Package Exports

@freddieridell/hyperpipe

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@freddieridell/hyperpipe) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

HyperPipe

Uses hyperswarm to share stdin and stdout between two peers

Why

Simple very quick way to share info between two computers
Secret only someone with access to the key can connect to the pipe
Ephemeral once a connection is closed, there's no way to recover the data that was sent through it

Usage

On computer 1

$ echo "This is my spooky secret, tell no one" | hyperpipe 75489961d69a855463d67951fe72af37bd7add7fbe71ccfbd8bf17974ad26afd

On computer 2

$ hyperpipe 75489961d69a855463d67951fe72af37bd7add7fbe71ccfbd8bf17974ad26afd > spookySecret.txt

Notes

if you provide no key, hyperpipe will create one for you
hyperpipe prints information about the connection to stderr, so please only pipe from stdout
hyperpipe currently only supports 2 peers connected to a key at a time, it's up to you to enforce this

Roadmap

allow n peers to be connected to a key at once
add --verbose flag to print more info to stderr
add --tee flag to pipe everything that goes to stdout to stderr as well
add --porcelan flag to produce more machine readable meta output to stderr
