Java-IPFS-Client v1.0

Standalone IPFS client written in Java

With this tool you can run a whole IPFS node just by one click, and upload files and folders easily.

Is this another IPFS API for Java?

No, this is a standalone client that runs an IPFS node, avoiding commands or scripts, for lazy or unskilled people

But you can connect the java-ipfs-api to this node in order to do some hacks

Download & Installation

You can download it here: https://github.com/RHazDev/Java-IPFS-Client/releases

Windows

Just download the .exe and run it

Linux, MacOS, Freebsd

Download the .jar and run it

If it does not work create a script with the command "java -jar filename.jar" and run it

Usage

Once the program started, you can right click the window in order to:

• Upload a single file, not embeded in a directory

• Upload a directory

For both actions, an IPFS hash is returned.

You can then access your file or directory by going to:

http://127.0.0.1:8080/ipfs/<the-hash>

I recommend you to install IPFS-Companion, a browser extension that simplifies access to IPFS files

You can toggle the IPFS node by clicking the "toggle" button.
