pawal/specs: Technical specifications for the IPFS protocol stack

This repository contains the specs for the IPFS Protocol and associated subsystems.

Looking for user support?

See Documentation, Discussion Forums, and other Community Resources instead.

We use the following label system to identify the state of each spec:

Nothing in this spec repository is permanent or even stable yet. Most of the subsystems are still a draft or in reliable state.

The specs contained in this and related repositories are:

• IPFS Protocol:
  • IPFS Guide - to start your IPFS journey
  • Protocol Architecture Overview - the top-level spec and the stack
• User Interface (aka Public APIs):
  • HTTP Gateways - implementation agnostic interfaces for accessing content-addressed data over HTTP
  • Routing V1 - implementation agnostic interfaces for content/peer/IPNS routing over HTTP
  • IPFS implementations may provide additional HTTP interfaces, for example:
    • Kubo RPC at /api/v0
• Data Formats:
  • IPLD - InterPlanetary Linked Data.
    • DAG-CBOR - binary format, supporting the complete IPLD Data Model, with excellent performance, and suitable for any job.
    • DAG-JSON - human-readable format, supporting almost the complete IPLD Data Model, and very convenient for interoperability, development, and debugging.
    • DAG-PB - a binary format for specific limited structures of data, which is highly used in IPFS and UnixFS.
    • CAR - transport format used to store content addressable objects in the form of IPLD block data as a sequence of bytes; typically as an application/vnd.ipld.car file with a .car extension
  • Self Describing Formats (multiformats):
    • multihash - self-describing hash digest format.
    • multiaddr - self-describing addressing format.
    • multicodec - self-describing protocol/encoding streams (note: a file is a stream).
    • multistream - multistream is a format -- or simple protocol -- for disambiguating, and layering streams. It is extremely simple.
• Files and Directories:
  • UnixFS
  • Related userland concepts (external docs):
    • MFS, Mutable File System, or the Files API
• Storage Layer:
  • Pinning Service API
  • Repo - IPFS node local repository spec
    • FileSystem Repo - IPFS node local repository spec
• Block Exchanges:
  • Bitswap - BitTorrent-inspired exchange
• Key Management:
  • KeyStore - Key management on IPFS
  • KeyChain - Distribution of cryptographic Artifacts
• Networking layer:
  • libp2p - libp2p is a modular and extensible network stack, built and use by IPFS, but that it can be reused as a standalone project. Covers:
• Records, Naming and Record Systems:
  • IPNS - InterPlanetary Naming System
    • IPNS Record Creation and Verification
    • IPNS over PubSub
  • DNSLink - mapping DNS names to IPFS content paths
  • DNSAddr - mapping DNS names to libp2p multiaddrs
• Other/related/included:
  • PDD - Protocol Driven Development

Suggestions, contributions, criticisms are welcome. Though please make sure to familiarize yourself deeply with IPFS, the models it adopts, and the principles it follows. This repository falls under the IPFS Code of Conduct.
