@webnet/taildrive

Taildrive peer discovery, WebDAV client helpers, and a server-side bridge, built on @webnet/webdav.

Taildrive exposes a WebDAV endpoint (/v0/drive) over each Tailscale node's peerapi. On the client side, listDrivePeersWithShares lists an IpnClient's Taildrive peers (via IPN.listDrivePeers) and probes each one over WebDAV, filtering out peers that are unreachable or export no shares; createTaildriveClient returns a @webnet/webdav DAVClient for a given peer, dialing through the IPN's dial/dialTLS methods rather than a real network socket. On the server side, bridgeDriveHandler adapts a @webnet/http Handler into the RawDriveHandler shape IPN.serveDrive expects, translating between the wasm bridge's request/response objects and @webnet/http's Context.

Entry points

Entry point	Description
@webnet/taildrive	Re-exports both ./client and ./server.
@webnet/taildrive/client	createTaildriveClient, listDrivePeersWithShares.
@webnet/taildrive/server	bridgeDriveHandler.

Usage

import { listDrivePeersWithShares, createTaildriveClient } from "@webnet/taildrive/client"
import type { IpnClient } from "@webnet/tsconnect"

async function browsePeerShares(ipn: IpnClient) {
  const peers = await listDrivePeersWithShares(ipn)
  for (const peer of peers) {
    const client = createTaildriveClient(ipn, peer)
    const { entries } = await client.statAndReaddir("/")
    console.log(
      peer.name,
      entries.map((e) => e.path),
    )
  }
}

import { bridgeDriveHandler } from "@webnet/taildrive/server"
import type { IpnClient } from "@webnet/tsconnect"
import type { Handler } from "@webnet/http/server"

function serveTaildrive(ipn: IpnClient, davHandler: Handler) {
  ipn.serveDrive(bridgeDriveHandler(davHandler))
}
