Prerequisites

Before using Cgofuse, you need to install Go, a C compiler, and the FUSE development libraries for your operating system.

Linux

For FUSE 2:

• Debian/Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install build-essential libfuse-dev
• Fedora/RHEL: sudo dnf install fuse-devel
• Arch: sudo pacman -Sy fuse

For FUSE 3:

• Debian/Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install build-essential libfuse3-dev
• Fedora/RHEL: sudo dnf install fuse3-devel
• Arch: sudo pacman -Sy fuse3

macOS

Install macFUSE and Command Line Tools.

brew install --cask macfuse

Windows

Just need WinfSP installed, no require copiler, as DLL is used directly.

Manual installtion: Download Winget: winget install WinFsp.WinFsp

FreeBSD

• For FUSE 2: pkg install fusefs-libs
• For FUSE 3: pkg install fusefs-libs3

NetBSD

• pkgin install librefuse

OpenBSD

The fuse library is included in the base system, but you will need a compiler.

Build fuse3

To use FUSE 3 on supported platforms (Linux, FreeBSD), use the fuse3 build tag:

go build -tags fuse3

Usage

get go module

go get -u sirherobrine23.com.br/Sirherobrine23/cgofuse

fs (recomend)

fs implements and manages a file system based on the os and syscall go, it is much faster to implement because it is not necessary to use direction fuse or winfsp
