LBRY

LBRY is an open-source protocol providing distribution, discovery, and purchase of digital content (data) via a decentralized network.

This repo is a reference implementation of the LBRY API.

It provides a daemon that can interact with the network via a json-rpc interface over HTTP.

Installing

Note: This project no longer bundles a graphic interface (browser). If you want to use LBRY via a GUI, use the LBRY App.

Our releases page contains pre-built binaries of the latest release, pre-releases, and past releases, for macOS, Debian-based Linux, and Windows.

Installing from source is also relatively painless, full instructions are in INSTALL.md

Running

Run lbrynet-daemon to launch the daemon.

Using

By default, lbrynet-daemon will provide a JSON-RPC server at http://localhost:5279. It is easy to interact with via cURL or sane programming languages.

Our quickstart guide provides a simple walkthrough and examples for learning.

The full API is documented here.

What is LBRY?

LBRY is a protocol that provides a fully decentralized network for the discovery, distribution, and payment of data.

It utilizes the LBRY blockchain as a global namespace and database of digital content. Blockchain entries contain searchable content metadata, identities, and rights and access rules.

LBRY also provides a data network consists of peers uploading and downloading data from other peers, possibly in exchange for payments, and a distributed hash table, used by peers to discover other peers.
