IPFS pin in background

Help
1

Is there a way to tell IPFS daemon ā€œget this hash and make it availableā€ in an in-the-background, survives-restarts kind of way?

I guess I could run ( ipfs pin ... & ) & to get in-the-background

But what I really want is to be able to turn my computer off, etc, mid-download (or even temporarily pause the download while I do something else) and have it resume when the daemon next starts.

I know this is several features, but just wondering if thereā€™s been much thought on how this could/should work, etc.

Thanks!

Pin add is kind of resumable, unless you run GC in between pin add invocations. Otherwise, thereā€™s no such functionality yet.
