do you want to upgrade CI, or should I downgrade?

I think this is ready to go

@faddat Thank you for your interest in contributing to this project. Unfortunately, this is not currently the direction we want to go with ipget. We would prefer that a library, that wraps the ability to connect to a local or remote node or create a temporary node to fetch data from IPFS, exists as a separate project/repo.

I would recommend reusing your work here to create a project that does just that. At some point in the future, such a library may be used to replace the functionality inside ipget, making ipget a CLI utility built on top of that library. Or maybe ipget is eventually replaced by a cmd within that library repo.

Again, thank you, but I am closing this PR for the reason stated above.

Very fair, I was just thinking about the same thing.

Here's what I am thinking:
