Python reflink
Python wrapper around the reflink system calls. Note: Python is implementing this natively upstream, cfr. https://bugs.python.org/issue37157.
Free software: MIT license
Documentation: https://reflink.readthedocs.io.
Documentation for master branch: https://rubdos.gitlab.io/pyreflink/docs
Features
Btrfs, XFS, OCFS2 reflink support. Btrfs is tested the most.
Apple macOS APFS clonefile support. Little testing, be careful. It might eat data.
A convenience method that checks support for reflinks within a specific directory.
Installation
This library is available on pypi:
pip install reflink
Quick start example
To use Python reflink in a project:
from reflink import reflink
# Reflink copy 'large_file.img' to 'copy_of_file.img'
reflink("large_file.img", "copy_of_file.img")
Help wanted
Someone to implement a Windows/ReFS implementation
