[BOUNTY] Decentralized GitHub #1 - beeson-git schema

[crtahlin]

Motivation / background / user story:

git is a widely adopted and used versioning system. Platforms such a GitHub allow for open source code to be publicly shared and maintained. A decentralized solution would allow for independence from any one platform, by being hosted by a community of peers. Swarm decentralized storage and related technologies developed under Fair Data Society allow for such decentralized solutions.

With fdp-storage and beeson we are able to create a simple decentralized git server. This will require a set of smart contracts and CLI to implement a basic git on top of Swarm.

This bounty is about creating beeson schema for git, similar to how IPLD has for git (see https://github.com/ipld/js-ipld-git).

Tasks

• Familiarize yourself with the beeson repo: https://github.com/fairDataSociety/beeson
• Familiarize yourself with the fdp-storage repo: https://github.com/fairDataSociety/fdp-storage
• Create public repo on Github that contains code
• Implement beeson-git schema library in Typescript, including unit tests, documentation and use cases.

Approving criteria

What needs to be done / demonstrated to consider the bounty finished.

• A new, open-source repository is created and link to repository posted under the issue
• Use open source license Apache 2.0
• Tasks completed
• documentation included in the README of the repository

Timeline

Estimated time needed for this bounty is around 1 week.

Deadline: 1 calendar weeks after approval.

Compensation: In BZZ tokens in amount of 800 DAI at the date of payment (as of the price of BZZ / DAI on the day of the payout as determined by Fair Data Society).

I have experience with similar tasks. It would be very interesting to be involved in the creation of a git on top of swarm. I will be happy to comply. 2) manyrios has applied to start work _(Funders only: approve worker | reject worker)_.

Decentralized github sounds great. I would be happy to work with this. Swarm has many potential 3) vividwood has applied to start work _(Funders only: approve worker | reject worker)_.

Hi I have experience with fdp and will create beeson schema for git 4) soheil555 has applied to start work _(Funders only: approve worker | reject worker)_.

Work plan:

• Calculating CID
• Serializing and Unserializing the Git objects (Blob, Commit, Tree, Tag)
• Adding resolver
• Unit tests

The project is interesting. I have experience with FDP and It would be a pleasure to work on this project. 5) libengd has applied to start work _(Funders only: approve worker | reject worker)_.

I will be happy to participate in this bounty. I will create beeson schema for git usin IPLD implementation as a reference
