Project: Namespace-based translator selection
---
## Current Task
Write the filesystem proxy for namespace-based translator selection (*nsmux*).
The code is at <http://github.com/scolobb/nsmux/tree/master>.
---
###Current Status
####DONE:
* The skeleton which mirrors the filesystem.
####TODO:
''(I manually fixed a broken merge, so this TODO might contain outdated information - ArneBab )''
* Implemented the propagation of a translator on all files belonging
to directory 'dir' in the case of the following query: 'dir,,x'
(might change, see the thing with "recursive wrappers")
* Create the generic filter translator.
* Any translator can access the untranslated version of the node it is
to be set upon by specifying the corresponding flags to the
<lib>_startup routine, where <lib> is the name of the library used
to create the translator.
* Create the translator '0' (providing the untranslated version of the
node).
* Create the "recursive wrappers" for one-node translators.
* Provide proxy nodes (modify the standard version of netfs_S_dir_lookup).
* Create the generic filtering translator.
* Create the translator '0' (providing the untranslated version of the
node).
* Create the "recursive wrappers" for one-node translators.
* Create special translators for the main proxy so that its functionality
should be complete.
* Refine the skeleton in several places so that it should become faster
and more reliable.
* Kill bugs.
* Integrate nsmux upstream.
* Solve the libtrivfs stacking issue.
* Patch libnetfs (it does not support file_get_translator_cntl, for
instance).
* Patch libnetfs (?).
---
###Progress
####6: Mon Aug 4 - ?
> Implementing the proxy nodes.
####5: Thu Jul 24 - Thu Jul 24:
> Created a *libnetfs*-based one-node translator, working exactly like the *libtrivfs*-based translator I had written before; the former, however, can be included in a translator stack.
####4: Tue Jul 22 - Thu Jul 24:
> Attempted to make a *libtrivfs*-based translator to be able to be stacked upon itself (to be able to receive a translator on top of itself, more exactly); attempted to borrow some code from *libnetfs* but this didn't bring any results.
####3: Sun Jul 20 - Tue Jul 22:
> Implemented the possibility to propagate a translator on all files belonging to a directory 'dir' in the request of the type 'dir,,x/'.
####2: Thu Jul 17 - Fri Jul 18:
> Extended the lookup code in *nsmux* to allow for looking up nodes like 'file,,x' and added the possibility to escape the double-comma in the following way: ',,,'.
####1: Mon Jul 12 - Tue Jul 13:
> Implemented a simple *libtrivfs*-based translator to test the lookup code for *nsmux*.
####0: Sat Jul 12 - Sat Jul 12:
> Made small changes to the code of *filterfs* to fit the needs of *nsmux*.
---
## Completed Tasks
####2: Sat May 3 - Fri Jul 17:
> Write a translator that should filter the contents of the directory it is set on according to some property. The property can be an arbitrary command.
> The code is at <http://github.com/scolobb/filterfs/tree/master>.
####1: Mon Apr 28 - Wed Apr 30:
> Wrote a Python extension module in C for retreiving the uptime. The module is based on the code of *w*.
####0: Sun Apr 27:
> Followed the code of *dmesgd* (<http://www.bddebian.com/junk/dmesgd/>) kindly offered by **bddebian** and rewrote it from scratch as a tutorial.
