IPFS / IPNS peer ID generator

This tool generates IPFS public and private keypair until it finds public key which contains required substring. Keys are stored in local directory. If you like one of them, you can move it to ~/.ipfs/keystore/ to use it with IPFS.

Installation

go install github.com/meehow/peer-id-generator@latest

Usage

➜ ~ peer-id-generator dupa

^C

➜ ~ cp 12D3KooWMJmDUPAtjcaHo8LARo5VHQ5uSxrt8Mdi5fytiRnnfD2f ~/.ipfs/keystore/dupa

➜ ~ ipfs name publish --key=dupa {ipfs-path}

Examples

In examples you can find key pairs which contain word "funny" at the end of Peer ID. They are just for demonstration purposes. Please consider these private keys as already leaked.

Benchmarks

This tool is using Ed25519 algorithm because it is able to generate keys 2500 times faster than RSA and both can work with IPFS.
