You can already do this, but it's undocumented. All you need to do add the ethpm
parameter to your truffle.js
config file. Something like this:
module.exports = {
// ...
ethpm: {
ipfs_host: "ipfs.infura.io",
ipfs_protocol: "https",
registry: "0x8011df4830b4f696cd81393997e5371b93338878",
install_provider_uri: "https://ropsten.infura.io/truffle"
},
// ...
};
The original default values are configured here:
https://github.com/trufflesuite/truffle-config/blob/master/index.js#L34
You may need to make a copy of the whole configuration item, i.e., the whole ethpm
object, rather than just changing ethpm.ipfs_host
.
Cheers!
I recently ran into a problem where IPFS files were no longer available. https://github.com/trufflesuite/truffle/issues/396
At the recommendation of another user, the topic came up of automatically storing any packages being used or published on a local IPFS node to ensure availability.
I am an IPFS noob, so I am not sure if this is something that is already available. If not, it would probably be a good integration option.
