If you previously integrated BlindCast using the individual packages (@blindcast/crypto, @blindcast/keys, @blindcast/storage, @blindcast/player), this page maps your existing code to the new tools.

Package → deliverable mapping

Old packageNew toolWhat changed
@blindcast/playerPlayerNo code changes. Same createPlayer() API. Docs moved from /packages/player to /player/overview.
@blindcast/storage (Node.js)CLIServer-side encryption and upload is now handled by blindcast encrypt and blindcast upload. No need to write Node.js scripts.
@blindcast/storage (browser)UploaderBrowser-side upload is now a single upload() function in @blindcast/uploader. Handles key fetch, encryption, presign, and manifest rewrite internally.
@blindcast/keys (Express)Key Server DockerRun docker run blindcast/keyserver instead of writing Express setup code. Auth, CORS, and leases are configured via env vars.
@blindcast/keys (Worker)WorkersSame createWorkerKeyServer API. No changes needed for existing Worker deployments.
@blindcast/crypto(internal)No longer a direct dependency. Used internally by the CLI, Uploader, and Player.

Do I need to change my code?

If you use @blindcast/player: No changes. The package and API are the same. Only the docs location moved. If you use @blindcast/storage in Node.js scripts: Consider switching to the CLI for simpler workflows. Your existing code still works — @blindcast/storage is not deprecated — but the CLI handles encryption, upload, and manifest rewriting in one command. If you use @blindcast/storage in the browser: Consider switching to @blindcast/uploader for a simpler API. Your existing createUploader + createBrowserTransport code still works. If you run your own Express key server: Consider switching to the Docker image for less boilerplate. Your existing Express code still works — @blindcast/keys/express is not deprecated. If you use createWorkerKeyServer: No changes needed. The Worker API is unchanged.

The packages are not deprecated

All existing packages (@blindcast/crypto, @blindcast/keys, @blindcast/storage, @blindcast/player) continue to work and receive updates. The new tools (CLI, Uploader, Key Server Docker) are built on top of them. The documentation now focuses on the higher-level tools because they cover the most common workflows with less code. If you need lower-level control, the packages are still available.
