Overview

🔦 Highlights

Kubo binary imports

For users of Kubo preloaded plugins there is now a way to create a kubo instance with your plugins by depending on the cmd/ipfs/kubo package rather than rebuilding kubo with the included plugins.

See the customization docs for more information.

Several deprecated commands have been removed

Several deprecated commands have been removed:

• ipfs urlstore deprecated in April 2019, Kubo 0.4.21, use ipfs add -q --nocopy --cid-version=1 {url} instead.
• ipfs repo fsck deprecated in July 2019, Kubo 0.5.0
• ipfs file (and ipfs file ls) deprecated in November 2020, Kubo 0.8.0, use ipfs ls and ipfs files ls instead.
• ipfs dns deprecated in April 2022, Kubo 0.13, use ipfs resolve /ipns/{name} instead.
• ipfs tar deprecated April 2022, Kubo 0.13

Support optional pin names

You can now add a name to a pin when pinning a CID. To do so, use ipfs pin add --name "Some Name" bafy.... You can list your pins, including their names, with ipfs pin ls --names.

jaeger trace exporter has been removed

jaeger exporter has been removed from upstream, you should use otlp exporter instead.
See the boxo tracing docs for an example.
