I know I can wrap files in a directory when I use “ipfs add”. However, when I have already added files with “ipfs add”, is there some way I can create a directory out of the list of the resulting hashes?
Yes, it just isn’t in a very discoverable place. You need the object
sub-section for this:
~$ ipfs object patch add-link --help
...
Example:
$ EMPTY_DIR=$(ipfs object new unixfs-dir)
$ BAR=$(echo "bar" | ipfs add -q)
$ ipfs object patch $EMPTY_DIR add-link foo $BAR
This takes an empty directory, and adds a link named 'foo' under it, pointing
to a file containing 'bar', and returns the hash of the new object.
So create a directory with pinned objects?
