Collects IPFS basic information like file system bandwidth, peers and repo metrics.

Charts

It produces the following charts:

• Bandwidth in kilobits/s

• Repo Size in GiB
• Repo Objects in objects

Configuration

Edit the python.d/ipfs.conf configuration file using edit-config from the Netdata config directory, which is typically at /etc/netdata.

cd /etc/netdata   # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
sudo ./edit-config python.d/ipfs.conf

Calls to the following endpoints are disabled due to IPFS bugs:

• /api/v0/stats/repo (https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/issues/3874)
• /api/v0/pin/ls (https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/issues/7528)

Can be enabled in the collector configuration file.

The configuration needs only url to IPFS server, here is an example for 2 IPFS instances:

localhost:
  url: 'http://localhost:5001'

remote:
  url: 'http://203.0.113.10::5001'
