Provide a way of reserving one or more shoulders for "offline" content #5

Open mjordan opened 2 years ago

mjordan commented 2 years ago

We will want to be able to use paths on non-publicly accessible storage, or offline storage, as "where" values. These ARKs should not be visible publicly. Probably the best way to enact logic to not show the metadata or to resolve for these ARKs is to reserve one or more shoulders for them.

The existing "private_shoulders" config option can already handle this use case.

Closing.

The main use case for private shoulders is to support offline content. larkm should check to see if a target starts with http and if so attempt to resolve the request. If the target does not start with http, the resource's info should be returned instead (i.e., larkm's response should be the same as if ?info was requested).

The whole private shoulders functionality is not necessary at this time. I'm going to tag the issue_5 branch and remove that functionality from main until we have a use case for private shoulders.
