import (
    "context"
    "fmt"

    ipfsClient "github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs-http-client"
    path "github.com/ipfs/interface-go-ipfs-core/path"
)

func main() {
    // "Connect" to local node
    node, err := ipfsClient.NewLocalApi()
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Printf(err)
        return
    }
    // Pin a given file by its CID
    ctx := context.Background()
    cid := "bafkreidtuosuw37f5xmn65b3ksdiikajy7pwjjslzj2lxxz2vc4wdy3zku"
    p := path.New(cid)
    err = node.Pin().Add(ctx, p)
    if err != nil {
    	fmt.Printf(err)
