Struct IpfsHasher 

pub struct IpfsHasher { /* private fields */ }

Provide the bytes of your content and IpfsHasher will return the IPFS hash.

Calculation the IPFS hash of a file is not as trivial as passing all its bytes into a Hasher. It first requires to split the bytes in a chunks of a given size, turning those into blocks, giving 1..n CIDs then return the root CID. This is what this crate does. If you need more control, check out the cid and the `ipfs-unixfs`` crates. This crate procudes CidV0.
