A agreement among trusted parties to assist with persistance of IPFS objects.
$ git clone https://github.com/pipermerriam/ipfs-persistence-consortium.git
cd
into the newly cloned repository
You can do this with pip. Recommended to do this in a virtual environment
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
Setup a config.json
in the root directory of the project that looks like the
following.
{
"peers": [
"QmP24Zx4uEh1ZhmPsERb4ZwBDVdXjHiFqRSkHyqeSJQEsW"
]
}
The peers
key needs to be an array of IPFS ids.
$ python ipfs_consortium.py
This will loop through all of the peers and pin their files locally. This
script can be setup to run periodically with something like cron
.
peers
list, the script uses ipfs name resolve
to
find the ipfs address that has been published from that peer.Create a directory to contain your IPFS manifest JSON files.
$ mkdir ~/ipfs-manifests
In this directory, create any number of *.json
files. These files should contain a single top level array of IPFS file hashes.
// manifest1.json

"QmTrXyK24CAymWj5eATjxrisc8QaJocnGSY11BFFDEvqtH"
]
Add this file into IPFS
$ ipfs add -r ipfs-manifests
added QmPSM44WZ6rFW7d81pMQYG7BzDJRjhrWh7s69dTUpgmtRY ipfs-manifests/manifest-1.json
added QmbsC66VNjNdBU8simUfmxj2dUdpyWgkJKRiVBxBE9sBXQ ipfs-manifests
Take the hash associated with the ~/ipfs-manifests
directory and publish it
on IPNS
$ ipfs name publish QmbsC66VNjNdBU8simUfmxj2dUdpyWgkJKRiVBxBE9sBXQ
Published to QmP24Zx4uEh1ZhmPsERb4ZwBDVdXjHiFqRSkHyqeSJQEsW: QmbsC66VNjNdBU8simUfmxj2dUdpyWgkJKRiVBxBE9sBXQ
Give other members your IPFS id and ask them to add it to their peers
