Scuttlebutt Guide

Looking to learn how to build in Scuttlebutt? There's currently no canonical resource, but here's a map of the known archipelago!

Have you found an Uncharted Isle? We'd love to hear about it.

Documentation

scuttlebot

• scuttlebot.io - has great details about sbot and ssb-client (and other modules)
• ssbc.github.io - a predecessor to scuttlebutt.io, much of the same content, has some other tutorials

scuttlebutt stack

• scuttlebutt-protocol-guide - (ssb | github) learn about the protocol with beautiful diagrams
• scuttlebutt modules - a great overview of modules organised by domain / stack-position

pull-streams

• pull-stream.github.io - a guide to the pull-stream ecosystem (scuttlebut uses pull-streams extensively)
• github.com/pull-stream/pull-stream-faq - a simple FAQ

Tutorials

Videos

Intro to Node

• video + repo (ssb | github) - a rough intro to node

Intro to Scuttlebutt

• ssb-client - repo + video (ssb | github), learn how to connect to your databaseand do some streaming queries!
• flumedb - repo + video (ssb | github), an intro to the database under scuttlebutt, about how to construct some views (reduced versions of the database) for powerful lookups!
• scuttlebot plugins - repo ~~+ video~~ (ssb | github) plug your flumeview into scuttlebot (I figured our what went wrong at the end of the flumedb video!)

Intro to Mutant

• Part 1 - video, introduces observeables with Value, and when. Make a part of the page toggle dynamically
• Part 2 - video, introduces computed which takes in multiple observeables and makes a new observeable, and Struct (kind a like an observeable object with pre-defined keys). I focus a bit of refactoring and moving code around to give you an idea of what's possible.

Mutant is a client side reactive library which is all about mutating the DOM. It's used by Patchwork, Patchbay, Ticktack (and the underlying lib Patchcore).

Written

github.com/don-smith/ssb-tutorial - a command line intro that uses docker to spin up several sbots and get them talking to each other. github.com/kgibb8/scuttletron - an electron app with integrated scuttlebot server for quickstart application development.

Code snippets

scuttlebot.io - lots of code snippets, some background

• post a message
• watch for new messages
• publish a blob | read a blob (blobs are files / attachments)
• many others

ssbc.github.io/scuttlebot/ - (see HowTo Guides down side) more detail, but an odler reference

• post a message (includes examples of mentioning, channels etc.)
• update your profile
• example of mentioning blobs in a post
• set up a Pub Server manually (an old guide)
