ipfs-unixfs

Goals

• blockstore API independent way to traverse the merkledag
  • the core read API does not deal with loading blocks
  • instead access to interesting Cids is given

Status

• unfiltered walking of known unixfs trees
• creation of balanced file trees
• creation of non HAMT-sharded directory trees

lib.rs:

ipfs-unixfs: UnixFs tree support in Rust.

The crate aims to provide a blockstore implementation independent of the UnixFs implementation by working on slices and not doing any IO operations.

The main entry point for extracting information and/or data out of UnixFs trees is ipfs_unixfs::walk::Walker. To resolve IpfsPath segments over dag-pb nodes, ipfs_unixfs::resolve should be used.
