HTTP Stow Implementation

Location = endpoint

Container =

Item =

e.g.: https://mydomain.com//

Dev Notes

The init function of every implementation of stow must call stow.Register.

stow.Register accepts a few things:

Kind, a string argument respresenting the name of the location.

makefn a function that accepts any type that conforms to the stow.Config interface. It first validates the values of the Config argument, and then attempts to use the configuration to create a new client. If successful, An instance of a data type that conforms to the stow.Location interface is created. This Location should have fields that contain the client and configuration.

Further calls in the hierarchy of a Location, Container, and Item depend on the values of the configuration + the client to send and receive information.

• kingmatchfn a function that ensures that a given URL matches the Kind of the type of storage.

---

*stow.Register(kind string, makefn func(Config) (Locaion, error), kindmatchfn func(url.URL) bool)

• Adds kind and makefn into a map that contains a list of locations.

• Adds kind to a slice that contains all of the different kinds.

• Adds kind as part of an anonymous function which validates the scheme of the url.URL

Once the stow.Register function is completed, a location of the given kind is returned.
