ipfs can run as part of your program (an in-process node) or as a standalone daemon process that can be communicated with via an HTTP RPC API using the ipfs-http-client module.
Whether accessed directly or over HTTP, both methods support the full Core API. In addition other methods are available to construct instances of each module, etc.
