history
Project history and usage
Storj Uplink CLI is the command-line client for Storj object storage. It gives package-manager users a native `uplink` binary for setting up access, managing buckets, and copying or sharing objects on the Storj network.
Project history
The Storj repository describes Storj v3 as a distributed cloud storage network and S3-compatible platform whose files are encrypted, split into pieces, and stored across a distributed network. The Uplink CLI docs present `uplink` as the command-line application for accessing Object Storage.
Adoption history
The official docs organize Uplink as a full CLI API with install, setup, access, import, copy, list, bucket, metadata, move, remove, and share commands. The supplied package metadata shows Homebrew, Nix, and Windows winget packaging, reflecting the need for a cross-platform storage client.
How it is used
`uplink setup` creates a config file, imports an API key or access grant, records the satellite address, and asks for an encryption passphrase. The command set then covers bucket creation, object upload/download, listing, metadata, removal, and restricted sharing.
Why package nerds care
Storj Uplink is significant because decentralized object storage still needs boring packageable client tooling. Package users care about it as the reproducible, scriptable bridge between shell workflows and Storj's access-grant and client-side-encryption model.
Timeline
- 2019: Storj wiki history shows Uplink CLI documentation updates during v3-era development.
- Current: Storj docs publish Uplink CLI as the native CLI tool for Storj Object Storage.
- 2026: GitHub repository page shows ongoing Storj v3 development and hundreds of releases.
Related projects
- The Storj repository links the Uplink library and S3 Gateway documentation as adjacent developer and compatibility surfaces. The CLI docs also connect Uplink access grants with bucket and object commands.
