Async-first, secure, and extensible storage backend abstraction for the Darca ecosystem.

darca-storage provides a clean interface for reading and writing to structured storage backends — local, cloud, or custom — with support for path confinement, credential injection, and session-aware logic.

Features

  • ✅ Async-compatible FileBackend interface

  • 🔐 Scoped access via ScopedFileBackend

  • 🧠 Session-aware StorageClient with observability

  • 🔌 Pluggable storage connectors (e.g., file://)

  • 🔄 Credential and user context propagation

  • 🧪 Easy to test and extend


📦 Installation

pip install darca-storage

Or using Poetry:

poetry add darca-storage

Quick Example

from darca_storage.factory import StorageConnectorFactory

client = await StorageConnectorFactory.from_url("file:///tmp/darca")

await client.write("hello.txt", content="Hello Darca!")
text = await client.read("hello.txt")
print(text)

Security by Default

All paths are resolved via ScopedFileBackend, which:

  • Normalizes and confines all access to a declared base_path

  • Prevents path traversal (e.g., ../../etc/passwd)

  • Raises StorageClientPathViolation if the boundary is violated


Extending

Implement a new backend:

class MyBackend(FileBackend):
    async def read(self, path: str, *, binary=False) -> Union[str, bytes]:
        ...

Implement a new connector:

class MyConnector(StorageConnector):
    async def connect(self) -> FileBackend:
        return ScopedFileBackend(...)

Then register your scheme inside StorageConnectorFactory.
