fuse-rs is a Rust library crate for implementing FUSE filesystems in userspace. It is a rewrite of the original libfuse C library, letting developers build filesystems entirely in Rust with native type safety.

Use cases

  • implement a custom filesystem in Rust
  • mount a virtual filesystem backed by an API or database
  • create a network filesystem in userspace
  • build an encrypted or read-only filesystem
  • expose archive files as a mountable filesystem

When to choose

  • you want to write a FUSE filesystem in idiomatic Rust rather than C
  • you need type-safe abstractions over the FUSE protocol
  • you target Linux, macOS, or FreeBSD

When to avoid

  • you need a mature, actively maintained FUSE binding - the project is in maintenance mode and fuser is the recommended successor
  • you need Windows support
  • you want a pure-Rust solution with no libfuse dependency
