NDN-friendly file system (based on FUSE)
An updated version of the implementation (that works with the ndn-cpp (tested with 0.7)) can be found here. More later.
Dependencies:
- OXSFUSE 2.5.6;
- MongoDB 2.4.5 (including its cpp library ver. 2.4.5);
- ndn.cxx library;
- boost library;
To compile the source code:
./waf configure (--debug)
./waf
To run on Mac:
mkdir /tmp/ndnfs
./build/ndnfs /tmp/ndnfs
This will mount the file system to local folder '/tmp/ndnfs/'. To unmount NDNFS, simply type:
umount /tmp/ndnfs
Use '-f' to run in foreground and see debug info (if you compiled with --debug option):
./build/ndnfs -f /tmp/ndnfs
If '-f' is used, NDNFS is unmounted automatically when you kill 'ndnfs' process.
To specify a global prefix for all the files stored in NDNFS:
./build/ndnfs -f /tmp/ndnfs -o prefix=/ndn/ucla.edu/cs/wentao/ndnfs
In this case, the NDN Content Object name is the global prefix + absolute file path.
Dependencies:
- libfuse-dev (can be installed with apt-get)
- libboost-all-dev (can be installed with apt-get)
- MongoDB library 2.4.3
- ndn.cxx library
Note: the MongoDB package in the Ubuntu default package pool is too old. Follow http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-ubuntu/ to install MongoDB 2.4.3 and then download and install MongoDB C++ Driver 2.4.3 from http://dl.mongodb.org/dl/cxx-driver.
Usage is the same as on Mac OSX.
