Copy the ipfs file from this repo to the directory for apt transport methods:

sudo wget --output-document /usr/lib/apt/methods/ipfs https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JaquerEspeis/apt-transport-ipfs/master/ipfs
sudo chmod +x /usr/lib/apt/methods/ipfs
git clone https://github.com/JaquerEspeis/apt-transport-ipfs
sudo mv ipfs /usr/lib/apt/methods/ipfs

# Configure

Add an IPFS mirror to your apt sources.list file. TODO set up a mirror.

# Hacky local test
# Hacky test

While we set up a proper IPFS mirror, this can be tested by adding a bunch
of files:
While we set up a proper IPFS mirror, this can be tested by using a hardcoded
IPFS hash that was manually set up to serve the hello deb.

cd ~
mkdir --parents test-archive/dists/xenial/
cd test-archive/dists/xenial
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/InRelease
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/Release
ipfs add --recursive ~/test-archive
Backup your /etc/apt/sources.list, remove all the lines that it has and leave it
just with:

The last line that this command returns will be something like:
deb ipfs://QmTNL3t9h23ZUUSsRj1h4CaZ6SLQF6xFoLcve2gAMcLdWA xenial main

added {hash} test-archive
To test it, run:

Now, add that hash to /etc/apt/source.list with the following form:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install hello

deb ipfs://{hash} xenial main
This IPFS node is not permanent and will disappear. To set it up again, use the
script in `scripts/add_test_mirror.sh`.
