Swarm Sites

Swarm sites is an http server for serving swarm websites and SPAs requested via regular DNS by non .eth domains. It works like Github Pages but for Swarm.

NOTE! SwarmSite is in beta.

Usage

To link your regular domain to Swarm you need to add two DNS Records into DNS configuration file or management panel:

1. Add A record to map requests to SwarmSites IP:

   @ 3600 IN A 159.65.169.224
   

2. Add TXT record to match hostname with BZZ resource:

   @ IN TXT swarm=2018:pre bzz=a7ffc6f8bf1ed76651c14756a061d662f580ff4de43b49fa82d80a4b80f8434a type=website
   

Record description:

• swarm=2018:pre – record version 2018:pre.
• bzz=... - swarm BZZ address
• type=website - optional specifies resource type. Currently website is default and the only supported value.

Install

Install via git:

git clone https://github.com/rumkin/swarm-sites
cd swarm-sites
npm i .
node cli.js start

To run swarm sites with nginx and systemd there is two files with example configuration:

var/swarm-sites.nginx
var/swarm-sites.systemd
