Ownership

Only owners can execute administrative functions including setSchema, setRules, addIndex, removeIndex, addCron, removeCron, setAlgorithms, evolve, setCanEvolve, addOwner, and removeOwner.

Set Initial Owners​

To initially set owners with deployment, add owner field to the initial state. owner can be a single address or an array of addresses.

let initialState = {
  "canEvolve": true,
  "evolve": null,
  "secure": true,
  "version": "0.7.0",
  "data": {},
  "nonces": {},
  "ids": {},
  "indexes": {},
  "auth":{
    "algorithms": ["secp256k1", "secp256k1-2", "ed25519", "rsa256", "poseidon"],
    "name": "weavedb",
    "version": "1",
    "links": {}
  },
  "crons": {
    "lastExecuted": 0,
    "crons":{}
  },
  "contracts":{}
}

// single owner
initialState.owner = walletAddress

// or multiple owners
initialState.owner = [walletAddress1, walletAddress2]

With yarn deploy command, you can specify a wallet name with --wallet argument.

For example, save your wallet JSON file at scripts/.wallets/wallet-my_wallet.json first.

yarn deploy --wallet my_wallet

The wallet file location defaults to scripts/.wallets/wallet-mainnet.json if unspecified.

yarn deploy # same as "yarn deploy --wallet mainnet"

Get Owner​

await db.getOwner()

Add Owner​

Owners can be added one at a time.

await db.addOwner(new_owner_address, { ar: current_owner_arweave_wallet })

Remove Owner​

Owners can be removed one at a time. If you remove the last owner, the database won't be configuable anymore, getting into permanent decentralization mode.

await db.removeOwner(owner_address, { ar: current_owner_arweave_wallet })
