ipfs setup

ipfs.md

maybe helpful to run this as sudo... some resources found here: https://gist.github.com/claus/1287f47b5fbaaea338ac8a04d02bf258

This is what I use to start up the daemon & bootstrap its cluster (with nohup and writing the PID to command line and to a /tmp file

#!/usr/bin/env bash

# ~/.ipfs/ipfs-cluster-startup.sh
# (do not bootstrap the bootstrapper!)
# chmod a+x this script!

cluster_secret=$1
bootstrap=$2
nohup ipfs daemon &> /dev/null & disown
pid=$!
echo $pid > /tmp/ipfs.pid
echo "ipfs daemon started\n/tmp/ipfs.pid ${pid}"
if [ ! -f ~/.ipfs-cluster/service.json ]; then
    # doing it this way cuz apparently without ipfs running cluster can't init, 
    # but the docs aren't clear on this. Would prefer to have it in the setup script
    ipfs-cluster-service init -s ${cluster_secret}
fi
nohup ipfs-cluster-service --bootstrap "${bootstrap}" -f &> /dev/null & disown
pid=$!
echo $pid > /tmp/ipfs-cluster.pid
echo "ipfs-cluster started\n/tmp/ipfs-cluster.pid ${pid}"
