IPFS HTTP client in Rust

ipfs-api

Rust library for connecting to the IPFS HTTP API using tokio.

Usage

[dependencies]
ipfs-api = "0.5.0-alpha1"

Examples

Write a file to IPFS:

#
use hyper::rt::Future;
use ipfs_api::IpfsClient;
use std::io::Cursor;

let client = IpfsClient::default();
let data = Cursor::new("Hello World!");

let req = client
    .add(data)
    .map(|res| {
        println!("{}", res.hash);
    })
    .map_err(|e| eprintln!("{}", e));

hyper::rt::run(req);

Read a file from IPFS:

#
use futures::{Future, Stream};
use ipfs_api::IpfsClient;
use std::io::{self, Write};

let client = IpfsClient::default();

let req = client
    .get("/test/file.json")
    .concat2()
    .map(|res| {
        let out = io::stdout();
        let mut out = out.lock();

        out.write_all(&res).unwrap();
    })
    .map_err(|e| eprintln!("{}", e));

hyper::rt::run(req);

There are also a bunch of examples included in the project, which I used for testing

You can run any of the examples with cargo:

$ cargo run -p ipfs-api --example add_file
