Kubo RPC API | IPFS Docs (original) (raw)
# Kubo RPC API v0 reference
When a Kubo IPFS node is running as a daemon, it exposes an HTTP RPC API that allows you to control the node and run the same commands you can from the command line.
In many cases, using this RPC API is preferable to embedding IPFS directly in your program — it allows you to maintain peer connections that are longer lived than your app and you can keep a single IPFS node running instead of several if your app can be launched multiple times. In fact, the ipfs CLI commands use this RPC API when operating in online mode.
NEVER EXPOSE THE RPC API TO THE PUBLIC INTERNET
The RPC API provides admin-level access to your Kubo IPFS node, including /api/v0/config.
It is bound to localhost by default on purpose. You should never expose it to the public internet, just like you would never expose a SQL database or other backend service.
To expose the RPC API to the public internet with TLS encryption and HTTP authentication, check out the TLS and HTTP Auth for Kubo with Caddy guide.
If you are looking for an interface designed for browsers and public internet, consider implementation-agnostic HTTP Gateway instead.
# Getting started
# Alignment with CLI commands
The API under /api/v0/ is an RPC-style API over HTTP, not a REST API.
Every command usable from the CLI is also available through the HTTP RPC API. For example:
# Arguments
Arguments are added through the special query string key "arg":
Note that it can be used multiple times to signify multiple arguments.
# Flags
Flags are added through the query string. For example, the --encoding=json flag is the &encoding=json query parameter below:
Some flags may be repeated. For example, the --status flag may be reused as below:
TIP
Some arguments may belong only to the CLI but appear here too. These usually belong to client-side processing of input, particularly in the add command.
Additionally, as a convenience certain CLI commands may allow passing repeated flags as delimited lists such asipfs pin remote service ls --status=pinned,pinning; however, this does not apply to the HTTP API.
# HTTP status codes
Status codes used at the RPC layer are simple:
200- The request was processed or is being processed (streaming)500- RPC endpoint returned an error400- Malformed RPC, argument type error, etc403- RPC call forbidden404- RPC endpoint doesn't exist405- HTTP Method Not Allowed
Status code 500 means that the function does exist, but IPFS was not able to fulfil the request because of an error. To know that reason, you have to look at the error message that is usually returned with the body of the response (if no error, check the daemon logs).
Streaming endpoints fail as above, unless they have started streaming. That means they will have sent a 200 status code already. If an error happens during the stream, it will be included in a Trailer response header (some endpoints may additionally include an error in the last streamed object).
A 405 error may mean that you are using the wrong HTTP method (i.e. GET instead of POST), and a 403 error occurs in a browser due to Origin / CORS.
# Origin-based security
When a request is sent from a browser, HTTP RPC API follows the Origin-based security model (opens new window), and expects the Origin HTTP header to be present. The API will return HTTP Error 403 when Origin is missing, does not match the API port, or is not safelisted via API.HTTPHeaders.Access-Control-Allow-Origin in the config.
# RPC commands

# Request Body
Argument path is of file type. This endpoint expects one or several files (depending on the command) in the body of the request as 'multipart/form-data'.
The add command not only allows adding files, but also uploading directories and complex hierarchies.
For example, to upload multiple files and have them show up in a specific folder structure:
This happens as follows: Every part in the multipart request is a directory or a file to be added to IPFS.
Directory parts have a special content type application/x-directory. These parts do not carry any data. The part headers look as follows:
File parts carry the file payload after the following headers:
The above file includes its path in the "folderName/file.txt" hierarchy and IPFS will therefore be able to add it inside "folderName". The parts declaring the directories are optional when they have files inside and will be inferred from the filenames. In any case, a depth-first traversal of the directory tree is recommended to order the different parts making the request.
NOTE: The Abspath header is included for experimental filestore/urlstore features that are enabled with the nocopy option and it can be set to the location of the file in the filesystem (within the IPFS root), or to its full web URL.
