README

        

This is a simple ipfs dht crawler, written to diagnose

connectivity issues in the network.

To build:

```

make

```

to run:

```

ipfs-crawl

```

This will run indefinitely and generate a file `ipfs-crawl.out` in the

current directory, logging (in json) the results of connection attemps

to peers discovered during the crawl.

If you want detailed dial logs, then invoke the crawler with:

```

ipfs-crawl -log-dial

```

This will log all dial events to `ipfs-crawl-events.json` in the current

directory. But see issue #4 for a wart.

Note: You should make sure your file descriptor ulimit is sufficiently

high to potentially connect to all the reachable peers. The network is

currently small enough for this to be practical.
