The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: Fuse::PerlSSH::FS
DSLIP: bnpfp
description: Mount a remote filesystem via FUSE + PerlSSH
userid: CLIPLAND (Clipland)
chapterid: 23 (Miscellaneous_Modules)
communities:
http://github.com/clipland/fuse-perlssh-fs
similar:
Filesys::Virtual::SSH
rationale:
The mounting script perlsshfs found in the distribution and its
backend module Fuse::PerlSSH::FS is meant as a drop-in replacement
for sshfs, written in Perl. The primary goal for now is to add
extended file attribute functionality (xattr) to the mounted
filesystem and only later to achieve the full feature-level of
sshfs.
Why would I want to use perlsshfs and not sshfs?
The sole motivation behind doing this is that sshfs won't support
extended file attributes (xattr) anytime soon, as it relies on
openssh's "internal FTP server". SFTP doesn't expose functions to
manipulate extended attributes on remote files, thus the sshfs
developers tend to ignore xattr. (Although there's a patched version
of sshfs floating around that in turn requires a patched version of
openssh..)
In case the cpan maintainers would like to gradually move modules
to the Filesys::Fuse:: namespace (away from top-level Fuse::), just
drop us a note and we release this module as
"Filesys::Fuse::PerlSSH::FS".
