GistFS
GistFS is an io/fs
implementation that enables to read files stored in a given Gist.
Requirements
This module depends on io/fs
which is only available since go 1.16.
Usage
GistFS is threadsafe.
package main
import (
"context"
"fmt"
"net/http"
"github.com/jhchabran/gistfs"
)
func main() {
// create a FS based on https://gist.github.com/jhchabran/ded2f6727d98e6b0095e62a7813aa7cf
gfs := gistfs.New("ded2f6727d98e6b0095e62a7813aa7cf")
// load the remote content once for all,
// ie, no more API calls toward Github will be made.
err := gfs.Load(context.Background())
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
// --- base API
// open the "test1.txt" file
f, err := gfs.Open("test1.txt")
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
// read its content
b := make([]byte, 1024)
_, err = f.Read(b)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
fmt.Println(string(b))
// --- ReadFile API
// directly read the "test1.txt" file
b, err = gfs.ReadFile("test1.txt")
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
fmt.Println(string(b))
// --- ReadDir API
// there is only one directory in a gistfile, the root dir "."
files, err := gfs.ReadDir(".")
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
for _, entry := range files {
fmt.Println(entry.Name())
}
// --- Serve the files from the gists over http
http.ListenAndServe(":8080", http.FileServer(http.FS(gfs)))
