arkb

Arweave Deploy that saves you data costs.

Features

• No file size limit.
• No amount of files limit.
• No fees
• Doesn't charge you or redeploy files that you have previously deployed to Arweave
  • Note: Simply creates a new alias to that same file for you.

How to use

arkb runs using NodeJS and NPM. You must have both installed on your machine for it to work.

First put an arweave.json file in the root of the repo. Do not commit this.

Then put the files you want to upload in the upload folder and delete the .gitignore so it is not uploaded to arweave.

Finally:

# install packages
yarn
# deploy files 
yarn start

Follow the promps and you're done!

Note: If you are planning to upload large batches of data transactions to the Arweave network, it is strongly advised that you use the --use-bundler option instead of regular deploy to avoid transaction failures. You can read about bundles and their advantages on the Arwiki.
