Using client = aioipfs.AsyncIPFS(maddr='/ip4/10.0.1.4/tcp/5001/https') and using /api/v0/add from https://docs.ipfs.tech/reference/kubo/rpc/#api-v0-add

Some explanation:

Storage on CCNs is pretty limited
If we upload Docker images (0.5 GB), we spam the storage and it doesn't get garbage collected
Pinning this data to IPFS saves us this hassle
