Hello @threespeak Community Members & Hive Community Members,
With this post, I'll share the development updates & items on which I (@sagarkothari88) was working. Accidentally, OBS decided to pick a different audio device & due to which no audio was captured. You can find updates as follows.
Setting Up Acela-core
- Acela-Core is a new backend core for decentralized video applications on HIVE.
- It supports both off-chain & on-chain data.
- I (@sagarkothari88) checked it out locally & resolved all the issues he faced.
Setting up .env & resolving related issues
- To run, you need some of the configs.
- After coordinating with the team, I got the necessary env variables.
- Even after that, I faced some errors due to missing env variables.
- After turning off cluster-related services, I was able to move forward.
TUSd uploader
- At first, I was unaware & I was running the TUSd instance independently.
- After knowing there was a script already for it, I closed that instance & ran on my own.
- https://github.com/spknetwork/acela-core/blob/main/runTusd.sh
- With that, I had running the TUSd uploader locally
TUSd Hooks
- Even after running it, It kept throwing errors.
- I created a
datafolder locally & updatedrunTusd.shas follows. - It resolved TUSd issues.
- As you can see here, I changed
upload-dirfrom/datato./data
tusd -upload-dir=./data/ \
-base-path="/files" \
-host="127.0.0.1" \
-port="1080" \
-behind-proxy \
--hooks-enabled-events pre-create,post-create,post-finish,post-finish,post-terminate,post-receive \
-max-size 5000000000 \
-hooks-http http://localhost:4569/api/v1/upload/tus-callback
Other errors
- I also encountered IPFS Cluster issues.
- Those I managed to resolve by coordinating with the teI also encountered some compilation errors & got them fixed locally.
- After all of these, I was all set.
Learning NestJS
- Acela core is written using the NestJS Framework.
- It's been over a year & I have not learned about NestJS.
- I found a playlist on YouTube to learn NestJS.
- I completed approximately 18 videos from that playlist.
- After 18 videos, I started contributing to the Acela-core project.
Acela-Core - Posting Authority before logging in
- https://github.com/spknetwork/acela-core/pull/8/files.
- Granting JWT Token only if posting authority is found.
- This JWT Token will be used for upvotes, comments, and posts.
- Without posting authority, all of the operations may fail.
- So, it's best to check at the time of login /login_singleton
- It would be the front-end's responsibility to get posting authority first.
- After that front-ends can generate proof & proof of payload & - execute/login_singleton for logging in.
Acela-Core - Max 5 GB Upload
- We need to ensure that file size is no bigger than 5 GB.
- https://github.com/spknetwork/acela-core/pull/9.
- In
src/services/uploader/uploading.service.ts,I added an extra check & it then shows an error if the file size is too big.
New FrontEnd - Video Format
- This will be the third check we'll add to the upload process.
- It makes sure that users are uploading videos in the right format.
- With this, we wish to improve the upload experience.
- This work is in progress.
Exchanging GQL queries
- Juneroy & I exchanged several GraphQL queries.
- With this, he could implement it on New 3Speak FrontEnd.
- Shared Queries for the following:
- Subscribed feed
- Trending feed
- New feed
- First upload
- Community Feed
- Tags Feed
What are the next tasks?
- Acela-Core - Fix Upvote API.
- Acela-Core -
create-uploadAPI failing. - 3Speak Legacy Studio - Add posting authority using Active Key, which is not working.
- 3Speak Legacy Studio - Connect the account using Active Key, which is not working.
- 3Speak Legacy FrontEnd - 3Speak Twitter handle.
- 3Speak Legacy FrontEnd - Update Twitter Icon.
- New tasks will be assigned based on daily stand-ups.

Hi @sagarkothari88
Sorry, mate. I know your busy.
I've asked a couple of times but no joy. How do we download vids from Three Speak now, please? I have a few I'd like to edit and use but the download option is either gone or moved?
Thanks!
