npm install orbit-db ipfs 

First, create an instance of OrbitDB:

import * as IPFS from 'ipfs' import OrbitDB from 'orbit-db' const ipfs = new IPFS() const orbitdb = await OrbitDB.createInstance(ipfs)

Get a key-value database and add an entry to it:

const kv = await orbitdb.kvstore('settings') kv.put('volume', '100') .then(() => { console.log(kv.get('volume')) // 100 })

Later, when the database contains data, load the history and query when ready:

const kv = await orbitdb.kvstore('settings') kv.events.on('ready', () => { console.log(kv.get('volume')) // 100 })
