sokoweb 0.1.29

Sokoweb package

SokoWeb – DHT-Based Commerce Network

A distributed commerce network using Kademlia DHT for peer-to-peer product/service listings, search, and discovery.

Quick Start

pip install sokoweb==0.1.21
sokoweb-up
or sokoweb-up -d (detached mode)

You'll be prompted for:

• NODE_PORT (default: 8000)
• NODE_TCP_PORT (default: 8500)
• ADVERTISE_IP (default: localhost)

Note: Use public IP/domain to join network. Localhost works for exploration but won't connect. Tunneling services like Ngrok typically won't work as network requires UDP and TCP access.

Requirements

• Python 3.9+
• Docker 27.3.1+
• docker compose 2.29.7+

Upload Product Image

curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/products/{product_id}/image \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <your_token>" \
  -F "image=@/path/to/image.jpg"

Retrieve Products

By ID

curl http://localhost:8000/products/{product_id} \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <your_token>"

Search by category/shop

curl "http://localhost:8000/products?category=Electronics&shop_name=Tech%20Store" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <your_token>"

Search by location (within radius)

curl "http://localhost:8000/products?latitude=-1.2921&longitude=36.8219&radius_km=10" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <your_token>"

Combined search

curl "http://localhost:8000/products?category=Electronics&latitude=-1.2921&longitude=36.8219&radius_km=5" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <your_token>"

Retrieve Product Images

1. Retrieve Single Image

Use this to get the first (or only) associated image of a product:

curl "http://localhost:8000/products/{product_id}/image" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <your_token>"

• Returns the raw bytes of the image (e.g., "image/png" if PNG)
• You can save/open it directly as an image file if you use a tool like curl with "-o" or Postman's "Save Response"

2. Retrieve All Images (Multi-Image ZIP)

Use this to get all images for a product in a single ZIP file:

curl "http://localhost:8000/products/{product_id}/images" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <your_token>" \
  --output images_{product_id}.zip

• Responds with a ZIP file (the beginning bytes are "PK", indicating a .zip)
• If you simply view the response as text, you'll see nonsense characters (binary contents). Instead, save it to disk (e.g., --output in curl) and then open with any ZIP program. You'll find all images included in that archive

Credits Management

Check Balance

curl http://localhost:8000/credits/balance \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <your_token>"

Purchase Credits

curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/credits/purchase \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <your_token>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "amount": 100,
    "phone_number": "[phone]"
  }'

Category Operations

# Suggest a new category (only works in production)
curl -X POST http://<your-public-ip>:8000/categories/suggest \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <your_token>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "category_name": "Smart Home"
  }'

# Retrieve all categories
curl http://localhost:8000/categories \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <your_token>"

Note: Substitute localhost with your Public IP in production. The same applies for port, if it's different in your case.
