I am working on an application which adds a directory or a file in MFS and pins it on ipfs-cluster.
The thing that seems to be missing to me is the fact that MFS methods don’t give me back the hash of the Directory/File created using mkdir
or write
.
Right now, I have to ls
to get all the objects in the MFS. I know that MFS is not supposed to return the hashes as aims to mimic the unix file system, so it should not output any hashes.
But adding a flag to optionally return the hashes can be useful for some class of applications.
If it seems legit to add a flag then I can work out a PR for go-ipfs
.
