# Blossom nostr integration
Blossom uses nostr for public / private key identities. Users are expected to sign "Client Authentication" events to prove their identity when uploading or deleting blobs
## User Server Discovery
Users can publish a kind `10063` event with a list of `r` tags indicating where other users should look to find their published blobs
### Example
```json
{
"kind": 10063,
"content": "",
"tags": [
["r", "https://cdn.self.hosted"],
["r", "https://cdn.satellite.earth"]
],
"created_at": 1708454797,
"id": "...",
"sig": "..."
}

# 🌸 Blossom
Blobs stored simply on mediaservers
## What is it?
Blossom is a spec of http endpoints for storing blobs on publicly accessible servers
## How dose it work?
Blobs are packs of binary data addressed by their sha256 hash
Blossom Servers expose four endpoints for managing blobs
- `GET /<sha256>` (optional file `.ext`)
- `PUT /upload`
- `GET /list`
- `DELETE /<sha256>`
## Blob Descriptor
A blob descriptor is a JSON object containing `url`, `sha256`, `size`, `type`, and `created` fields
- `url` A public facing url this blob can retrieved from
- `sha256` The sha256 hash of the blob
- `size` The size of the blob in bytes
- `type` (optional) The MIME type of the blob
- `created` The unix timestamp of when the blob was uploaded to the server
Servers may include additional fields in the descriptor like `magnet`, `infohash`, or `ipfs` depending on other protocols they support
## Nostr Identities
Blossom uses nostr public / private keys for identities. Users are expected to sign "Client Authentication" events to prove their identity when uploading or deleting blobs
## Server Implementation
See [Server](./Server.md)
## Client Implementation
Example Implementation: [blossom-client](https://github.com/hzrd149/blossom-client) (TypeScript)
