web3://ocweb.eth

web3://ocweb.eth (HTTPS gateway link) is a web3:// website which lets you mint OCWebsites.

web3:// protocol

In short, web3:// is like https://, but websites are smart contracts, and the blockchain is the server. This is standardized by several Ethereum ERCs. Learn more with the presentation website and documentation website. Try live with the web3:// sandbox. Download the native EVM Browser or learn about the HTTPS gateways.

OCWebsites

OCWebsites are web3:// websites prepackaged with a plugin system (themes, features, ...), a versioning system and an admin interface. They appear as NFTs in your wallet.

They are useful for both :

• Developers: ability to upload a frontend (via admin or CLI) to your OCWebsite, manage multiple versions (switch live version), create and add your own plugins
• Non-developers : Use the admin interface to configure themes, add and publish pages (at the moment, only one theme available)

ocweb CLI

ocweb is a CLI tool to interact with OCWebsites. Install it with npm i ocweb

ocweb [options] <command>

Commands:
  mint <chainId> <subdomain>  Mint a new OCWebsite on a blockchain
  list <chainId>              List the OCWebsites owned by the wallet
  upload [arguments..]        Upload a static frontend to the website. Require the Static Frontend plugin installed.
  ls [folder]                 List the files in the static frontend
  rm <files..>                Remove a file from the static frontend

OCWebsite versioning

New OCWebsites comes with an initial version. You can create a new version anytime, which will duplicate another version. Each version is totally independant, including the installed plugin list and their configuration.

• You can change the version being the live version served by your OCWebsite.
• You can enable a viewer for non-live versions, in order to preview them, and/or to make available a historical version.
• You can lock a version, which becomes immutable.

OCWebsite plugins

Several plugins come pre-installed with a newly minted OCWebsite.

Develop your own OCWebsite plugin

A plugin must implement the IVersionableWebsitePlugin interface.

The "Theme About Me" plugin is an example of standalone plugin providing a theme, and an admin panel loaded in the OCWebsite admin interface.
