Example for connecting multiple node id and fetching the collection

Open silicology1 opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

The gateway example connects a single node, and then fetching the file.

What if I want to connect multiple node ids that have a file with the same hash, and download different parts of file from different node in parallel?

The gateway is not able to do this currently

Is it possible to do it with iroh currently? The example I saw all were fetching file from single node id.

take a look at this tracking issue on iroh-blobs to know when fetching the same content from multiple nodeIDs will be available ( which we call "multi-provider fan-in") https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh-blobs/issues/4
