I finished writing out the basic blob database and structure types. The blob was a structure like

type Blob struct {
	ID          string
	Header      *Header
	ContentType string
	Contents    []byte
}

I decided to make it an io.Reader to make it better handle large files; rather than load them entirely into memory, we can do a straight buffer.

type Blob struct {
	ID          string
	Header      *Header
	ContentType string
	r           io.Reader
}
