ipfs

Inter Planetary File System. A peer-to-peer hypermedia protocol. Aims to make the web more open. More information: https://docs.ipfs.tech/reference/kubo/cli/.

• Add a file from local to the filesystem, pin it and print the relative hash:

ipfs add {{path/to/file}}

• Add a directory and its files recursively from local to the filesystem and print the relative hash:

ipfs add {{[-r|--recursive]}} {{path/to/directory}}

• Save a remote file and give it a name but not pin it:

ipfs get {{hash}} {{[-o|--output]}} {{path/to/file}}

• Pin a remote file locally:

ipfs pin add {{hash}}

• Display pinned files:

ipfs pin ls

• Unpin a file from the local storage:

ipfs pin rm {{hash}}

• Remove unpinned files from local storage:

ipfs repo gc
