Helia for node.js setup

Helia IPFS node with relay implementation. Unlike Kubo(most popular IPFS implementation in GO), Helia depends on js-libp2p and support webRTC that allows Helia browser nodes create connection with each other(browser-to-browser).

Preparation

Create static peerId node src/genPeerId.js, as result you get peer.json with perrId keys.

Run

docker-compose up

Usage in browser

• Include Helia(node.js) in bootstrap list for libp2p instance used for Helia: /dns4/acidpictures.ink/tcp/4444/wss/p2p/12D3KooWE3yj6jibgZcxMb6hrpQGKRE9xaqAazFkYaJZDZengzHq
• Use libp2p methods to connect it on fly: heliaNode.libp2p!.dial(multiaddr(heliaReleayerAddress))

Hosting

Caddy generate self-signed certificates automatically, to use your own copy it to /certs directory, and update Caddyfile from tls to tls /etc/caddy/certs/acidpictures_ink_chain.crt /etc/caddy/certs/acidpictures_ink.key
