Hello, I know this is a pretty basic and dumb question but how do i actually generate an IPFS ID from my IPFS hash using this package? Would really appreciate if someone can help me since i tried to read the documentation but i failed to comprehend any of it.

See create-record in the README and it's usage in the tests.

The returned value is the IPNS record, the IPNS name used to resolve the record by other peers is /ipns/{peerId} where {peerid} is the peer ID used to create and sign the record.
