# Command-line

IPFS can run in either online or offline mode. Online mode is when you have IPFS running separately as a daemon process. If you do not have an IPFS daemon running, you are in offline mode. Some commands, like ipfs swarm peers, are only supported when online. The command-line quickstart guide explains how to start the IPFS daemon and take your node online.

# Alignment with HTTP API

Every command usable from the CLI is also available through the HTTP API. For example:

> ipfs swarm peers
/ip4/104.131.131.82/tcp/4001/p2p/QmaCpDMGvV2BGHeYERUEnRQAwe3N8SzbUtfsmvsqQLuvuJ

DESCRIPTION

  Adds contents of <path> to ipfs. Use -r to add directories.
  Note that directories are added recursively, to form the ipfs
  MerkleDAG.
  
  If the daemon is not running, it will just add locally.
  If the daemon is started later, it will be advertised after a few
  seconds when the reprovider runs.
  
  The wrap option, '-w', wraps the file (or files, if using the
  recursive option) in a directory. This directory contains only
  the files which have been added, and means that the file retains
  its filename. For example:
  
    > ipfs add example.jpg
    added QmbFMke1KXqnYyBBWxB74N4c5SBnJMVAiMNRcGu6x1AwQH example.jpg
    > ipfs add example.jpg -w
    added QmbFMke1KXqnYyBBWxB74N4c5SBnJMVAiMNRcGu6x1AwQH example.jpg
    added QmaG4FuMqEBnQNn3C8XJ5bpW8kLs7zq2ZXgHptJHbKDDVx
  
  You can now refer to the added file in a gateway, like so:
  
    /ipfs/QmaG4FuMqEBnQNn3C8XJ5bpW8kLs7zq2ZXgHptJHbKDDVx/example.jpg
  
  The chunker option, '-s', specifies the chunking strategy that dictates
  how to break files into blocks. Blocks with same content can
  be deduplicated. Different chunking strategies will produce different
  hashes for the same file. The default is a fixed block size of
  256 * 1024 bytes, 'size-262144'. Alternatively, you can use the
  Buzhash or Rabin fingerprint chunker for content defined chunking by
  specifying buzhash or rabin-[min]-[avg]-[max] (where min/avg/max refer
  to the desired chunk sizes in bytes), e.g. 'rabin-262144-524288-1048576'.
  
  The following examples use very small byte sizes to demonstrate the
  properties of the different chunkers on a small file. You'll likely
  want to use a 1024 times larger chunk sizes for most files.
  
    > ipfs add --chunker=size-2048 ipfs-logo.svg
    added QmafrLBfzRLV4XSH1XcaMMeaXEUhDJjmtDfsYU95TrWG87 ipfs-logo.svg
    > ipfs add --chunker=rabin-512-1024-2048 ipfs-logo.svg
    added Qmf1hDN65tR55Ubh2RN1FPxr69xq3giVBz1KApsresY8Gn ipfs-logo.svg
  
  You can now check what blocks have been created by:
  
    > ipfs object links QmafrLBfzRLV4XSH1XcaMMeaXEUhDJjmtDfsYU95TrWG87
    QmY6yj1GsermExDXoosVE3aSPxdMNYr6aKuw3nA8LoWPRS 2059
    Qmf7ZQeSxq2fJVJbCmgTrLLVN9tDR9Wy5k75DxQKuz5Gyt 1195
    > ipfs object links Qmf1hDN65tR55Ubh2RN1FPxr69xq3giVBz1KApsresY8Gn
    QmY6yj1GsermExDXoosVE3aSPxdMNYr6aKuw3nA8LoWPRS 2059
    QmerURi9k4XzKCaaPbsK6BL5pMEjF7PGphjDvkkjDtsVf3 868
    QmQB28iwSriSUSMqG2nXDTLtdPHgWb4rebBrU7Q1j4vxPv 338
  
  Finally, a note on hash determinism. While not guaranteed, adding the same
  file/directory with the same flags will almost always result in the same output
  hash. However, almost all of the flags provided by this command (other than pin,
  only-hash, and progress/status related flags) will change the final hash.

SYNOPSIS
  ipfs config edit

DESCRIPTION

  To use 'ipfs config edit', you must have the $EDITOR environment
  variable set to your preferred text editor.


# ipfs config profile

USAGE
  ipfs config profile - Apply profiles to config.

SYNOPSIS
  ipfs config profile

DESCRIPTION

  Available profiles:
    'server':
      Disables local host discovery, recommended when
      running IPFS on machines with public IPv4 addresses.
    'local-discovery':
      Sets default values to fields affected by the server
      profile, enables discovery in local networks.
    'test':
      Reduces external interference of IPFS daemon, this
      is useful when using the daemon in test environments.
    'flatfs':
      Configures the node to use the flatfs datastore.
      
      This is the most battle-tested and reliable datastore, but it's significantly
      slower than the badger datastore. You should use this datastore if:
      
      * You need a very simple and very reliable datastore and you trust your
        filesystem. This datastore stores each block as a separate file in the
        underlying filesystem so it's unlikely to loose data unless there's an issue
        with the underlying file system.
      * You need to run garbage collection on a small (<= 10GiB) datastore. The
        default datastore, badger, can leave several gigabytes of data behind when
        garbage collecting.
      * You're concerned about memory usage. In its default configuration, badger can
        use up to several gigabytes of memory.
      
      This profile may only be applied when first initializing the node.
      
    'default-networking':
      Restores default network settings.
      Inverse profile of the test profile.
    'default-datastore':
      Configures the node to use the default datastore (flatfs).
      
      Read the "flatfs" profile description for more information on this datastore.
      
      This profile may only be applied when first initializing the node.
      
    'badgerds':
      Configures the node to use the badger datastore.
      
      This is the fastest datastore. Use this datastore if performance, especially
      when adding many gigabytes of files, is critical. However:
      
      * This datastore will not properly reclaim space when your datastore is
        smaller than several gigabytes. If you run IPFS with '--enable-gc' (you have
        enabled block-level garbage collection), you plan on storing very little data in
        your IPFS node, and disk usage is more critical than performance, consider using
        flatfs.
      * This datastore uses up to several gigabytes of memory. 
      
      This profile may only be applied when first initializing the node.
    'lowpower':
      Reduces daemon overhead on the system. May affect node
      functionality - performance of content discovery and data
      fetching may be degraded.
      
    'randomports':
      Use a random port number for swarm.

SUBCOMMANDS
  ipfs config profile apply <profile> - Apply profile to config.

  For more information about each command, use:
  'ipfs config profile <subcmd> --help'

# ipfs config profile apply

USAGE
  ipfs config profile apply <profile> - Apply profile to config.

  <profile> - The profile to apply to the config.

OPTIONS

  --dry-run  bool - print difference between the current config and the config
                    that would be generated.


# ipfs config replace

USAGE
  ipfs config replace <file> - Replace the config with <file>.

SYNOPSIS
  ipfs config replace [--] <file>

ARGUMENTS

  <file> - The file to use as the new config.

DESCRIPTION

  Make sure to back up the config file first if necessary, as this operation
  can't be undone.


# ipfs config show

USAGE
  ipfs config show - Output config file contents.

SYNOPSIS
  ipfs config show

  --enable-mplex-experiment       bool   - DEPRECATED.

DESCRIPTION

  The daemon will start listening on ports on the network, which are
  documented in (and can be modified through) 'ipfs config Addresses'.
  For example, to change the 'Gateway' port:
  
    ipfs config Addresses.Gateway /ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/8082
  
  The API address can be changed the same way:
  
    ipfs config Addresses.API /ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/5002
  
  Make sure to restart the daemon after changing addresses.
  
  By default, the gateway is only accessible locally. To expose it to
  other computers in the network, use 0.0.0.0 as the ip address:
  
    ipfs config Addresses.Gateway /ip4/0.0.0.0/tcp/8080
  
  Be careful if you expose the API. It is a security risk, as anyone could
  control your node remotely. If you need to control the node remotely,
  make sure to protect the port as you would other services or database
  (firewall, authenticated proxy, etc).
  
  HTTP Headers
  
  ipfs supports passing arbitrary headers to the API and Gateway. You can
  do this by setting headers on the API.HTTPHeaders and Gateway.HTTPHeaders
  keys:
  
    ipfs config --json API.HTTPHeaders.X-Special-Header "[\"so special :)\"]"
    ipfs config --json Gateway.HTTPHeaders.X-Special-Header "[\"so special :)\"]"
  
  Note that the value of the keys is an _array_ of strings. This is because
  headers can have more than one value, and it is convenient to pass through
  to other libraries.
  
  CORS Headers (for API)
  
  You can setup CORS headers the same way:
  
    ipfs config --json API.HTTPHeaders.Access-Control-Allow-Origin "[\"example.com\"]"
    ipfs config --json API.HTTPHeaders.Access-Control-Allow-Methods "[\"PUT\", \"GET\", \"POST\"]"
    ipfs config --json API.HTTPHeaders.Access-Control-Allow-Credentials "[\"true\"]"
  
  Shutdown
  
  To shut down the daemon, send a SIGINT signal to it (e.g. by pressing 'Ctrl-C')
  or send a SIGTERM signal to it (e.g. with 'kill'). It may take a while for the
  daemon to shutdown gracefully, but it can be killed forcibly by sending a
  second signal.
  
  IPFS_PATH environment variable
  
  ipfs uses a repository in the local file system. By default, the repo is
  located at ~/.ipfs. To change the repo location, set the $IPFS_PATH
  environment variable:
  
    export IPFS_PATH=/path/to/ipfsrepo
  
  Routing
  
  IPFS by default will use a DHT for content routing. There is a highly
  experimental alternative that operates the DHT in a 'client only' mode that
  can be enabled by running the daemon as:
  
    ipfs daemon --routing=dhtclient
  
  This will later be transitioned into a config option once it gets out of the
  'experimental' stage.
  
  DEPRECATION NOTICE
  
  Previously, ipfs used an environment variable as seen below:
  
    export API_ORIGIN="http://localhost:8888/"
  
  This is deprecated. It is still honored in this version, but will be removed
  in a future version, along with this notice. Please move to setting the HTTP
  Headers.


# ipfs dag

USAGE
  ipfs dag - Interact with ipld dag objects.

SYNOPSIS
  ipfs dag

DESCRIPTION

  'ipfs dag' is used for creating and manipulating dag objects/hierarchies.
  
  This subcommand is currently an experimental feature, but it is intended
  to deprecate and replace the existing 'ipfs object' command moving forward.
  		

SUBCOMMANDS
  ipfs dag export <root>        - Streams the selected DAG as a .car stream on
                                  stdout.
  ipfs dag get <ref>            - Get a dag node from ipfs.
  ipfs dag import <path>...     - Import the contents of .car files
  ipfs dag put <object data>... - Add a dag node to ipfs.
  ipfs dag resolve <ref>        - Resolve ipld block
  ipfs dag stat <root>          - Gets stats for a DAG

  For more information about each command, use:
  'ipfs dag <subcmd> --help'

# ipfs dag export

USAGE
  ipfs dag export <root> - Streams the selected DAG as a .car stream on stdout.

SYNOPSIS
  ipfs dag export [--progress | -p] [--] <root>

ARGUMENTS

  <root> - CID of a root to recursively export

OPTIONS

  -p, --progress  bool - Display progress on CLI. Defaults to true when STDERR
                         is a TTY.

DESCRIPTION

  'ipfs dag export' fetches a dag and streams it out as a well-formed .car file.
  Note that at present only single root selections / .car files are supported.
  The output of blocks happens in strict DAG-traversal, first-seen, order.


# ipfs dag get

USAGE
  ipfs dag get <ref> - Get a dag node from ipfs.

SYNOPSIS
  ipfs dag get [--] <ref>

ARGUMENTS

  <ref> - The object to get

DESCRIPTION

  'ipfs dag get' fetches a dag node from ipfs and prints it out in the specified
  format.


# ipfs dag import

USAGE
  ipfs dag import <path>... - Import the contents of .car files

SYNOPSIS
  ipfs dag import [--silent] [--pin-roots=false] [--] <path>...

ARGUMENTS

  <path>... - The path of a .car file.

OPTIONS

  --silent     bool - No output.
  --pin-roots  bool - Pin optional roots listed in the .car headers after
                      importing. Default: true.

DESCRIPTION

  'ipfs dag import' imports all blocks present in supplied .car
  ( Content Address aRchive ) files, recursively pinning any roots
  specified in the CAR file headers, unless --pin-roots is set to false.
  
  Note:
    This command will import all blocks in the CAR file, not just those
    reachable from the specified roots. However, these other blocks will
    not be pinned and may be garbage collected later.
  
    The pinning of the roots happens after all car files are processed,
    permitting import of DAGs spanning multiple files.
  
    Pinning takes place in offline-mode exclusively, one root at a time.
    If the combination of blocks from the imported CAR files and what is
    currently present in the blockstore does not represent a complete DAG,
    pinning of that individual root will fail.
  
  Maximum supported CAR version: 1


# ipfs dag put

# ipfs dht get

USAGE
  ipfs dht get <key>... - Given a key, query the routing system for its best

ARGUMENTS

  <key>... - The key to find a value for.

OPTIONS

  -v, --verbose  bool - Print extra information.

DESCRIPTION

  Outputs the best value for the given key.
  
  There may be several different values for a given key stored in the routing
  system; in this context 'best' means the record that is most desirable. There is
  no one metric for 'best': it depends entirely on the key type. For IPNS, 'best'
  is the record that is both valid and has the highest sequence number (freshest).
  Different key types can specify other 'best' rules.


# ipfs dht provide

SYNOPSIS
  ipfs dht put [--verbose | -v] [--] <key> <value-file>

ARGUMENTS

  <key>        - The key to store the value at.
  <value-file> - A path to a file containing the value to store.

OPTIONS

  -v, --verbose  bool - Print extra information.

DESCRIPTION

  Given a key of the form /foo/bar and a valid value for that key, this will write
  that value to the routing system with that key.
  
  Keys have two parts: a keytype (foo) and the key name (bar). IPNS uses the
  /ipns keytype, and expects the key name to be a Peer ID. IPNS entries are
  specifically formatted (protocol buffer).
  
  You may only use keytypes that are supported in your ipfs binary: currently
  this is only /ipns. Unless you have a relatively deep understanding of the
  go-ipfs routing internals, you likely want to be using 'ipfs name publish' instead
  of this.
  
  The value must be a valid value for the given key type. For example, if the key
  is /ipns/QmFoo, the value must be IPNS record (protobuf) signed with the key
  identified by QmFoo.

# ipfs dns

USAGE
  ipfs dns <domain-name> - Resolve DNS links.

SYNOPSIS
  ipfs dns [--recursive=false] [--] <domain-name>

ARGUMENTS

  <domain-name> - The domain-name name to resolve.

OPTIONS

  -r, --recursive  bool - Resolve until the result is not a DNS link. Default:
                          true.

DESCRIPTION

  Multihashes are hard to remember, but domain names are usually easy to
  remember.  To create memorable aliases for multihashes, DNS TXT
  records can point to other DNS links, IPFS objects, IPNS keys, etc.
  This command resolves those links to the referenced object.
  
  Note: This command can only recursively resolve DNS links,
  it will fail to recursively resolve through IPNS keys etc.
  For general-purpose recursive resolution, use ipfs name resolve -r.
  
  For example, with this DNS TXT record:
  
  	> dig +short TXT _dnslink.ipfs.io
  	dnslink=/ipfs/QmRzTuh2Lpuz7Gr39stNr6mTFdqAghsZec1JoUnfySUzcy
  
  The resolver will give:
  
  	> ipfs dns ipfs.io
  	/ipfs/QmRzTuh2Lpuz7Gr39stNr6mTFdqAghsZec1JoUnfySUzcy
  
  The resolver can recursively resolve:
  
  	> dig +short TXT recursive.ipfs.io
  	dnslink=/ipns/ipfs.io
  	> ipfs dns -r recursive.ipfs.io
  	/ipfs/QmRzTuh2Lpuz7Gr39stNr6mTFdqAghsZec1JoUnfySUzcy


# ipfs file

USAGE
  ipfs file - Interact with IPFS objects representing Unix filesystems.

SYNOPSIS
  ipfs file

DESCRIPTION

  'ipfs file' provides a familiar interface to file systems represented
  by IPFS objects, which hides ipfs implementation details like layout
  objects (e.g. fanout and chunking).

SUBCOMMANDS
  ipfs file ls <ipfs-path>... - List directory contents for Unix filesystem
                                objects. Deprecated: Use 'ipfs ls' instead.

  For more information about each command, use:
  'ipfs file <subcmd> --help'

# ipfs file ls

USAGE
  ipfs file ls <ipfs-path>... - List directory contents for Unix filesystem
                                objects. Deprecated: Use 'ipfs ls' instead.

SYNOPSIS
  ipfs file ls [--] <ipfs-path>...

ARGUMENTS

  <ipfs-path>... - The path to the IPFS object(s) to list links from.

DESCRIPTION

  Displays the contents of an IPFS or IPNS object(s) at the given path.
  
  The JSON output contains size information. For files, the child size
  is the total size of the file contents. For directories, the child
  size is the IPFS link size.
  
  The path can be a prefixless ref; in this case, we assume it to be an
  /ipfs ref and not /ipns.
  
  Example:
  
      > ipfs file ls QmW2WQi7j6c7UgJTarActp7tDNikE4B2qXtFCfLPdsgaTQ
      cat.jpg
      > ipfs file ls /ipfs/QmW2WQi7j6c7UgJTarActp7tDNikE4B2qXtFCfLPdsgaTQ
      cat.jpg
  
  This functionality is deprecated, and will be removed in future versions as it duplicates the functionality of 'ipfs ls'.
  If possible, please use 'ipfs ls' instead.


# ipfs files

USAGE
  ipfs files - Interact with unixfs files.

SYNOPSIS
  ipfs files [--flush=false]

OPTIONS

  -f, --flush  bool - Flush target and ancestors after write. Default: true.

DESCRIPTION

  Files is an API for manipulating IPFS objects as if they were a Unix
  filesystem.
  
  The files facility interacts with MFS (Mutable File System). MFS acts as a
  single, dynamic filesystem mount. MFS has a root CID that is transparently
  updated when a change happens (and can be checked with "ipfs files stat /").
  
  All files and folders within MFS are respected and will not be cleaned up
  during garbage collections. MFS is independent from the list of pinned items
  ("ipfs pin ls"). Calls to "ipfs pin add" and "ipfs pin rm" will add and remove
  pins independently of MFS. If MFS content that was
  additionally pinned is removed by calling "ipfs files rm", it will still
  remain pinned.
  
  Content added with "ipfs add" (which by default also becomes pinned), is not
  added to MFS. Any content can be put into MFS with the command "ipfs files cp
  /ipfs/<cid> /some/path/".
  
  
  NOTE:
  Most of the subcommands of 'ipfs files' accept the '--flush' flag. It defaults
  to true. Use caution when setting this flag to false. It will improve
  performance for large numbers of file operations, but it does so at the cost
  of consistency guarantees. If the daemon is unexpectedly killed before running
  'ipfs files flush' on the files in question, then data may be lost. This also
  applies to run 'ipfs repo gc' concurrently with '--flush=false'
  operations.

SUBCOMMANDS
  ipfs files chcid [<path>]      - Change the cid version or hash function of
                                   the root node of a given path.
  ipfs files cp <source> <dest>  - Copy any IPFS files and directories into MFS
                                   (or copy within MFS).
  ipfs files flush [<path>]      - Flush a given path's data to disk.
  ipfs files ls [<path>]         - List directories in the local mutable
                                   namespace.
  ipfs files mkdir <path>        - Make directories.
  ipfs files mv <source> <dest>  - Move files.
  ipfs files read <path>         - Read a file in a given MFS.
  ipfs files rm <path>...        - Remove a file.
  ipfs files stat <path>         - Display file status.
  ipfs files write <path> <data> - Write to a mutable file in a given
                                   filesystem.

  For more information about each command, use:
  'ipfs files <subcmd> --help'

# ipfs files cp

USAGE
  ipfs files cp <source> <dest> - Copy any IPFS files and directories into MFS
                                  (or copy within MFS).

SYNOPSIS
  ipfs files cp [--] <source> <dest>

ARGUMENTS

  <source> - Source IPFS or MFS path to copy.
  <dest>   - Destination within MFS.

DESCRIPTION

  "ipfs files cp" can be used to copy any IPFS file or directory (usually in the
  form /ipfs/<CID>, but also any resolvable path), into the Mutable File System
  (MFS).
  
  It can also be used to copy files within MFS, but in the case when an
  IPFS-path matches an existing MFS path, the IPFS path wins.
  
  In order to add content to MFS from disk, you can use "ipfs add" to obtain the
  IPFS Content Identifier and then "ipfs files cp" to copy it into MFS:
  
  $ ipfs add --quieter --pin=false <your file>
  # ...
  # ... outputs the root CID at the end
  $ ipfs cp /ipfs/<CID> /your/desired/mfs/path

OPTIONS

  -o, --offset              int64  - Byte offset to begin writing at.
  -e, --create              bool   - Create the file if it does not exist.
  -p, --parents             bool   - Make parent directories as needed.
  -t, --truncate            bool   - Truncate the file to size zero before
                                     writing.
  -n, --count               int64  - Maximum number of bytes to read.

                                     to 1 if used. (experimental).

DESCRIPTION

  Write data to a file in a given filesystem. This command allows you to specify
  a beginning offset to write to. The entire length of the input will be
  written.
  
  If the '--create' option is specified, the file will be created if it does not
  exist. Nonexistent intermediate directories will not be created unless the
  '--parents' option is specified.
  
  Newly created files will have the same CID version and hash function of the
  parent directory unless the '--cid-version' and '--hash' options are used.
  
  Newly created leaves will be in the legacy format (Protobuf) if the
  CID version is 0, or raw if the CID version is non-zero.  Use of the
  '--raw-leaves' option will override this behavior.
  
  If the '--flush' option is set to false, changes will not be propagated to the
  merkledag root. This can make operations much faster when doing a large number
  of writes to a deeper directory structure.
  
  EXAMPLE:
  
      echo "hello world" | ipfs files write --create --parents /myfs/a/b/file
      echo "hello world" | ipfs files write --truncate /myfs/a/b/file
  
  WARNING:
  
  Usage of the '--flush=false' option does not guarantee data durability until
  the tree has been flushed. This can be accomplished by running 'ipfs files
  stat' on the file or any of its ancestors.

# ipfs name

USAGE
  ipfs name - Publish and resolve IPNS names.

SYNOPSIS
  ipfs name

DESCRIPTION

  IPNS is a PKI namespace, where names are the hashes of public keys, and
  the private key enables publishing new (signed) values. In both publish
  and resolve, the default name used is the node's own PeerID,
  which is the hash of its public key.
  
  You can use the 'ipfs key' commands to list and generate more names and their
  respective keys.
  
  Examples:
  
  Publish an <ipfs-path> with your default name:
  
    > ipfs name publish /ipfs/QmatmE9msSfkKxoffpHwNLNKgwZG8eT9Bud6YoPab52vpy
    Published to QmbCMUZw6JFeZ7Wp9jkzbye3Fzp2GGcPgC3nmeUjfVF87n: /ipfs/QmatmE9msSfkKxoffpHwNLNKgwZG8eT9Bud6YoPab52vpy
  
  Publish an <ipfs-path> with another name, added by an 'ipfs key' command:
  
    > ipfs key gen --type=rsa --size=2048 mykey
    > ipfs name publish --key=mykey /ipfs/QmatmE9msSfkKxoffpHwNLNKgwZG8eT9Bud6YoPab52vpy
    Published to QmSrPmbaUKA3ZodhzPWZnpFgcPMFWF4QsxXbkWfEptTBJd: /ipfs/QmatmE9msSfkKxoffpHwNLNKgwZG8eT9Bud6YoPab52vpy
  
  Resolve the value of your name:
  
    > ipfs name resolve
    /ipfs/QmatmE9msSfkKxoffpHwNLNKgwZG8eT9Bud6YoPab52vpy
  
  Resolve the value of another name:

                            "ns", "us" (or "µs"), "ms", "s", "m", "h".
  --allow-offline  bool   - When offline, save the IPNS record to the the local
                            datastore without broadcasting to the network
                            instead of simply failing.

                      <ipfs-path>

ARGUMENTS

  <ipfs-path> - Path to object(s) to be pinned.

OPTIONS

  --service     string - Name of the remote pinning service to use (mandatory).
  --name        string - An optional name for the pin.
  --background  bool   - Add to the queue on the remote service and return
                         immediately (does not wait for pinned status).
                         Default: false.

DESCRIPTION

  Asks remote pinning service to pin an IPFS object from a given path or a CID.
  
  To pin CID 'bafkqaaa' to service named 'mysrv' under a pin named 'mypin':
  
    $ ipfs pin remote add --service=mysrv --name=mypin bafkqaaa
  
  The above command will block until remote service returns 'pinned' status,
  which may take time depending on the size and available providers of the pinned
  data.
  
  If you prefer to not wait for pinning confirmation and return immediately
  after remote service confirms 'queued' status, add the '--background' flag:
  
    $ ipfs pin remote add --service=mysrv --name=mypin --background bafkqaaa
  
  Status of background pin requests can be inspected with the 'ls' command.
  
  To list all pins for the CID across all statuses:
  
    $ ipfs pin remote ls --service=mysrv --cid=bafkqaaa --status=queued \
        --status=pinning --status=pinned --status=failed
  
  NOTE: a comma-separated notation is supported in CLI for convenience:
  
    $ ipfs pin remote ls --service=mysrv --cid=bafkqaaa --status=queued,pinning,pinned,failed


# ipfs pin remote ls

USAGE
  ipfs pin remote ls - List objects pinned to remote pinning service.

SYNOPSIS
  ipfs pin remote ls [--service=<service>] [--name=<name>] [--cid=<cid>]...

OPTIONS

  --service  string - Name of the remote pinning service to use (mandatory).
  --name     string - Return pins with names that contain the value provided
                      (case-sensitive, exact match).
  --cid      array  - Return pins for the specified CIDs (comma-separated).
  --status   array  - Return pins with the specified statuses
                      (queued,pinning,pinned,failed). Default: [pinned].

DESCRIPTION

  Returns a list of objects that are pinned to a remote pinning service.
  
  NOTE: By default, it will only show matching objects in 'pinned' state.
  Pass '--status=queued,pinning,pinned,failed' to list pins in all states.


# ipfs pin remote rm

USAGE
  ipfs pin remote rm - Remove pins from remote pinning service.

SYNOPSIS
  ipfs pin remote rm [--service=<service>] [--name=<name>] [--cid=<cid>]...
                     [--status=<status>]... [--force]

OPTIONS

  --service  string - Name of the remote pinning service to use (mandatory).
  --name     string - Remove pins with names that contain provided value
                      (case-sensitive, exact match).
  --cid      array  - Remove pins for the specified CIDs.
  --status   array  - Remove pins with the specified statuses
                      (queued,pinning,pinned,failed). Default: [pinned].
  --force    bool   - Allow removal of multiple pins matching the query without
                      additional confirmation. Default: false.

DESCRIPTION

  Removes remote pins, allowing them to be garbage-collected if needed.
  
  This command accepts the same search query parameters as 'ls', and it is good
  practice to execute 'ls' before 'rm' to confirm the list of pins to be removed.
  
  To remove a single pin for a specific CID:
  
    $ ipfs pin remote ls --service=mysrv --cid=bafkqaaa
    $ ipfs pin remote rm --service=mysrv --cid=bafkqaaa
  
  When more than one pin matches the query on the remote service, an error is
  returned.  To confirm the removal of multiple pins, pass '--force':
  
    $ ipfs pin remote ls --service=mysrv --name=popular-name
    $ ipfs pin remote rm --service=mysrv --name=popular-name --force
  
  NOTE: When no '--status' is passed, implicit '--status=pinned' is used.
  To list and then remove all pending pin requests, pass an explicit status list:
  
    $ ipfs pin remote ls --service=mysrv --status=queued,pinning,failed
    $ ipfs pin remote rm --service=mysrv --status=queued,pinning,failed --force

ARGUMENTS

  <ipfs-path>... - Path to object(s) to be unpinned.

OPTIONS

  -r, --recursive  bool - Recursively unpin the object linked to by the
                          specified object(s). Default: true.

DESCRIPTION

  Removes the pin from the given object allowing it to be garbage
  collected if needed. (By default, recursively. Use -r=false for direct pins.)


# ipfs pin update

USAGE
  ipfs pin update <from-path> <to-path> - Update a recursive pin
