dissect.btrfs
A Dissect module implementing a parser for the Btrfs file system, a commonly used Linux filesystem. For more information, please see the documentation.
Requirements
This project is part of the Dissect framework and requires Python.
Information on the supported Python versions can be found in the Getting Started section of the documentation.
Installation
dissect.btrfs is available on PyPI.
pip install dissect.btrfs
This project decompresses LZO compressed file systems and can use a faster, native (Rust-based) LZO implementation,
instead of a slower pure Python implementation. Both implementations are provided by dissect.util.
Pre-build wheels are available for most common platforms and the native implementation will automatically be used if available.
In the rare case that a pre-build wheel is not available, please refer to dissect.util for build instructions.
Build and test instructions
This project uses tox to build source and wheel distributions. Run the following command from the root folder to build
these:
tox -e build
The build artifacts can be found in the dist/ directory.
tox is also used to run linting and unit tests in a self-contained environment. To run both linting and unit tests
using the default installed Python version, run:
tox
For a more elaborate explanation on how to build and test the project, please see the documentation.
