use damascus::{Filesystem, FuseOverlayFs, FuseOverlayFsOption, LinuxFilesystem, MountOption};

// handle can be created using complex or simple interface based on need
// NOTE : drop control if once dropped the filesystem should be unmounted
let mut o = FuseOverlayFs::new([&lower1, &lower2].iter(), Some(upper), Some(work), target, drop).unwrap();
// or
let mut o = FuseOverlayFs::writable([&lower1, &lower2].iter(), upper, work, &target).unwrap();
// or
let mut o = FuseOverlayFs::readonly([&lower1, &lower2].iter(), target).unwrap();

o.set_option(FuseOverlayFsOption::AllowRoot).unwrap();
o.set_unmount_on_drop(false); // true by default

// once configured you can mount it
o.mount().unwrap();

// and then unmount it
o.unmount().unwrap();

FAQ

• Will you target Windows and MacOS support?
  • In the long run some support may be implemented for those platforms as the current implementation leave place for a cross-platform support in the future.
