Instructions
You can join a collaborative cluster by running a “follower” peer (a peer without write access to the Cluster’s pinset). In order to run a follower peer:
- Start your go-ipfs daemon online.
- Download the ipfs-cluster-follow application.
- Execute the Init&Run command from the Cluster descriptions above, after starting your IPFS daemon. This will initialize and run the peer, which will pin archive items to your IPFS daemon.
- To check what is being pinned by this cluster, run
ipfs-cluster-follow <clusterName> list
Note that ipfs-cluster-follow will try to pin the full archive, so you will need at least as much space available in your node as the Size requirement indicates for each archive.
Follow as many collaborative clusters as you want, the different follower peers will run in parallel!
