+# IPFS monitoring with Netdata
+
+Collects [`IPFS`](https://ipfs.io) basic information like file system bandwidth, peers and repo metrics.
+
+## Charts
+
+It produces the following charts:
+
+- Bandwidth in `kilobits/s`
+- Peers in `peers`
+- Repo Size in `GiB`
+- Repo Objects in `objects`
+
+## Configuration
+
+Edit the `python.d/ipfs.conf` configuration file using `edit-config` from the Netdata [config
+directory](/docs/configure/nodes.md), which is typically at `/etc/netdata`.
+
+```bash
+cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
+sudo ./edit-config python.d/ipfs.conf
+```
+
+---
+
+Calls to the following endpoints are disabled due to `IPFS` bugs:
+
+- `/api/v0/stats/repo` (https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/issues/3874)
+- `/api/v0/pin/ls` (https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/issues/7528)
+
+Can be enabled in the collector configuration file.
+
+The configuration needs only `url` to `IPFS` server, here is an example for 2 `IPFS` instances:
+
+```yaml
+localhost:
+ url: 'http://localhost:5001'
+
+remote:
+ url: 'http://203.0.113.10::5001'
+```
