Important

This demo is no longer maintained and the repository is archived.

It was a proof of concept and stayed one. It is pinned to ipfs-http-client 50, which is deprecated in favour of Helia, so treat the code as a reference rather than a starting point.

The repository can be unarchived, but only for a named maintainer who commits to keeping it up. If that is you, reach out to the IPFS Foundation. Forking is fine too.

IPFS ID and Public Key example

Simple demo app that connects to API port of IPFS node, reads its PeerID and displays it as QR code.

Note: ⚠️ this is just a PoC, not meant for production use. Due to the way browser security model works, this example requires CORS safelisting via API.HTTPHeaders.Access-Control-Allow-Origin

Demo: https://bafybeib77af5a2ymrhl2etf4hq2x32o7qs3shkaatznyjxrhnipksjkh4i.ipfs.dweb.link (needs to be appended to API.HTTPHeaders.Access-Control-Allow-Origin)

Install

1. This requires the user to have an IPFS node running with the app Origin added to API.HTTPHeaders.Access-Control-Allow-Origin
2. Install dependencies npm install
3. Build the app npm run build
4. Start the app npm start
