BlobFS

A new version of this project is available here: https://git.sr.ht/~tsileo/blobfs

A FUSE file system built on top of BlobStash with built-in sync and deduplication.

Features

  • Content addressed (with BLAKE2b as hashing algorithm), files are split into blobs, and retrieved by hash, blobs are deduplicated (incremental backups by default).
  • checkout old versions as immutable snapshot
  • Easily share entire directories or single files through BlobStash

Usage

Usage of blobfs-mount:
  blobfs NAME MOUNTPOINT
  -host="": remote host, default to http://localhost:8050
  -immutable=false: make the filesystem immutable
  -loglevel="info": logging level (debug|info|warn|crit)
$ mkdir ~/docs
$ blobfs-mount documents ~/docs

TODOs

  • undo cmd like the hammer filesystem
  • Better user support
  • Better attr support
  • A web UI (DropBox like, open source too) available on my.blobfs.com that connect to the user's BlobStash instance
  • .ignore file support
  • Basic automatic conflict resolution
  • Watch the root key for update
  • bash/zsh subcommand autocompletion doc
  • A put subcommand for upload directory?
  • File locking?
