Alveo File System - a FUSE filesystem capable of mounting Alveo HcsVlab API (HTTP-JSON) as a local read-only filesystem.
Based upon HTTPFS - https://github.com/Kurocon/HTTPfs
Python dependencies (works on both Python 2 and 3):
- requests
- fusepy
- six
usage: alveofs.py [-h] [--foreground] [--debug] [--nothreads] [--no_ssl_verify]
[--allow_other]
http_resource mountpoint x-api-key
positional arguments:
http_resource Target web directory index
mountpoint Target directory
x-api-key Alveo X-API-KEY (generated by Alveo HcsVlab)
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--foreground Do not fork into background (default: False)
--debug Enable debug logging (default: False)
--nothreads Disable fuse threads (default: False)
--no_ssl_verify Disable SSL Verification (default: False)
--allow_other Allow users other than the one running the command to
access the directory. (default: False)
You can register this filesystem (so it can be used in fstab or with the mount command) in the following way:
# Clone the repository
git clone [email protected]:Alveo/AlveoFS.git
# Change into directory
cd AlveoFS
# Make a symbolic link to /usr/local/bin
sudo ln -s `pwd`/alveofs.py /usr/local/bin/mount.alveofsYou should now be able to use the filesystem in the following ways:
# In a normal mount command
sudo mount.alveofs http://some.server/ /mnt/mountpoint <X-API-KEY> --debug --allow_other
# Or using the normal mount command
sudo mount -t alveofs http://some.server/ /mnt/mountpoint <X-API-KEY> --debug --allow_other
