AddFileAsync() not adding file to webui #54

Closed sanjay-ipfs closed 5 years ago

sanjay-ipfs commented 5 years ago

I'm using the AddFileAsync() function to add files to IPFS. But it is adding file to the local ipfs but not to webui (I guess not adding to MFS). I tried to view the the added file in http://127.0.0.1:5001/webui files list, but not added. Can you help me out in this...

You are correct, AddFileAsync() will add the block(s) to the local IPFS node. The node then adds a FindProvider record to the DHT, which other nodes can then use to find the block.

Which daemon are you running go, js or cs?

I'm using the go daemon and cs-http-api

You are correct, AddFileAsync() will add the block(s) to the local IPFS node. The node then adds a FindProvider record to the DHT, which other nodes can then use to find the block.

So, how can I add the files, so that I can view them in webui?

At the top of each page in WebUI, there is a QmHash box. Enter the CID of your file and press Explore.
