Hello @threespeak Community Members & Hive Community Members,

With this post, I'll share the development updates & items on which I (@sagarkothari88) was working. Accidentally, OBS decided to pick a different audio device & due to which no audio was captured. You can find updates as follows.

## Setting Up Acela-core

- Acela-Core is a new backend core for decentralized video applications on HIVE.
- It supports both off-chain & on-chain data.
- I (@sagarkothari88) checked it out locally & resolved all the issues he faced.

### Setting up .env & resolving related issues

- To run, you need some of the configs.
- After coordinating with the team, I got the necessary env variables.
- Even after that, I faced some errors due to missing env variables.
- After turning off cluster-related services, I was able to move forward.

### TUSd uploader

- At first, I was unaware & I was running the TUSd instance independently.
- After knowing there was a script already for it, I closed that instance & ran on my own.
- https://github.com/spknetwork/acela-core/blob/main/runTusd.sh
- With that, I had running the TUSd uploader locally

### TUSd Hooks

- Even after running it, It kept throwing errors.
- I created a `data` folder locally & updated `runTusd.sh` as follows.
- It resolved TUSd issues.
- As you can see here, I changed `upload-dir` from `/data` to `./data`

```shell

tusd -upload-dir=./data/ \
     -base-path="/files" \
     -host="127.0.0.1" \
     -port="1080" \
     -behind-proxy \
     --hooks-enabled-events pre-create,post-create,post-finish,post-finish,post-terminate,post-receive \
     -max-size 5000000000 \
     -hooks-http http://localhost:4569/api/v1/upload/tus-callback
```

### Other errors

- I also encountered IPFS Cluster issues.
- Those I managed to resolve by coordinating with the teI also encountered some compilation errors & got them fixed locally.
- After all of these, I was all set.

## Learning NestJS

- Acela core is written using the NestJS Framework.
- It's been over a year & I have not learned about NestJS.
- I found a playlist on YouTube to learn NestJS.
- I completed approximately 18 videos from [that playlist](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqLR2H326bY6eRNOXJxWQkvKNlzmJQfLj).
- After 18 videos, I started contributing to the Acela-core project.

## Acela-Core - Posting Authority before logging in

![Checking for Posting Authority](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sagarkothari88/23t7AyTgukHsGVuz4pQbhrGPJwha5vWcqTkQWjove53QaTgLE8QGRG9xSaBCyRo9BrCEV.png)

- https://github.com/spknetwork/acela-core/pull/8/files.
- Granting JWT Token only if posting authority is found.
- This JWT Token will be used for upvotes, comments, and posts.
- Without posting authority, all of the operations may fail.
- So, it's best to check at the time of login /login_singleton
- It would be the front-end's responsibility to get posting authority first.
- After that front-ends can generate proof & proof of payload & - execute/login_singleton for logging in.

## Acela-Core - Max 5 GB Upload

![File Size](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/sagarkothari88/23t7BGkMDtPvJZLgRjMs5yzmWPZYY7fTaeM3qp8bQvipbZQ4RtNg82uxtEYRUBnPZbzq6.png)

- We need to ensure that file size is no bigger than 5 GB.
- https://github.com/spknetwork/acela-core/pull/9.
- In `src/services/uploader/uploading.service.ts,` I added an extra check & it then shows an error if the file size is too big.

## New FrontEnd - Video Format

- This will be the third check we'll add to the upload process.
- It makes sure that users are uploading videos in the right format.
- With this, we wish to improve the upload experience.
- This work is in progress.

## Exchanging GQL queries

- Juneroy & I exchanged several GraphQL queries.
- With this, he could implement it on New 3Speak FrontEnd.
- Shared Queries for the following:
    - Subscribed feed
    - Trending feed
    - New feed
    - First upload
    - Community Feed
    - Tags Feed
