A daemon that connects to the Chlu network and pins all IPFS data, making sure it stays available after other nodes go offline.
This module is not on NPM yet, so it has to be installed by cloning the repo and running npm install <folder>
You can install the module globally and use chlu-collector start
to run it.
If you want to run it on a custom network, use chlu-collector start --network <custom>
, otherwise it runs on the experimental
network (used in development) by default.
The only other network in use is the staging
network, used by our official demo at demo.chlu.io
The Chlu Module is exported by default, so you when you use require('chlu-collector')
that is what you get.
To see how it is integrated into ChluIPFS, check out the src/bin.js
file.
You can start the with chlu-collector start --offline
. Other apps using ChluIPFS on the same
machine should detect the service node in offline mode and enter offline mode as well, making sure all of your Chlu
apps on your machine will talk to each other even if you are completely disconnected.
