The Python-LLFUSE Module

.. start-intro

This is a fork of Python-LLFUSE used by the Arvados project to support "arv-mount". If you are trying to install "arv-mount" you want the "arvados_fuse" package.

Python-LLFUSE is a set of Python bindings for the low level FUSE_ API. It requires at least FUSE 2.8.0 and supports both Python 2.x and 3.x. Like FUSE itself, Python-LLFUSE is developed for Linux systems, but it should be compatible with OS-X, FreeBSD and NetBSD as well.

Python-LLFUSE releases can be downloaded from PyPi_. The documentation can be read online__ and is also included in the doc/html directory of the Python-LLFUSE tarball.
