go-ipfs floodsub1 requires ipfs daemon flag #110

Closed jbenet closed 7 years ago

jbenet commented 7 years ago

@whyrusleeping asked me to say that: go-ipfs now (floodsub1) requires launching ipfs daemon with a flag to enable pubsub, like this:

ipfs daemon --enable-pubsub-experiment

I looked and https://github.com/ipfs/js-ipfsd-ctl didn't let you add flags, so i wrote https://github.com/ipfs/js-ipfsd-ctl/pull/107 to add flags. You should now be able to do:

node = new ipfsdctl()
node.init(...)
node.startDaemon(['--enable-pubsub-experiment'], cb)

That PR also fixes some bugs in ipfsd-ctl, so it may work better now. It will report errors better if it fails to boot up the ipfs node (which previously were totally silent failures)

Excellent! I'll pull that in. Thanks for adding the gatewayAddr also :+1:

Fixed in branch pubsub.
