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: Minor feature enhancements
Changes:
Mounting large postgresql tables is now
substantially faster. Postgresql mounts now
support remove() for tuples. Updates were made for
rsync with ferrisfs. The eanames-to-index-regex
whitelist was added to improve performance when
adding to metadata indexes.
idxmgr-explicit-eanames-to-index-k was added for
significant performance improvements for some
filesystems. Postgresql metadata indexing was
updated. Special char escaping in
EANameToSQLColumnName() was improved. Initial
optional support was added for using libgist
(monkeyiq fork). Many improvements were made to
ferris-lattice-from-cfi.
