A pinning service is a service that accepts CIDs from a user in order to host the data associated with them. The rationale behind defining a generic pinning service API is to have a baseline functionality and interface that can be provided by pinning services, so that tools can be built on top of a common base of functionality.

Features

  • The API spec in this repo is the first step towards that future
  • This API is defined as an OpenAPI spec in YAML format
  • You can find human-readable API documentation generated from the YAML file
  • Code generation
  • Built-in support for pinning services exposing this API is coming to IPFS tooling
  • Client libraries
  • Server implementations
