@github-actions github-actions released this 04 Aug 00:25
  • Support for gun:// has been removed for the time being due to lack of usage and that GUN itself works best as a JS API within web apps and didn't have obvious ways to map to URLs within a browser
  • js-ipfs-fetch got updated with support for doing a GET to download data as CAR files or RAW blocks using the ?format query string. You can also upload a CAR file using POST ipfs://localhost/ {Content-Type: application/vnd.ipld.car}.
  • go-ipfs got updated to 0.14 which should enable hole punching by default for better connectivity between home networks.
  • hypercore-fetch got updated to fix a bug where using reponse.arrayBuffer() would yield junk data.
