Function rust_ipfs::refs::iplds_refs

pub fn iplds_refs<'a, MaybeOwned, Iter>(
    repo: MaybeOwned,
    iplds: Iter,
    max_depth: Option<u64>,
    unique: bool
) -> impl Stream<Item = Result<Edge, Error>> + Send + 'a
where
    MaybeOwned: Borrow<Repo> + Send + 'a,
    Iter: IntoIterator<Item = (Cid, Ipld)> + Send + 'a,

Gather links as edges between two documents from all of the iplds which represent the document and it’s original Cid, as the Ipld can be a subtree of the document.

This stream does not stop on error.

Differences from other implementations

js-ipfs does seem to do a recursive descent on all links. Looking at the tests it would appear that go-ipfs implements this in similar fashion. This implementation is breadth-first to be simpler at least.

Lifetime of returned stream

Depending on how this function is called, the lifetime will be tied to the lifetime of given &Ipfs or 'static when given ownership of Ipfs.
