6 Arvados Keep FUSE Driver
7 ========================
12 This package provides a FUSE driver for Keep, the Arvados_ storage
13 system. It allows you to read data from your collections as if they
14 were on the local filesystem.

21 Installing under your user account
22 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
24 This method lets you install the package without root access. However,
25 other users on the same system will need to reconfigure their shell in order
26 to be able to use it. Run the following to install the package in an
27 environment at ``~/arvclients``::
29 python3 -m venv ~/arvclients
30 ~/arvclients/bin/pip install arvados_fuse
32 Command line tools will be installed under ``~/arvclients/bin``. You can
35 ~/arvclients/bin/arv-mount --version
37 You can run these tools by specifying the full path every time, or you can
38 add the directory to your shell's search path by running::
40 export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/arvclients/bin"
42 You can make this search path change permanent by adding this command to
43 your shell's configuration, for example ``~/.bashrc`` if you're using bash.
44 You can test the change by running::
48 Installing on Debian systems
49 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
51 1. Add this Arvados repository to your sources list::
53 deb http://apt.arvados.org/buster buster main
55 2. Update your package list.
57 3. Install the ``python3-arvados-fuse`` package.
62 This driver needs two pieces of information to connect to
63 Arvados: the DNS name of the API server, and an API authorization
64 token. You can set these in environment variables, or the file
65 ``$HOME/.config/arvados/settings.conf``. `The Arvados user
67 <http://doc.arvados.org/user/reference/api-tokens.html>`_ describes
68 how to find this information in the Arvados Workbench, and install it
71 Testing and Development
72 -----------------------
74 Debian packages you need to build llfuse:
76 $ apt-get install python-dev pkg-config libfuse-dev libattr1-dev
78 This package is one part of the Arvados source package, and it has
79 integration tests to check interoperability with other Arvados
80 components. Our `hacking guide
81 <https://dev.arvados.org/projects/arvados/wiki/Hacking_Python_SDK>`_
82 describes how to set up a development environment and run tests.
