The compliance test suite for IPFS Pinning Service API Spec

Getting started

Run the compliance checker against a service:

Disclaimer: It is recommended to use an auth_token separate from your production/live services. The compliance checks will do their best not to corrupt any existing pins you have, but consistent tests without consistent data is challenging.

npx @ipfs-shipyard/pinning-service-compliance -s <pinning_service_endpoint> <auth_token>

Development

Run the script

npm ci
npm run build

npm start -- -s $API_ENDPOINT $ACCESS_TOKEN
 # or multiple endpoints
npm start -- -s $API_ENDPOINT1 $ACCESS_TOKEN1 -s $API_ENDPOINT2 $ACCESS_TOKEN2

Debugging

To debug problems, you should use the -d flag, and the dev-start script:

npm run dev-start -- -s $API_ENDPOINT $ACCESS_TOKEN
