    I last looked at ipfs about a year ago
    they floated the filecoin
    I guess that is rising

    I don't know much about FileCoin, but I love working with IPFS and the community.

    I searched on matrix in gitter and got back some results but none were ipfs related. Do you have a link?

    Uh the only way I know how to link is with: #ipfs:matrix.org

    But I don't know what that looks like on your end.

    takes me here

    Oh weird, it's a different Matrix room. The link I posted is a permalink for the Matrix room. The other room is bridged with IRC

    your link gave me an option to use an app or browser, then it took me to the element.io site
    some guy wants to stream videos to ipfs

    Yeah the Element client is what I'm using for Matrix
    The most activity you'll see is on the go-ipfs Github, and the Matrix/IRC room AFAIK.

    tbh ipfs was not widely adopted for a long time. Now we have btc at 50k etc we have a new interest in ipfs and all these older architectures

    files = {

    'Description': desc
    }
    nftipfs = requests.post('https://ipfs.infura.io:5001/api/v0/add', files=files)
    p = nftipfs
    ##nfthash = p['Hash']
    print(p)
    return render(request, 'nftdetails.html', {'NFTdesc': desc, 'NFTname': name})
    error it gives me is ...

    Hello ipfs-newbie here I have a question in regards to working with blocks:
    If I save some data and later retrieve it via the cid, what decoder must i use to decode the data to then parse it as json?
    const block = Block.encoder({ "this": "is an object" }, "dag-cbor");
    const data = block.encode();
    const cid = await block.cid();
    await ipfs.block.put(data, { cid: cid.toString() });
    
    ...
    
    const block = await ipfs.block.get(cid.toString());
    const data = new TextDecoder().decode(block.data);  // Decoding with the default format of utf-8 leads to results that can't be parsed with JSON.parse

    anyone know how i can deal with this "Lock already being held for file"
    ?

    @saapo-ka-baadshah
    Hey @coinpoppa_twitter , this means there's some sort of critical section is being run by the process secured by some sort of improvised Mutex.
    So you can always close the process running the critical section.
    Try running ipfs shutdown
    This will close the running ipfs service node and hence clearing the critical section

    Is there any need or benefit to running a private ipfs swarm/cluster over wireguard?

    Hey Everyone,

    I am facing some major issues while setting up a private ipfs network on a bunch or raspberry pis,

    • I have changed the apis, and gateway to 0.0.0.0
    • I also added the bootstrap node (one of the raspberry pi is a bootstrap node)
    • I have a local dns server for local network server process resolutions

    No matter what I try, the peer table is empty.

    An urgent help would be appreciated!

    Make sure you set the bootnode correctly on the other nodes. I can send you an example config if needed

    There seems to be a problem with running ipfs packages with other node js packages. In particular, any ipfs package (ipfs-core, ipfs-http-api) is throwing the following error:

    Error [ERR_PACKAGE_PATH_NOT_EXPORTED]: No "exports" main defined in /path/to/project/core/node_modules/ipfs-core/package.json

    I found a discussion about a possible solution on github https://github.com/ipfs/js-ipfs/issues/4125#issuecomment-1146754121 but changing the "module" from "commonjs" to "esnext" opens up a bunch of other problems (in particular, I'm trying to run this within Hardhat and the Hardhat devs have stated there is no ES support on their short term roadmap.

    There must be a way to get Hardhat and IPFS to work together but I've hit a roadblock and am unsure how to solve. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem.

    Hi. What is the best practice for publishing IPNS content from more than one IPFS node? I want to have redundancy so that if one node fails, other can do it. It seems that the only way is to export/import keys manually. there is a API call for export/import keys but it seems not to work. Is there a way to programmatically create/share keys ?

    ipfs/kubo#4240 : "If you'd like to implement ipfs key import/export, go ahead. We'll just have to restrict export to only running on the local node and not over the API"

    Why not over the API?
