Package rwvfs augments vfs to support write operations.
This repository includes HTTP server and client implementations of a read-write virtual filesystem. The HTTP server is a Go http.Handler that exposes any underlying RWVFS via HTTP. The HTTP client is a Go implementation of rwvfs.FileSystem that communicates with an external HTTP server. They both speak the same API on top of HTTP; see the code for details.
To spin up a test client and server, follow these instructions. (They require Go and a $GOPATH set; as a quickstart, install the latest Go from golang.org and then run export GOPATH=$HOME; export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin.)
