A redux bundle to create an IPFS instance and pass it as an extraArg to other store methods.

See https://reduxbundler.com for more info on the wonders of redux bundles.

Uses window.ipfs-fallback to find the best IPFS instance available. This will window.ipfs if you have IPFS Companion installed, or a js-ipfs-api instance otherwise.

Add ipfs-redux-bundle to your store

bundles/index.js

import { composeBundles } from 'redux-bundler'
import ipfsBundle from 'ipfs-redux-bundle'
// ... import other bundles

export default composeBundles(
  ipfsBundle()
  // ... add bundles here
)

In your app, you can now connect up the doInitIpfs function. Here we init IPFS when our root component mounts:

App.js

import React, { Component } from 'react'
import { connect } from 'redux-bundler-react'

export class App extends Component {
  componentDidMount () {
    this.props.doInitIpfs()
  }
  render () {
    // ipfs-css powered gorgeous ui here.
  }
}

export default connect(
  'doInitIpfs',
  App
)

Adds the following methods to the redux store

• boolean - Is the IPFS instance ready to use yet?

• boolean - Did the IPFS instance fail to start?

• Object - The last resolved value of ipfs.id()

• string - The API address of the IPFS instance.

• Create a new IPFS instance. This will window.ipfs if you have IPFS Companion installed, or a js-ipfs-api instance otherwise.

• Updates the API Address to address.
