Go Wrapper for ZFS
Simple wrappers for ZFS command line tools.
Requirements
You need a working ZFS setup. To use on Ubuntu 14.04, setup ZFS:
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:zfs-native/stable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-zfs libzfs-dev
Developed using Go 1.3, but currently there isn't anything 1.3 specific. Don't use Ubuntu packages for Go, use http://golang.org/doc/install
Generally you need root privileges to use anything zfs related.
Status
This has been only been tested on Ubuntu 14.04
In the future, we hope to work directly with libzfs.
Hacking
The tests have decent examples for most functions.
//assuming a zpool named test
//error handling omitted
f, err := zfs.CreateFilesystem("test/snapshot-test", nil)
ok(t, err)
s, err := f.Snapshot("test", nil)
ok(t, err)
// snapshot is named "test/snapshot-test@test"
c, err := s.Clone("test/clone-test", nil)
err := c.Destroy()
err := s.Destroy()
err := f.Destroy()
