Documentation can be found at aioipfs-api.readthedocs.org.

Installation

pip install aioipfs-api

Usage

This assumes you have a working familiarity with asyncio.

import asyncio
from aioipfs_api.client import Client

async def main():
    async with Client() as client:
        # print the readme
        async with client.cat("QmYwAPJzv5CZsnA625s3Xf2nemtYgPpHdWEz79ojWnPbdG/readme") as f:
            print(await f.text())

        # add a directory
        print(await client.add('/some/dir/path'))

loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.run_until_complete(main())

Logging

This library uses the standard Python logging library. To see debut output printed to STDOUT, for instance, use:

import logging

log = logging.getLogger('aioipfs_api')
log.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
log.addHandler(logging.StreamHandler())

Running Tests

To run tests:

pip install -r dev-requirements.txt
python -m unittest
