S3FS-Fuse
|
||||
|
||||
S3FS is FUSE (File System in User Space) based solution to mount/unmount an Amazon S3 storage buckets and use system commands with S3 just like it was another Hard Disk.
|
||||
|
||||
In order to compile s3fs, You'll need the following requirements:
|
||||
|
||||
* Kernel-devel packages (or kernel source) installed that is the SAME version of your running kernel
|
||||
* LibXML2-devel packages
|
||||
* CURL-devel packages (or compile curl from sources at: curl.haxx.se/ use 7.15.X)
|
||||
* GCC, GCC-C++
|
||||
* pkgconfig
|
||||
* FUSE (>= 2.8.4)
|
||||
* FUSE Kernel module installed and running (RHEL 4.x/CentOS 4.x users - read below)
|
||||
* OpenSSL-devel (0.9.8)
|
||||
GnuTLS(gcrypt and nettle)
|
||||
NSS
|
||||
* Git
|
||||
|
||||
If you're using YUM or APT to install those packages, then it might require additional packaging, allow it to be installed.
|
||||
|
||||
Downloading & Compiling:
|
||||
------------------------
|
||||
In order to download s3fs, download from following url:
|
||||
https://github.com/s3fs-fuse/s3fs-fuse/archive/master.zip
|
||||
Or clone the following command:
|
||||
git clone git://github.com/s3fs-fuse/s3fs-fuse.git
|
||||
|
||||
Go inside the directory that has been created (s3fs-fuse) and run: ./autogen.sh
|
||||
This will generate a number of scripts in the project directory, including a configure script which you should run with: ./configure
|
||||
If configure succeeded, you can now run: make. If it didn't, make sure you meet the dependencies above.
|
||||
This should compile the code. If everything goes OK, you'll be greeted with "ok!" at the end and you'll have a binary file called "s3fs"
|
||||
in the src/ directory.
|
||||
|
||||
As root (you can use su, su -, sudo) do: "make install" -this will copy the "s3fs" binary to /usr/local/bin.
|
||||
|
||||
Congratulations. S3fs is now compiled and installed.
|
||||
|
||||
Usage:
|
||||
------
|
||||
In order to use s3fs, make sure you have the Access Key and the Secret Key handy. (refer to the wiki)
|
||||
First, create a directory where to mount the S3 bucket you want to use.
|
||||
Example (as root): mkdir -p /mnt/s3
|
||||
Then run: s3fs mybucket[:path] /mnt/s3
|
||||
|
||||
This will mount your bucket to /mnt/s3. You can do a simple "ls -l /mnt/s3" to see the content of your bucket.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to allow other people access the same bucket in the same machine, you can add "-o allow_other" to read/write/delete content of the bucket.
|
||||
|
||||
You can add a fixed mount point in /etc/fstab, here's an example:
|
||||
|
||||
s3fs#mybucket /mnt/s3 fuse allow_other 0 0
|
||||
|
||||
This will mount upon reboot (or by launching: mount -a) your bucket on your machine.
|
||||
If that does not work, probably you should specify with "_netdev" option in fstab.
|
||||
|
||||
All other options can be read at: https://github.com/s3fs-fuse/s3fs-fuse/wiki/Fuse-Over-Amazon
|
||||
|
||||
Known Issues:
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
s3fs should be working fine with S3 storage. However, There are couple of limitations:
|
||||
|
||||
* Currently s3fs could hang the CPU if you have lots of time-outs. This is *NOT* a fault of s3fs but rather libcurl. This happens when you try to copy thousands of files in 1 session, it doesn't happen when you upload hundreds of files or less.
|
||||
* CentOS 4.x/RHEL 4.x users - if you use the kernel that shipped with your distribution and didn't upgrade to the latest kernel RedHat/CentOS gives, you might have a problem loading the "fuse" kernel. Please upgrade to the latest kernel (2.6.16 or above) and make sure "fuse" kernel module is compiled and loadable since FUSE requires this kernel module and s3fs requires it as well.
|
||||
* Moving/renaming/erasing files takes time since the whole file needs to be accessed first. A workaround could be to use s3fs's cache support with the use_cache option.

s3fs
|
||||
====
|
||||
|
||||
s3fs allows Linux and Mac OS X to mount an S3 bucket via FUSE.
|
||||
s3fs preserves the native object format for files, allowing use of other tools like [s3cmd](http://s3tools.org/s3cmd).
|
||||
|
||||
Features
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
* large subset of POSIX including reading/writing files, directories, symlinks, mode, uid/gid, and extended attributes
|
||||
* compatible with Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, and other S3-based object stores
|
||||
* large files via multi-part upload
|
||||
* renames via server-side copy
|
||||
* optional server-side encryption
|
||||
* data integrity via MD5 hashes
|
||||
* in-memory metadata caching
|
||||
* local disk data caching
|
||||
* user-specified regions, including Amazon GovCloud
|
||||
* authenticate via v2 or v4 signatures
|
||||
|
||||
Installation
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
Ensure you have all the dependencies:
|
||||
|
||||
On Ubuntu 14.04:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo apt-get install automake autotools-dev g++ git libcurl4-gnutls-dev libfuse-dev libssl-dev libxml2-dev make pkg-config
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
On CentOS 7:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo yum install automake fuse-devel gcc-c++ git libcurl-devel libxml2-devel make openssl-devel
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Compile from master via the following commands:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/s3fs-fuse/s3fs-fuse.git
|
||||
cd s3fs-fuse
|
||||
./autogen.sh
|
||||
./configure
|
||||
make
|
||||
sudo make install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Examples
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
Enter your S3 identity and credential in a file `/path/to/passwd`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
echo MYIDENTITY:MYCREDENTIAL > /path/to/passwd
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Run s3fs with an existing bucket `mybucket` and directory `/path/to/mountpoint`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
s3fs mybucket /path/to/mountpoint -o passwd_file=/path/to/passwd
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you encounter any errors, enable debug output:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
s3fs mybucket /path/to/mountpoint -o passwd_file=/path/to/passwd -d -d -f -o f2 -o curldbg
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can also automatically mount via fstab:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
s3fs#mybucket /path/to/mountpoint fuse allow_other 0 0
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Limitations
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
Generally S3 cannot offer the same performance or semantics as a local file system. More specifically:
|
||||
|
||||
* random writes or appends to files require rewriting the entire file
|
||||
* metadata operations such as listing directories have poor performance due to network latency
|
||||
* [eventual consistency](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eventual_consistency) can temporarily yield stale data
|
||||
* no coordination between multiple clients mounting the same bucket
|
||||
* no hard links

||||
