Expose more advanced posix/file system APIs to Python

Project description

* Home: https://bitbucket.org/nasuni/fsnix
* Docs: https://fsnix.readthedocs.org/en/latest/

This library is designed to expose various file and file system related
APIs for modern POSIX compatible systems to Python. This includes
functions that wrap openat and other *at type calls (from POSIX.1-2008)
that are not available for Python 2.x. In addition it provides a stdlib
compatible listdir call which can also be used to return d_type values
from a directory entry on file systems that support that feature.

This package provides 'fsnix.fslib' which is the compiled module that
provides the "full" low-level api. The module 'fsnix.fswlib' is a
ctypes wrapper that tracks fslib where possible and can be used where
you can not use a C compiler. Finally 'fslib.util' provides some
convenient, higher-level, more pythonic interfaces that use the other
modules.
