codeserver/codeserver-s3-filesystem repository overview

NB: experimental, use at your own risk :-)

Creates an S3 backed up filesystem using yas3fs which is synced to a local volume which can then be mounted by other Docker containers for fun and profit.

Features

• Local volume continuously syncs to FUSE mounted S3 volume using rsync
• Local volume remains responsive and fast, but regularly updates to S3
• Local volume can be imported by other containers, S3 volume remains private
• Only syncs if local volume files have changed, uses inotify for immediate syncs
• Simple quota system, stops files being copied to S3 volume once limit is reached
• File count limit, because this is all very, very slow :-)
• Daily/monthly tarball backups to S3
