Advanced topics
Access Control
Dufs supports account based access control. You can control who can do what on which path with --auth/-a.
dufs -a [user:pass]@path[:rw][,path[:rw]...][|...]
- Multiple rules are separated by "|"
- User and pass are the account name and password, if omitted, it is an anonymous user
- One rule can set multiple paths, separated by ","
- Add
:rwafter the path to indicate that the path has read and write permissions, otherwise the path has readonly permissions.
dufs -A -a admin:admin@/:rw
admin has all permissions for all paths.
dufs -A -a admin:admin@/:rw -a guest:guest@/
guest has readonly permissions for all paths.
dufs -A -a admin:admin@/:rw -a @/
All paths is public, everyone can view/download it.
dufs -A -a admin:admin@/:rw -a user1:pass1@/user1:rw -a user2:pass2@/user2
dufs -A -a "admin:admin@/:rw|user1:pass1@/user1:rw|user2:pass2@/user2"
user1 has all permissions for /user1/* path. user2 has all permissions for /user2/* path.
dufs -A -a user:pass@/dir1:rw,/dir2:rw,dir3
user has all permissions for /dir1/* and /dir2/*, has readonly permissions for /dir3/.
dufs -a admin:admin@/
Since dufs only allows viewing/downloading, admin can only view/download files.
Hide Paths
Dufs supports hiding paths from directory listings via option --hidden <glob>,....
dufs --hidden .git,.DS_Store,tmp
The glob used in --hidden only matches file and directory names, not paths. So
--hidden dir1/fileis invalid.
dufs --hidden '.*' # hidden dotfiles
dufs --hidden '*/' # hidden all folders
dufs --hidden '*.log,*.lock' # hidden by exts
Log Format
Dufs supports customize http log format with option --log-format.
The log format can use following variables.
| variable | description |
|---|---|
| $remote_addr | client address |
| $remote_user | user name supplied with authentication |
| $request | full original request line |
| $status | response status |
| $http_ | arbitrary request header field. examples: $http_user_agent, $http_referer |
The default log format is '$remote_addr "$request" $status'.
