ipfs-search.com

Search engine for the Interplanetary Filesystem. Sniffs the DHT gossip and indexes file and directory hashes.

Metadata and contents are extracted using ipfs-tika, searching is done using ElasticSearch 7, queueing is done using RabbitMQ. The crawler is implemented in Go, the API and frontend are built using Node.js.

The ipfs-search command consists of two components: the crawler and the sniffer. The sniffer extracts hashes from the gossip between nodes. The crawler extracts data from the hashes and indexes them.

Docs

Documentation is hosted on Read the Docs, based on files contained in the docs folder. In addition, there's extensive Go docs for the internal API as well as SwaggerHub OpenAPI documentation for the REST API.

Roadmap

For discussing and suggesting features, look at the issues.

Dependencies

• Elasticsearch 7.x
• RabbitMQ / AMQP server
• NodeJS 9.x
• IPFS 0.7

Building

$ go get ./...
$ make

Running

Docker

The most convenient way to run the crawler is through Docker. Simply run:

docker-compose up

This will start the crawler, the sniffer and all its dependencies. Hashes can also be queued for crawling manually by running ipfs-search a <hash> from within the running container. For example:

docker-compose exec ipfs-crawler ipfs-search add QmS4ustL54uo8FzR9455qaxZwuMiUhyvMcX9Ba8nUH4uVv

Ansible deployment

Automated deployment can be done on any (virtual) Ubuntu 16.04 machine. The full production stack is automated and can be found in it's own repository.
