libIPFS

A C-style library library that wraps around go-ipfs as a library(not an executable that is embedded) and provides a very simple API.

Example

#include "libipfs-linux.h"
#include <iostream>

int main() {
    /* Starts the IPFS node */
    std::cout << IPFSStartNode("./") << std::endl;
    /* Resolve an IPNS name */
    std::cout << ResolveIPNSName("/ipns/ipfs.io") << std::endl;
    /* Stop IPFS Node */
    std::cout << IPFSStopNode() << std::endl;
}

Overview

libIPFS is used by the Scala Network Project to retrieve and publish critical information on to IPFS.

It runs a barebones IPFS instance and provides functions to be called from C/C++.

Why?

Currently, no simple implementation or API exists for IPFS in C or C++. Instead of writing, or re-writing, large parts of IPFS in C or C++ we rather use Go and compile it to a C or C++ compatible library. IPFS is implemented in Go already.

Building

Requirements

• go >= 1.16
• make >= 4.2.1
• gcc and g++ >= 9.3.0

To build the library you can use the following commands, the outputs can be found in bin/

go mod download
make build

You need an actual mac to build mac binaries, run:

make build build_macos_x64 or build_macos_arm64
