Go-FUSE provides native Go bindings for the FUSE kernel module, letting developers implement userspace filesystems in Go. It offers both node-based and path-based APIs with protocol support up to FUSE 7.12.28 and performance competitive with libfuse.
Use cases
- implement a custom filesystem in Go
- mount a zip or tar archive as a read-only filesystem
- expose a remote or virtual data store as a local mount point
- serve a filesystem to VMs via virtiofs
- create a loopback-style filesystem with custom behavior
When to choose
- you need to build a userspace filesystem in Go
- you want up-to-date FUSE protocol support including passthrough, STATX, and IOCTL
- you need cross-platform FUSE support on Linux, macOS, or FreeBSD
When to avoid
- you are writing filesystems in C and prefer libfuse directly
- you need a filesystem on Windows without a FUSE compatibility layer
- you only need to read archives rather than implement a filesystem
