The unixfs type for file is 2, and directory is 1.
Sources:
[0] https://github.com/ipfs/js-ipfs-unixfs/blob/master/src/unixfs.proto.js#L6,L7
[1] https://github.com/ipfs/js-ipfs/blob/master/src/http/api/resources/files.js#L323,L332
Also per source [1], it appears that js-ipfs-unixfs-engine uses dir[2] instead of directory. However, js-ipfs-unixfs defines the string type as directory[3].

[3] https://github.com/ipfs/js-ipfs-unixfs/blob/master/src/index.js#L11
I'm unsure if this is going to cause a conflict immediately though, but it looks like js-ipfs-unixfs-engine should be updated as well at some point.

That's strange, because I'm getting 0s for files and 1s for directories... Hmmm, well, I'll take a look at this later then. 😄

What are the numbers in go-ipfs?

They are here: https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/blob/v0.4.15/mfs/system.go#L39-L42 (I ran into this separately.) Talking with @whyrusleeping on IRC about it, because a) confusing and b) not well documented. I'd also expected them to match UnixFS.

@alanshaw I believe I missed it!! Just read the comments. I'll work on those points. I'll close this PR as soon as I open a new one since this is a bit out of date. |
