FUSE for Windows/Cygwin now available
- bpye 10y agoIt's worth mentioning than Dokany also provides a FUSE compatible API, see https://github.com/dokan-dev/dokany https://github.com/dokan-dev/dokany
- captainmuon 10y agoNice, I've been looking for something like this. Now if this would be available for WSL, that would be perfect. My organisation (ATLAS experiment) provides binaries for CentOS and OS X via CVMFS, a HTTP based fuse-filesystem. You source a simple bash script and can use any release of our whole stack (also stuff like different gcc versions). This is one major reason many of my colleagues switched to Mac. If I'd be able to use CVMFS (and maybe AFS) from WSL which can run Linux binaries, suddenly windows would become a fully featured dev platform for us.
- bpye 10y agoI would suggest upvoting https://wpdev.uservoice.com/forums/266908-command-prompt-console-bash-on-ubuntu-on-windo/suggestions/13522845-add-fuse-filesystem-in-userspace-support-in-wsl https://wpdev.uservoice.com/forums/266908-command-prompt-con... if that's something you want to see.
- rkeene2 10y agoAppFS ( http://appfs.rkeene.org http://appfs.rkeene.org ) addresses similar functionality as CVMFS, but with much more support for fancy things, like writing and setsid files, safely. I am looking at porting it to Windows, but it is a low priority.
- fithisux 10y agoExteremely useful.
- rurban 10y agoOh nice. I also spent a day some years ago to add fuse support to cygwin proper, but got stuck somewhere and never published my code. Good that someone finally did it.
