Method Fuse.run()

Method run

int run(Operations handler, array(string) args)

Description

Start fuse. Args is as in argv in main(). This function will not return.

The first argument (argv[0], program name) is used as the filesystem name. The first non-flag argument after argv[0] is used as the mountpoint. Otherwise these arguments are supported:

     -d                  enable debug output (implies -f)
     -f                  foreground operation
     -s                  disable multithreaded operation
     -r                  mount read only (equivalent to '-o ro')
     -o opt,[opt...]     mount options
     -h                  print help
 

Mount options:

     rootmode=M             permissions of the '/' directory in the filesystem (octal)
     user_id=N              user of '/' (numeric)
     group_id=N             group of '/' (numeric)
     default_permissions    enable permission checking

  By default FUSE doesn't check file access permissions, the
  filesystem is free to implement it's access policy or leave it to
  the underlying file access mechanism (e.g. in case of network
  filesystems).  This option enables permission checking,
  restricting access based on file mode.  It is usually useful
  together with the 'allow_other' mount option.

     allow_other            allow access to other users

 This option overrides the security measure restricting file access
 to the user mounting the filesystem.  This option is by default
 only allowed to root, but this restriction can be removed with a
 (userspace) configuration option (in fuse.ini).

     large_read             issue large read requests (2.4 only)
     max_read=N             set maximum size of read requests (default 128K)
     hard_remove            immediate removal (don't hide files)
     debug                  enable debug output
     fsname=NAME            set filesystem name in mtab (overrides argv[0])
     auto_unmount           enable unmount on crash
 

This function blocks until the filesystem is unmounted.

Returns

Returns a non-negative integer.

0	Returns 0 (zero) on successfull mount followed by unmount.
1	Invalid options in args.
2	No mount poiunt specified.
3	FUSE setup failed.
4	Mounting failed.
5	Failed to daemonize (detach from session).
6	Failed to set up signal handlers.
7	An error occurred during the life of the file system.

Note

Prior to Pike 9.0 this function called exit() with the return code.

Note

Only one call of this function may be active at a time.
