Hey @roobscoob, Windows support is probably possible (using Dokany or winfsp), but we've chosen not to prioritize it immediately just due to time cost.
Assuming one of those libraries supports the multithreaded libfuse API we're using, there shouldn't be any blockers. If you want Windows support immediately and you don't care as much about multithreading, take a look at the fuse-bindings module, which is what we're building off of here.
I already use (and love ❤️) the fuse-bindings module! I was looking forward to multithreading, but I'm not making any scale projects, just a hobbyist, so no worries about it. Thank you!
+1 for a winfsp fuse-friends driver ! I'm using a fuse-bindings fork backed on winfsp, working fine, but it's unsupported and performances are'nt there.
Hello. I started working on adding Windows support for this module. My fork can be found at https://github.com/raymond-h/fuse-native with another relevant fork and module found at https://github.com/raymond-h/fuse-shared-library and https://github.com/raymond-h/fuse-shared-library-win32 respectively.
The fork uses WinFsp and pthread4w (latter is prebuilt using vcpkg and bundled into the git repo of fuse-shared-library-win32
). A few issues with it:
example.js
in this repo for example requires you to hit Ctrl-C twice to finally stop the program.Aside from these issues, I got all tests to pass (excluding the tests relying on the behavior mentioned in point 3 above) and example.js
to work as expected.
This looks great ! Can this work be merged ?
@raymond-h uhh cool! are there any major hurdles/complexities/downsides with winfsp?
We could potentially add it to this org if you want, with you as the maintainer, if this is something you want to help maintain nearterm.
I would love to see Windows support as well, that would be amazing! Great work @raymond-h. Have you had a chance to fix / solve the issues / points you mentioned?
any update about this? I work with this module on Linux perfect. I want also available on windows
Hi, I'm wondering if Windows support is possible, with something like Dokany?
