Features

  • Make a directory
  • List all directories/files in a directory/subdirectory
  • File status

Usage

  IpfsClient ipfsClient = IpfsClient();

OR

  IpfsClient ipfsClient = IpfsClient(url: "http://127.0.0.1:5001");
  // default is http://127.0.0.1:5001 so you don't need to pass url in case you are working on localhost

If your app uses Basic Authorization then,

  IpfsClient ipfsClient =
      IpfsClient(url: "YOUR_SERVER_URL", authorizationToken: "YOUR_TOKEN");

How to make a directory in IPFS

  var response = await ipfsClient.mkdir(dir: 'myfolder');

Get list of directories/files in a directory/subdirectory in the local mutable namespace.

  var response = await ipfsClient.ls(dir: 'myfolder');

If you dont pass any folder it will return all files and directories of root directory.

How to Write to a file

    var response = await ipfsClient.write(
      dir: 'myfolder/sample.png',
