Fuser is a Rust library crate for implementing FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) filesystems. It is a rewrite of the original libfuse C library, providing safe Rust bindings and abstractions for communicating with the kernel FUSE driver.

Use cases

  • implement a custom filesystem in Rust
  • mount a virtual filesystem backed by an API or database
  • build an encrypted or read-only filesystem for Linux
  • expose remote storage as a local mounted filesystem
  • prototype kernel-like filesystem behavior in userspace

When to choose

  • you are writing a FUSE filesystem in Rust and want idiomatic, safe APIs
  • you need support for newer FUSE kernel ABI versions beyond 7.19
  • you want to avoid C libfuse dependencies on Linux

When to avoid

  • you need a FUSE implementation in another language
  • you target platforms without FUSE kernel support
  • you need a ready-made filesystem rather than a library to build one
