| Summary : Provide POSIX-like filesystem semantics in pure Perl
|
Description :
Filesys::POSIX provides a fairly complete suite of tools comprising the
semantics of a POSIX filesystem, with path resolution, mount points,
inodes, a VFS, and some common utilities found in the userland. Some
features not found in a normal POSIX environment include the ability to
perform cross- mountpoint hard links (aliasing), mapping portions of the
real filesystem into an instance of a virtual filesystem, and allowing the
developer to attach and replace inodes at arbitrary points with
replacements of their own specification.
Two filesystem types are provided out-of-the-box: A filesystem that lives
in memory completely, and a filesystem that provides a \"portal\" to any
given portion of the real underlying filesystem.
By and large, the manner in which data is structured is quite similar to a
real kernel filesystem implementation, with some differences: VFS inodes
are not created for EVERY disk inode (only mount points); inodes are not
referred to numerically, but rather by Perl reference; and, directory
entries can be implemented in a device-specific manner, as long as they
adhere to the normal interface specified within.
