Release v0.1.1
This release is beta, and its purpose is to validate the main concepts and collect some feedbacks/bugs. If you wants to share something, open a new issue! 👍
The app has the following basic features:
- Starts IPFS Daemon when the app is started (Configurable path for binary file)
- Connects to IPFS Daemon via https://github.com/ipfs/js-ipfs-api
- Sows the user the list of the pinned objects
- Adds a file by interface/buttons or drag-and-drop
- Removes objects from the UI
- Opens using browser (uses https://ipfs.io/ipfs links)
- Allows the user to save an object locally
- Adds a pinned object from hash (useful for file transfers).
More features will come, as well as support for js-ipfs
instead of the API. help and feedback is needed! 😸
Download via IPFS
It is possible to download the macOS app using the following hash and command:
# Hash: QmUkPucZ1WUxwGqR979YAKj2UfUsqpSze6MPDcmhtbzmst
ipfs get QmUkPucZ1WUxwGqR979YAKj2UfUsqpSze6MPDcmhtbzmst -o Lumpy-0.1.1
You can also download it from the following link:

How to Install and use
This release has been tested on macOS, but ideally can work on Linux as well. What is needed is the IPFS binary installed. Next releases will not rely on IPFS daemon, since the javascript implementation will be used directly. If you have homebrew, you can easily do it by running:
brew install ipfs
ipfs init
Once installed, simply download the Zip file, extract it and double click on the Lumpy.app
.
Note: The default path of the binary is /usr/local/bin/ipfs
but it is possible to configure in the settings of the app.
