Background

BenPager is a benOS utility for accessing memory through buffers.

Installation

With NPM

npm install benpager

With YARN

yarn add global benpager

Usage

var benPager = require('benpager')

var benPages = benPager(1024) // allows only 1kb for each page

var benPage = benPages.get(7) //retreive the 7th page

console.log(benPage.offset) // 10240 (From 2nd line)
console.log(benPage.buffer) // a 1kb buffer that spits out blank.

API

var benPages = benPager(benPageSize)

Create a new page. benPageSize defaults to 1024 (KB).

var benPage = benPages.get(benPageNumber, [noAllocate])

Get a page. The benPage you are pulling will get alloc (Allocated), immediately.

Optionally you can set the noAllocate flag which will make the method return undefined if a benPage has not been allocated already.

A benPage looks like this:

{
  offset: byteOffset,
  buffer: bufferWithPageSize
}

benPages.set(benPageNumber, buffer)

Explicitly set the buffer for a benPage.

benPages.updated(benPage)

Mark a benPage as updated.

benPages.lastUpdate()

Get the last benPage that was updated.

var buf = benPages.toBuffer()

Concat all allocated benPages into one buffer.

Why The Internet Must Have A Decentralized Alternative

Today, the internet is more censored than ever and it's only getting worse. Our mission with the dWeb Protocol was to create a truly powerful P2P protocol, around benOS, dBrowser and many of benOS' underlying libraries to bring the most powerful P2P products to life. In the last few months, by rebuilding P2P technologies that have existed since the early 2000s, we have built a powerful suite of decentralized libraries for benOS and the Bench Network, that will only improve over time. But we also brought new ideas to life, like:

• dDrive
• dExplorer
• dDatabase
• dSites
• dPack
• benFS
• DCDN
• Rocketainer
• RocketOS
• dNames
• P2PDNS
• dWebFS
• dWebDB
• MeteorIDE
• Kepler
• Neutron
• Designate
• Nova

and more! These were the protocols and libraries that we needed to create a completely decentralized operating system, where everything was distributed, protected and people were once again in control of their data. benOS is made up of over 1100+ different libraries that we are releasing on a day-by-day basis as we move them to a stable/production state. While financial support is great for this open source project, we need developers who want to be some of the first to build the dApps and dSites of the future. We have to take back what our forefathers originally designed for freedom, by making our code the law, instead of releasing weak and highly centralized applications where law cannot be applied because the code lacks the foundation to implement a legal framework for itself. Join us for a truly historic journey on the BenchLabs Telegram. See you there.
