Package vfs provides a pluggable, extensible, and opinionated set of filesystem functionality for Go across a number of filesystem types such as os, S3, and GCS. When building our platform, initially we wrote a library that was something to the effect of Not only was ugly but because the behaviors of each "filesystem" were different and we had to constantly alter the file locations and pass a bucket string (even if the fs didn't know what a bucket was). We found a handful of third-party libraries that were interesting but none of them had everything we needed/wanted. Of particular inspiration was https://github.com/spf13/afero in its composition of the super-powerful stdlib io.* interfaces. Unfortunately, it didn't support Google Cloud Storage and there was still a lot of passing around of strings and structs. Few, if any, of the vfs-like libraries provided interfaces to easily and confidently create new filesystem backends. What we needed/wanted was the following(and more): Go install: Glide installation: We provide vfssimple as basic way of initializing filesystem backends (see each implementations's docs about authentication). vfssimple pulls in every c2fo/vfs backend. If you need to reduce the backend requirements (and app memory footprint) or add a third party backend, you'll need to implement your own "factory". See backend doc for more info. You can then use those file systems to initialize locations which you'll be referencing frequently, or initialize files directly With a number of files and locations between s3 and the local file system you can perform a number of actions without any consideration for the system's api or implementation details. Third-party Backends Feel free to send a pull request if you want to add your backend to the list.
