readwriteseekfs

A fuse::Filesystem implementation based on any Read+Write+Seek implementation. Using this library you can easily expose file-like objects in Rust as a mountable single-file FUSE filesystem. Read-only files can be crated from just Read+Seek, without Write.

Example

See examples/simple.rs for the code.

Running the example

First console:

cargo run --example=simple

Second console:

$ hd hello.txt
