Distribution¶

Comprehensive distribution system for Anya Extensions providing secure, reliable, and efficient delivery of Bitcoin, Web5, and ML extensions across multiple channels and platforms.

Overview¶

The Anya Extensions distribution system ensures that high-quality extensions reach users efficiently while maintaining security, integrity, and compatibility across different deployment environments. Our multi-tier distribution approach supports various user needs from individual developers to enterprise deployments.

Access Patterns¶

// Example registry client usage
use anya_extensions::registry::{Registry, RegistryConfig};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let config = RegistryConfig {
        primary_url: "https://registry.anya-extensions.org".to_string(),
        mirrors: vec![
            "https://mirror1.anya-extensions.org".to_string(),
            "https://mirror2.anya-extensions.org".to_string(),
        ],
        cache_dir: Some("/tmp/anya-cache".to_string()),
        verify_signatures: true,
    };

    let registry = Registry::new(config).await?;

    // Search for Bitcoin extensions
    let bitcoin_extensions = registry
        .search("bitcoin")
        .category("core")
        .min_rating(4.0)
        .execute()
        .await?;

    for extension in bitcoin_extensions {
        println!("Found: {} v{}", extension.name, extension.version);
    }

    Ok(())
}
