This is an implementation of the 9p2000 protocol in Go.
There are a couple of packages here.
github.com/knusbaum/go9p just contains an interface definition for a 9p2000 server, Srv.
along with a few functions that will serve the 9p2000 protocol using a Srv.
github.com/knusbaum/go9p/proto is the protocol implementation. It is used by the other packages to
send and receive 9p2000 messages. It may be useful to someone who wants to investigate 9p2000 at the
protocol level.
github.com/knusbaum/go9p/fs is an package that implements a hierarchical filesystem as a struct, FS.
An FS contains a hierarchy of Dirs and Files. The package also contains other types and functions
useful for building 9p filesystems.
Examples are available in examples/
This library has been tested on Plan 9 and Linux.
Programs serving 9p2000 can be mounted on Unix with plan9port's 9pfuse (or some equivalent) https://github.com/9fans/plan9port
This repository now also offers the mount9p and export9p programs. mount9p replaces plan9port's 9pfuse and export9p will export part of a local namespace via 9p.
For example, you would mount the ramfs example with the following command:
9pfuse localhost:9999 /mnt/myramfs
Then you can copy files to/from the ramfs and do all the other stuff that you'd expect.
