Remove Writable Gateway #9738
Comments
@hacdias : I'm in favor. |
Do we know if there are any users of it? |
The legacy It was marked as deprecated to set expectations, so people don't build new things on it while we work on ipfs/specs#375. The plan was to improve onboarding data over HTTP POST, make it useful beyond flat files, support JSON/CBOR, blocks and CARs. Create IPIP spec for it, and replace the legacy writable gateway with better/more comprehensive API Unfortunately, boxo and the Project Rhea happened, and our timelines/roadmaps changed again and again, but the rationale for ipfs/specs#375 is still valid, and I believe we should get back to it once we are done with Rhea. |
That is to say: I don't know when we will be able to get back to HTTP POST work, This way users like ipfs/specs#375 (comment) will not be tempted to use legacy API, and be forced to use RPC at |
Checklist
Description
We deprecated the writable gateway in 0.19.0 (#9622). I'm creating this issue to track its complete removal so we have less code to maintain and less sources of possible bugs. I vote on removing it in 0.20. It's a relative simple removal. Wdyt? @ipfs/kubo-maintainers
