ipfs-browser-gateway
Given an IPFS multihash, print the content and try to render web page if the content is HTML.
Notice that currently deployed version in gh-page have problem loading website served with IFPS, it will only load files, videos and images.
Latest refactor is happened in exxhentai/rehentai-frontend, it will be merged here after being stabilized.
Development
This is a "create-react-app" app, so in local development just:
npm i && npm start
Deployment
To deploy this gateway by your self, replace all http://onetwo.ren/ipfs-browser-gateway/ in this repo with your own website.
You can fork it and deploy it via gh-pages: npm run deploy, or deploy it use now.
Drawback
- The first visit to a webpage hosted in IPFS is way slower than traditional HTTP page. Though server side gateway
http://ipfs.io/ipfsis slow too. (but in next version you can add a peer, thus directly connect to it) - Can't promise long-term cache, compared to a gateway running on a server, who can pin a file for a longer time.
- Don't work with AJAX likes fetch API, see my comment in ipfs/public-gateway-checker.
- May break service worker inside page delivered by ipfs (untested).
Road Map
- Refactor
- Cache
