For the back story on this change, please see: ipfs-inactive/interface-js-ipfs-core#388 (review) BREAKING CHANGE: Object API refactor. Object API methods that write DAG nodes now return a [CID](https://www.npmjs.com/package/cids) instead of a DAG node. Affected methods: * `ipfs.object.new` * `ipfs.object.patch.addLink` * `ipfs.object.patch.appendData` * `ipfs.object.patch.rmLink` * `ipfs.object.patch.setData` * `ipfs.object.put` Example: ```js // Before const dagNode = await ipfs.object.new() ``` ```js // After const cid = await ipfs.object.new() // now returns a CID const dagNode = await ipfs.object.get(cid) // fetch the DAG node that was created ``` IMPORTANT: `DAGNode` instances, which are part of the IPLD dag-pb format have been refactored. These instances no longer have `multihash`, `cid` or `serialized` properties. This effects the following API methods that return these types of objects: * `ipfs.object.get` * `ipfs.dag.get` See ipld/js-ipld-dag-pb#99 for more information.

BREAKING CHANGE: Object API refactor.
Object API methods that write DAG nodes now return a CID instead of a DAG node. Affected methods:
ipfs.object.new
ipfs.object.patch.addLink
ipfs.object.patch.appendData
ipfs.object.patch.rmLink
ipfs.object.patch.setData
ipfs.object.put
Example:
IMPORTANT:
DAGNode
instances, which are part of the IPLD dag-pb format have been refactored.These instances no longer have
multihash
,cid
orserialized
properties.This effects the following API methods that return these types of objects:
ipfs.object.get
ipfs.dag.get
