v2.7.0 (Stable)

Changes Since v2.6.3

• Web UI v2.3.3 (#660)
• Warning about mixed content errors (#650), closes #648

  

• window.ipfs v2: added window.ipfs.enable() (#619)
  • Context and main discussion: #589
  • Newly added await window.ipfs.enable({ commands: ['id','peers'] }) triggers the Bulk Permission Prompt:

    

  • Deprecation warning is shown for window.ipfs.<cmd>():

    Calling commands directly on window.ipfs is deprecated and will be removed on 2019-04-01. Use API instance returned by window.ipfs.enable() instead. More: /docs/window.ipfs.md

    • Tip: if possible, use window.ipfs-fallback library that takes care of basic fallback ceremony.
      It will ensure your app follows API changes and does not break in the future.
  • Support opt-in ipfsx experiment (b633eb4)

    if experiments:{ipfsx:true} is passed to window.ipfs.enable it will return IPFS API instance wrapped in ipfsx prototype from ipfs-shipyard/ipfsx

  • Remove ACL whitelist for window.ipfs (756b177)

    no command can be run without explicit approval from the user
