This is more to the point and will also allow the use of apicid.Hash as keys is JSON objects.

First pass, need to read go-ipfs side first to get the idea behind some of this more.

api sounds a bit weird here, I'd probably just move this into cidenc

It may sound weird but that is the exact idea I want to capture. This package present a form of the Cid to use in the API struct. The only reason it is here is because this type might need to be used outside of go-ipfs.

Outdated

ipld is a valid prefix too. I also think that FromPath should be somehow integrated into CoreAPI or somewhere like that like that as having this package depend on go-path is going to hurt us eventually

The idea here is extract the CID from a string which can either be just a Cid or a ipld path. I was not aware that ipld can be used but will fix that. I am not super happy with the go-path dependency either. I am open to other ways to do this.

Doing this the way described in ipfs/kubo#5789 (review) should remove the need for this method

Also note that the FromPath function doesn't strictly need to be here. It can be moved back into go-ipfs as only code in go-ipfs uses it for now.

Also remove other now unused code.

Note: This p.r is superseded by #10 but it has a lot of useful code in it that might still be useful to get in. I am closing but please don't delete the branch. |
