# I put this script together given the unavailability of any "official" way to install IPFS from a script
# Alternatives include "ipfs-update" which is written in GO, and installs from source, but depends on GO >= 1.9 which means it fails on Raspberry Pis
# Or getting from the web page at 'https://dist.ipfs.io/#ipfs-update' but that isn't easy to automate since the links are version specific
# and currently there is no "latest" link.
# See https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/issues/5998

# Choice of strategy - if none uncommented it will use the best strategy, usually "update"
#STRATEGY="binary" # Go direct to the Go binary
#STRATEGY="update" # Get the binary of ipfs-update and use that to fetch ipfs - this is generally best, and essential if IPFS already installed
#STRATEGY="source" # This will be needed if the binaries arent available for your platform, but GO is.


# Hard coded latest version since "lastest" isn't supported (yet)

# The startup script sets configuration the first time IPFS is run, which we also use in our Docker installs of dweb-gateway
# On dweb-mirror its in dweb-mirror, in dweb its in /app/ but either way should be in PWD
# Note IPFS_STARTSCRIPT uses (but has reasonable defaults) for: IPFS_USER; IPFS_API_PORT; IPFS_GATEWAY_PORT; IPFS_SWAM_PORT; IPFS_WS_PORT

Install IPFS, there are several strategies in install_ipfs.sh that should at least cover your Mac,
but it might need editing if you have an odd combinations.
```
cd ~/node_modules/@internetarchive/dweb-mirror
./install_ipfs.sh
```
Now start the daemon, first time it initializes and configures a repo
```
start_ipfs daemon  &
```
If it complains that 8080 is in use, then you missed editing start_ipfs and can fix this with
```
ipfs config Addresses.Gateway /ip4/0.0.0.0/tcp/8081
start_ipfs daemon &
```
Allow ipfs to start, once it says Daemon is ready, Ctrl-C out of it
