best explanation i've found is from @clehner: %9yC1XNJJtNiJVCMGchCO7iRKB6xMUrDaCfLUeFPTk3o=.sha256

example config:

generate random values in node repl

randomValue = require('crypto').randomBytes(32).toString('base64')

then copy them into ~/.ssb/config

"caps": {
  "sign": randomValue1,
  "shs": randomValue2
}

I am confused, which one is network key? And what is the second one? There seems to be only one secret key in the protocol-guide..

ygrek commented 5 years ago

hm, looking at https://github.com/ssbc/ssb-config/blob/master/defaults.js#L53 sign is null and shs is the network key

Is this still relevant? If so, what is blocking it? Is there anything you can do to help move it forward?
