Web3 Weekend :: Basic Data Wallet UI

[hebbianloop]

Basic Data Wallet UI for Dataset Management.

The Basic Data wallet is an application that allows a user to upload a file in a standard specification (BIDS), verify the file specification metadata, set sharing permissions, and peer-to-peer upload/share. Data can be shared and unshared at any time. Individual DIDs can be added to share data in individual data sharing spaces (like a group text). As a basic first step, sharing is accomplished by revealing the ipfs hash to legal DIDs.

Single-User Actions

1. web3 wallet login
   User prompted with log-in, must log in with metamask. Upon login, user is presented with UI with sidebar showing public, private, and shared data (empty by default). The dataset metadata is the default view. User may browse through version history and network information tabs for each dataset.
2. upload file
   User can drag file into UI to add to their data wallet. A version-controlled dataset is initialized with datalad when file is dropped in app.
3. file parsing & validation
   A validation script runs to read the metadata from the dataset. The content is added + validation info committed into version history with datalad. Permissions may be set. If set to share or public, a remote ipfs/infura/texibleDB node is initialized.
4. sign dataset
   User signs data after finalizing permissions. Metadata, version history, and repository/dataset remote information and metadata are stored on-chain.
5. deploy to IPFS
   Users choose when to publish data after adding to the wallet and verifying the contents. Infura gateway used to publish data securely. Dataset availability is confirmed, on-chain data is queried and updated to reflect dataset availability.

Working Elements

• Drag and drop file box
  -- check file extension
  -- run bids validation on bids json
  ---> https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-validator
  -- create new datalad dataset (local)
  -- add file to new datalad dataset (local)
  -- commit file status (local; bids-validation output: warnings/info)
• Sidebar Dataset Browser
  each side bar element filters datasets by permissions
  -- private
  -- public
  ---> download public data (can choose to pin)
  -- space shared with me
  unique space for each unique group, like group chat
• Dataset Metadata Tab
  each selected dataset has metadata tab (default view)
  -- name, size, owner, permissions, schema (bids),
• History tab
  git log --graph --pretty=format:'' --abbrev-commit
  each selected dataset has history tab
  -- datalad version history for each dataset / file
• Network Info tab
  git annex info
  each selected dataset has network info tab
  -- list of datasets/git remotes
  -- ipfs CID
  -- no. copies
• Actions Panel
  -- Publish
  -- Delete
  -- Pin (keep copy for seeding)
  -- Manage Permissions
• Profile/Account with Web3 Login
  -- metamask
  -- address resolve to ENS
• Set/Change Permissions & Sign
  public/private/shared-list
  -- read onchain permissions
  -- search names by ENS
  -- check existing permissions for modification privelleges
  -- publish to ipfs/remote
  -- write new onchain permission
• Publish to IPFS & Sign
  -- configure dataset remote
  git annex ipfs) https://git-annex.branchable.com/special_remotes/ipfs/
  other remotes) https://git-annex.branchable.com/special_remotes/
  -- create bucket
  -- create folder
  -- push dataset to remote
  -- check remote and write metadata to chain

Reach Goals / Next Steps:

• Encryption
