nip_core

Welcome to nip_core, the nip backing library! Go here for documentation.

lib.rs:

nip_core is a library that lets you interact with nip repositories programmatically.

extern crate failure;
extern crate git2;
extern crate ipfs_api;
extern crate nip_core;

use failure::Error;
use git2::Repository;
use ipfs_api::IpfsClient;
use nip_core::{NIPIndex, NIPRemote};

// Open the local repository
let mut repo = Repository::open_from_env()?;

// Get a handle for IPFS API
let mut ipfs = IpfsClient::default();

// Instantiate a brand new nip index
let mut idx = NIPIndex::from_nip_remote(&NIPRemote::NewIPFS, &mut ipfs)?;

// Upload the full object tree behind a specified local ref to IPFS
idx.push_ref_from_str("refs/heads/master", "refs/heads/master", false, &mut repo, &mut ipfs)?;

// Also upload the brand new index itself
let nip_remote: NIPRemote = idx.ipfs_add(&mut ipfs, None)?;

println!("Success! refs/heads/master uploaded to remote {}", nip_remote.to_string());
