This exists! Check the Github repo. This is bundled with the Ghost Blog on Heroku with IPFS.
Description
Using ghost-storage-adapter-s3 as a model, create an IPFS adapter for the Ghost 2.x blog system that uses the FISSION IPFS API.

User Impact
Who would want to use this and why?
Fission uses Ghost for our blog, and maintains heroku-ipfs-ghost, a “Deploy to Heroku” distribution of Ghost. We will include the adapter in heroku-ipfs-ghost and make it work with our upcoming Heroku add on.

I made a new repo that includes the previous Ghost2 work.
Original blog post on this:
Features
Create a Github repo that contains the storage adapter
In such a way that it can be included via NPM/yarn in package.json. Expects configuration through env variables compatible with how Heroku works. Should mirror how the S3 adapter works, except with different variables.
Initial template repo created here: GitHub - fission-codes/ghost-storage-adapter-ipfs: A storage adapter for the Ghost blogging platform that stores files in IPFS with Fission
Bundle with Fission Heroku add-on
For deployment on Heroku, the heroku-ipfs-ghost app.json should include adding the Fission IPFS add-on.
Choice of gateway
Choose which gateway to use. Defaults to ipfs.io, or add your own – e.g. ipfs.runfission.com.
Future / Ideas / Research
Serve IPFS “natively”
In an IPFS enabled browser, can we detect this and serve up IPFS hashes instead of Web2 gateway URI + IPFS hash?
