Auspinner

auspinner is a stateless CLI tool to easily pin CAR files to IPFS pinning services. It's essentially a client for the IPFS Pinning Service API that speaks HTTP and Bitswap.

Made with ❤️ during Protocol Labs Launchpad

Features

• List pins and by status
• Delete pins by their pin request ID
• Add pins
  • Serve them over Bitswap by connecting to the delegates returned from the pinning service
  • Alternatively, if no delegates are returned, the --use-origins flag uses libp2p NAT port mapping to get a public address which is passed in the origins to the pinning service

Supported pinning services

Auspinner has been tested to work with:

• nft.storage
• web3.storage
• pinata
• estuary
• Filebase

Check out the pinning service compliance reports to see which services are correctly implementing the IPFS Pinning Service API Spec.
