# 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' ``` --- [](<>)
