About:
libferris is a virtual filesystem that exposes
hierarchical data of all kinds through a common
C++ interface. Access to data is performed using
C++ IOStreams and Extended Attributes (EA) can be
attached to each file or directory to present
metadata. Ferris uses a plugin API to read various
data sources and expose them as filesystems and to
generate interesting EA. Current implementations
include native (kernel disk IO with fam), XML (mount an XML file as a filesystem), DB4, xmldb, Evolution, Firefox, Emacs, LDAP, HTTP, FTP, eet,
sockets, RDF/XML, RDF/bdb, and mbox. EA generators
include image, audio, and animation decoders.
Release focus: Major feature enhancements
Changes:
The ability to mount xmms and amarok was added.
CLucene plugins were ported to the 0.9.x API.
Updates were made to configure.ac. A new
exif:flash-fired boolean EA was added, which shows
part of exif:flash.
