Convert files to content-addressable archives and back. ipfs-car is a library and CLI tool to pack & unpack files from Content Addressable aRchives (CAR) file. A thin wrapper over @ipld/car and unix-fs. Content-addressable archives store data as blocks (a sequence of bytes) each prefixed with the Content ID (CID) derived from the hash of the data; typically in a file with a .car extension. Use ipfs-car to pack your files into a .car; a portable, verifiable, IPFS-compatible archive.
