Description

Instead of passing ```--api="/ip4/192.168.1.10/tcp/45001"``` to ipfs every execution, it would be nice if it accepted an environment variable for this setting.

```IPFS_API``` or something similar. This would likely be handy when running ipfs in docker containers connecting to a central node as well.

```IPFS_PATH``` is already offered... so seems like a reasonable request.
