Airlock

Airlock is kinda like a decentralized dropbox/mega with a catalog/filterable index of files.

You will need access to a running IPFS node and Ethereum node.

The simple way is to run both nodes locally and connect to them via localhost/127.0.0.1, which Airlock defaults to.

geth --rpc
ipfs config --json API.HTTPHeaders.Access-Control-Allow-Origin '["*"]'
ipfs daemon

or if you want to have IPFS and Ethereum on a different machine on your LAN you need to enable access to their API ports..

Manually edit .ipfs/config and change the API and Gateway to listen on 0.0.0.0

geth --rpc --rpcaddr 0.0.0.0

Note: IPFS on windows throws an error currently for the HTTPHeaders command quoted, you will need to add it manually to IPFS config file.

Content from Ethereum is displayed as a placeholder before found in IPFS.
Content is added to IPFS as objects and not blocks, this enables content to be pinned.
