Hi!
After some discussions on #guix on irc.freenode.org with ludovic,
p9kill, roptat, swedebugia, and others which I sadly forgot, I decided
to scramble together a proof-of-concept hacky prototype for a mechanism
to share binary substitutes via ipfs. There are two parts to this:
1] A hacky guix package for ipfs based on their binary release:
https://github.com/fps/guix-packages/blob/master/ipfs-hack.scm
2] Some hazardly thrown together shell scripts to implement the caching
and uploading to ipfs: https://github.com/fps/guix-ipfs-cache
The README.md on the second link goes into some technical details and
the rationale for this attempt.
This is in no way ready for production use. But if you want to play
around with it, feel free..
Have fun and regards,
Flo
