A block, an IPNS record, etc.

Member Function Documentation

CallChild()

auto Node::CallChild ( ResolutionState &  state, std::function< NodePtr(std::string_view)>  gen_child  )

protected

When the child's name is not the next element in the path, but it must be known about. e.g. index.html for a path ending in a directory

deroot()

auto Node::deroot ( )

virtual

Returns

*this if it's not a Root, otherwise its child

expired()

auto Node::expired ( ) const

virtual

Returns

Whether the node should be considered expired.

Note

immutable data never expires

Reimplemented in ipfs::ipld::IpnsName, and ipfs::ipld::DnsLinkName.

PreferOver()

auto Node::PreferOver ( DagNode const &  another ) const

virtual

Returns

Whether this is a "better"/more-up-to-date replacement

Parameters

another

The node to compare to.

Resolve()

auto Node::Resolve

(

ResolutionState &

params

)

Query the DAG

Parameters

params

Information about what you're looking for

Returns

The data needed or how to get it or some additional info needed before asking again.

rooted()

auto Node::rooted ( )

virtual

Get a root node that is logically this node

Returns

this iff this is of type ipfs::ipld::Root Otherwise a Root that has this as a child.

set_api()

void Node::set_api

(

std::shared_ptr< Client >

api

)

Provide the Client API to be used in DAG operations

Parameters

api	Shared pointer to API for the context being run in

Member Data Documentation

api_

std::shared_ptr<Client> ipfs::ipld::DagNode::api_

protected

When the next path element is what's needed, and it should already be a link known about...

links_

std::vector<std::pair<std::string, Link> > ipfs::ipld::DagNode::links_

protected

The child nodes of this node, possibly not yet fetched.

Note

In some cases the string is empty. For example as stem node of a UnixFS (multi-node) file.
