@ -71,3 +71,21 @@ Implementing this might not be as conceptually nice as making S3 a separate
backend. It would need some changes to the remotes code, perhaps lifting
some of it into backend-specific hooks. Then the S3 backend could be
implicitly stacked in front of a backend like WORM.
---
Maybe the right way to look at this is that a list of Stores
should be a property of the Backend. Backend.File is a Backend, that
uses various Stores, which can be of different types (the local
git repo, remote git repos, S3, etc). Backend.URL is a backend that uses
other Stores (the local git repo, and the web).
Operations on Stores are:
* uuid -- each store has a unique uuid value
* cost -- each store has a use cost value
* getConfig -- attempts to look up values (uuid, possibly cost)
* copyToStore -- store a file's contents to a key
* copyFromStore -- retrieve a key's contents to a file
* removeFromStore -- removes a key's contents from the store
* hasKey -- checks if the key's content is available
