There are a few ways to run an IPFS node in order to query the IPFS Network for the files you are looking for.
- Install IPFS which requires installing Go if not already installed. Instructions are simple don't worry :) (Note: carefully read the instructions, choose arm for M1 Silicon Macbooks for example)
- Initialize IPFS
- In a separate terminal tab run
ipfs daemon
- Swarm Connect to dClimate IPFS node by running
ipfs swarm connect /ip4/45.55.32.80/tcp/4001/ipfs/12D3KooWG7itEPAHut3xsVo7CwyD8sKeQXKgQizotNhPsToCssXQ
in a different tab from where you ranipfs daemon
- Test IPNS name resolution of hashes living on the dClimate Node by running
ipfs name resolve k2k4r8nyvzboy94mj0eebx9e4ux8qbwoej4q7d6wz1jwagx4rjk76kmw
, you should get/ipfs/bafyreie7n7z4xd6go645fbrmyzrdrnaypx6ky4r4iekieyjzlmvo2aqgzm
back - Within your python script or python notebook ensure to select the appropriate IP address (localhost) depending on where the script is running. If running the python script locally connect via 127.0.0.1 and so on.
