jnr-fuse is a FUSE implementation in java using Java Native Runtime (JNR).

Project Goals

The main goal of the project is to provide an easy way to create a high-performance filesystem in userspace.

About technologies

FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) is an OS mechanism for unix-like OS that lets non-privileged users create their own file systems without editing kernel code.

Java Native Runtime (JNR) is high-performance Java API for binding native libraries and native memory.

Get it

Prior to 0.5.5, jnr-fuse was only available in JCenter. Due to sunsetting of JCenter, starting from 0.5.5 is available in maven central.

Gradle

dependencies {
    compile 'com.github.serceman:jnr-fuse:0.5.5'
}

Maven

<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.github.serceman</groupId>
        <artifactId>jnr-fuse</artifactId>
        <version>0.5.5</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

How to use

For implementing your own filesystem you just need to extend FuseStubFS class and implement methods you need.

See some examples.
