JavaFS

Java filesystems as FUSE

Requirements

Java 8 and up.

Your OS must support FUSE or have it installed.

Usage

The API consists of a single class with two methods:

• JavaFS.mount, which mounts a Java FileSystem as FUSE filesystem, and
• JavaFS.unmount, which unmounts a FUSE filesystem

Test

$ java -cp ... co.paralleluniverse.javafs.Main [-r] <mountpoint> [<zipfile>]

Compatibility

• OS X with MacFUSE/fuse4x/OSXFUSE on Intel architectures
• Linux with FUSE on Intel, PowerPC and ARM architectures
• FreeBSD with FUSE on Intel architectures

Project Information

This is essentially a port of fuse-jna, by Etienne Perot, from JNA to JNR, with some code copied from jnr-fuse, by Sergey Tselovalnikov, made to work with the standard JDK FileSystem API.

• Differences from fuse-jna: this project uses JNR rather than JNA.
• Differences from jnr-fuse: this project supports Java 7 (jnr-fuse supports only Java 8), and more platforms (like Mac).
• Differences from both: rather than exposing a new, specific, Java FUSE API, this project uses the standard FileSystem API.
