmzvglkgqs5sjeh972gqqxqjak37w

From there a nip94 request is done so that the content can be accessed by any client in the future

Now, anyone who searches for gifs using this tool is also helping to build the gif repository for nip94 and adding fallback urls to nostr.build

And all they did was click to copy #gifs

Hmm now i have a link to tenor?

Avatar
The Fishcake (nostr.build) 1y ago

It gives tenor link and does upload async after that.

Avatar

So it comes into effect if tenor decides to take down the media or dies, as a backup source. Nice.

it's not copying the new URL. Only taking the tenor one. It says it is copied but isn't maybe you need a prompt for brave to ask permissions to use the clipboard? Brave on Linux Mint. If it showed the full url in the pop up it could also manually be copied.

Avatar
lemon 1y ago 💬 1

The copied link is a Tenor link by intent

When you click a gif, a separate API call is made on the back end to upload to nostr.build

That process takes time that would really hinder the user experience if you had to wait for the new url to be generated in order copy it; it’s several seconds

Avatar
The Fishcake (nostr.build) 1y ago 💬 2

I could potentially make a separate API that will return URL instantly, and will redirect to Tenor while upload is prepared, and then serve local copy. If you are interested, let me know.

lemon 1y ago 💬 1

There have been a couple comments in my feed from people expecting to paste a nostr.build address so that could be cool

Your API is fast already, it's mostly that nip98 AUTH requires me to publish a Kind 27235 note, which takes time to broadcast with my current library

Were you thinking this API would be separate from nip98?

Avatar
The Fishcake (nostr.build) 1y ago

Nip98 does not require anything, just a signed header. You are talking about nip94, that can be pushed async.

I would probably need that for user uploaded gifs actually now that I think about it more

Building static paths to serve files (gifs on this case) is not a good path for decentralization. It would be better to store the sha256 of the file on the note and then query the relays if they have that hash on their disks.

This way you don't care which server the file is coming from, it might even be cached on the machine and notes will be future-proof like the rest of nostr.

Avatar
lemon 1y ago

That’s what nip94 allows for and that’s what gets published once it’s uploaded to nostr:npub1nxy4qpqnld6kmpphjykvx2lqwvxmuxluddwjamm4nc29ds3elyzsm5avr7

If you read the specification, a nip94 event has the sha256 hash, a url and a fallback url

The url is convenient right now because no clients that I’m aware of query sha256 hashes like you are mentioning; however, this process sets up that foundation to be possible in the future for clients to query hashes like you’re proposing

Thank you for the note, hadn't read that NIP yet. Happy these issues got addressed beforehand. Plus points for the torrent field inside.

I will pack everything inside a zip archive and then use NIP94 for sharing it.
