How to upload to dporn.co currently
Have IPFS installed and working.
Go to dporn.co upload page.
Load your video into the 'Basic' viewer and select a snap. Save this with your video, might save as download.png.
use command: ipfs add -w "videoname.mp4" "download.png"
This adds videoname.mp4 and download.png to IPFS and gives out 3 hashes.Go to 'Advanced' tab on dporn.co upload page. Add the videoname.mp4 ipfs hash to the video fields. Add the download.png ipfs hash to the Poster field.
Enter your description and categories, etc.
Submit Post.
Confirm file is reachable through the public ipfs gateways. https://ipfs.io/ipfs/FileHashGoesHere.
Thank you for sharing! Know any good tutorials for running ipfs?
There's https://ipfs.io/docs/getting-started/
The #ipfs channel on the freenode irc network is also a great place to ask questions and learn.
I don't run windows so I can't help with the install for that if you do use it.
Basically once you have it installed and initialized from "ipfs init" then you can run the daemon, "ipfs daemon" and you become a node and you should be able to point your browser to https://127.0.0.1:8080/ipfs/some-ipfs-hash and get a file.
I actually use, "ipfs daemon --enable-gc" which enables garbage collecting, and hypothetically clears out anything you haven't explicitly saved when you hit a 10GB (editable variable) cache size.
You can run "ipfs commands" to see the full command set.
The most frequent commands I probably use are,
The daemon of course: ipfs daemon --enable-gc
Adding a file/directory wrapped inside of a directory: ipfs add -w filename.ext
'Pinning' or 'Mirroring' a file/directory recursively to your machine: ipfs pin -r some-ipfs-hash
Pinning something and leaving the daemon on lets you effectively act as a seeder for that file if your machine is connectible.
This post was SFW. Just so you know.
I figured since dporn.co is blacklisted on my work network that maybe even uttering it was NSFW.
Ahhhh
I'm so close!
I put the hashes in, enter all the stuff, the "Post Video" button lights up.... but nothing happens when I click it :(
Any more hints? Thanks for sharing so much info :)
Are you loading the video into the 'Basic' section even though it seems to do little other than let you take a snap? It seemed like if I skipped to the 'Advanced' bit without doing that then it wouldn't want to post.
That's all I can think of. I've been posting on chrome if it matters.
d'oh! That did it
Thank yo so much!
