fscrypt

gocryptfs implementation in Go fs.FS interface, as a library

Poster

Usage

Note: fscrypt is a software library.

See repository readme for document and code examples.

Cases

• Example programs
• servezip (fscrypt branch)

Reason

• Learn how gocryptfs works, as it’s different from traditional “entire file system volume in a file/partition/disk”.
• We need a simple-to-use library for using gocryptfs in code, as original gocryptfs code is not suitable to be used as a library.
• fs.FS is an awesome interface.

Notes

• Since fs.FS is a readonly interface, fscrypt is readonly too.
• It should be relatively simple to implement write interfaces, like those os functions.
• fscrypt is not intended to replace gocryptfs or other implementations.
