Description: # piskg (Python IPFS Swarm Key Generator)
        
        This program generates swarm.key file for IPFS Private Network feature.
        
        ## Installing
        
        ``` {.sourceCode .bash}
        $ pip install piskg
        ```
        
        ## Usage
        
        ```
        $ piskg > ~/.ipfs/swarm.key
        ```
        
        Change `~/.ipfs/` to different directory if you use custom `IPFS_PATH`. To
        join a private network, save the key value to your `~/.ipfs/swarm.key`.
        
        When using this feature, you will not be able to connect to the default
        bootstrap nodes since they are not part of your private network, so you
        will need to set up your own bootstrap nodes.
        
        To prevent your node from even trying to connect to the default
        bootstrap nodes, run:
        
        ``` {.sourceCode .bash}
        $ ipfs bootstrap rm --all
        ```
        
        To be extra cautious, you can also set the LIBP2P\_FORCE\_PNET
        environment variable to 1 to force the usage of private networks. If no
        private network is configured, the daemon will fail to start.
