feat: expose Buffer on the dist version #523
Closed
Description
According to the API spec, you're supposed to pass a node Buffer
, a node Readable
stream, or an object containing one of those to the ipfs.files.add
method. However, this project advertises the ability to use the implementation by including a <script>
tag:
<script src="https://unpkg.com/ipfs/dist/index.min.js"></script>
If you do include that tag, you get a global Ipfs
object, and you can indeed start up a node and go online. But since in the global namespace there is no Buffer
or Readable
stream implementation, what are you supposed to pass to ipfs.files.add
? It would seem to be requiring types that can't be created outside it's fancy webpack module that hides all the node globals.
