Yahoo!! I was expecting your App for long. I have just installed it. Added a file to my new storage. All seems OK.

I used "nextcloud" as FolderName

What would be the "ipfs get" command to read the file from CLI?

zicmama commented 4 years ago

Cannot find any filenames in pin ressources

for link in $(ipfs pin ls | awk '{print $1}'); do ipfs ls $link; done

ipfs files ls /nextcloud ipfs files stat /nextcloud/filename hope this helps.

Thanks, I can get file hash in 'stat'. I wonder how "ipfs files" makes files visible and shared with other ipfs nodes?

As far as I've understood the same way all other files work. It just adds a layer above that, that allows for location based access to files like in other filesystems.
