There's a lot to grasp with Perkeep. I suggest installing Perkeep on your local machine and putting it through some personal usage before considering it for your website.
What advantages do you feel Perkeep would bring over your current method of serving your files? Would this advantage be worth the time? It's best to access your files over the API. I would use the pk-mount tool to mount the files to disk, but then that would get you back to where you started. To get a feel for the API, try the web interface which Perkeep ships with. Files you add to Perkeep are immutable, so you already get some read-only functionality in that sense. -- John On Thu, Mar 28, 2019 at 9:45 PM Tristan Kohl <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hey guys, > > I was wondering if it would be possible to use Perkeep as some sort of a > storage backend for my website.
