renter.HostKeyResolver #13

Closed jkawamoto closed 4 years ago

jkawamoto commented 4 years ago

Would it be possible that walrus.Client implements renter.HostKeyResolver interface?

I think the host DB is provided by https://github.com/lukechampine/shard, and we need to run both walrus and shard. However, both of them need to have a copy of the consensus DB, and running two servers seems not efficient storage-wise and network traffic-wise.

It would be nice if walrus can provide host DB or walrus and shard servers can share one copy of the consensus DB.

Recently I added support to muse for running both a walrus instance and shard instance from the same consensus set: https://github.com/lukechampine/muse/commit/0906d74036b2b8a12c717d2abdc641a541bc4c8e

I would also like to add support for HTTP consensus subscription to walrus and shard so that you can use them with an existing siad node. That will be slightly less stable and performant, though, so I recommend using muse.
