Storing encoding metadata about hyperdrive files #372

@josephmturner

Description

@josephmturner

It would be useful to have either a specified or de facto standard location to store hyperdrive file encodings.

hypercore-fetch and hypercore-fetch-ushin store timestamp data inside entry.value.metadata.mtime. It would similarly be useful to store encoding metadata inside entry.value.metadata:

{
  encoding: "utf-8" // or "iso-8859-1", "big5", etc.
}

Do you know of any hypercore applications that already store encoding data somehow?
