Peering Examples

Hello and thanks for your fantastic work on fero - Still trying to get around the correct peering options from the test examples - Would you have an example handy for using it in a scenario with remote peers/networks or feeding from DHT discovery, or anything with a fixed set of peers?

Need more thorough examples in the docs

I'm having a hard time trying to figure out how to use Fero on my own.

For example, I'm trying to build a simple distributed user login system:

// server1.js
const fero = require('fero')

const users = []

const register = req => {
  users.push(req.value)
  return [200, 'ok']
}

const login = req => {
  const { user, password } = req.value

  if (users.find(u => user === u.user && password === u.password )) {
    return [200, 'ok']
  }

  return [401, 'not authorized']
}

async function bs () {
  const users = await fero('users', async req =>
      req.type == 'LOGIN'    ? login(req)
    : req.type == 'REGISTER' ? register(req)
                             : [405, 'method not allowed'])

  users.on('change')
    .map(({ key, value }) => console.log(key, value))
}

bs()
  .then(() => console.log('ready 1'))

// server2.js
const fero = require('fero')

async function bs () {
  const users = await fero('users')

  console.log('PEERS:', users.peers)

  const data = await users.peers.send({
    type: 'REGISTER',
    key: 'foo',
    value: {
      user: 'foo',
      password: '1234'
    }
  })

  console.log('DATA:', data)
}

bs()
  .then(() => console.log('ready 2'))
