What benefit does it have over just exposing the DAG Import endpoint of Kubo RPC?

v1rtl.site•63 days ago

makes it easier to deploy websited, whereas with Kubo you gotta be careful with how you expose RPC endpoints, and have to configure api tokens manually and so fourth

I'm also not sure how to set upload limits on Kubo

v1rtl.site•63 days ago

another solution would perhaps be better documentation on how to configure Kubo for website hosting, which is quite a common use case for people who prefer to self host but also want to benefit from content addressing

You you be more specific. Which aspect? Uploading CARs or serving over https and IPFS?

v1rtl.site•63 days ago

Setting up Kubo as a self hostable website hosting tool. Not as a gateway but to upload *.car websites into Kubo over an endpoint, similar to uploading a CAR file to e.g. Storacha

I know this is possible with Kubo, but you have to figure it out on your own and the surface of error is really huge

Surface area of error reminds me of that time @norman.life introduced me to "falling into the pit of success" https://blog.codinghorror.com/falling-into-the-pit-of-success/
