ocean-lib 2.0.0a7

🐳 Ocean protocol library.

ocean.py

Python library to privately & securely publish, exchange, and consume data.

With ocean.py, you can:

• Publish data services: downloadable files or compute-to-data. Create an ERC721 data NFT for each service, and ERC20 datatoken for access (1.0 datatokens to access).
• Sell datatokens via for a fixed price. Sell data NFTs.
• Transfer data NFTs & datatokens to another owner, and all other ERC721 & ERC20 actions using web3.py or Brownie.

ocean.py is part of the Ocean Protocol toolset.

This is in beta state. If you run into problems, please open up a new issue.

🏄 Quickstart

Follow these steps in sequence to ramp into Ocean.

1. Install Ocean
2. Set up locally
3. Walk through main flow (local setup): publish asset, post for free / for sale, dispense it / buy it, and consume it

Now let's do remote flows:

4. Set up remotely
5. Walk through main flow (remote setup). Like step 3, but on wholly remote network
6. Walk through C2D flow - tokenize & monetize AI algorithm via Compute-to-Data

Use-case flows

• Predict-eth - data challenges with prize $$ to predict future ETH price
• Data Farming - curate data assets, earn rewards
• Search & filter data - find assets by tag
• Key-value database - use data NFTs to store arbitrary key-value pairs on-chain, following ERC725
• Profile NFTs - enable "login with Web3" where Dapp can access private user profile data

More types of data assets

Each of the following shows how to publish & consume a particular type of data.

• REST API - Example on Binance ETH price feed
• GraphQL - Example on Ocean Data NFTs
• On-chain data - Example on Ocean swap fees.

• Understand config parameters - envvars vs files
• Learn about off-chain services - Ocean Provider for data services, Aquarius metadata store
