Getting Started
Mount BrewFS
Mount with LocalFS + SQLite, or S3-compatible storage + Redis.
BrewFS separates the data backend (where object blocks live) from the metadata backend (where the namespace and slice metadata live). Any combination can be mounted.
LocalFS + SQLite
The simplest single-machine setup:
mkdir -p /tmp/brewfs-mnt /tmp/brewfs-data
cargo run -p brewfs -- mount /tmp/brewfs-mnt \
--data-backend local-fs \
--data-dir /tmp/brewfs-data \
--meta-backend sqlx \
--meta-url sqlite:///tmp/brewfs-meta.dbS3-compatible + Redis
Object storage for data, Redis for low-latency metadata:
cargo run -p brewfs -- mount /mnt/brewfs \
--data-backend s3 \
--s3-bucket brewfs-data \
--s3-endpoint http://127.0.0.1:9000 \
--meta-backend redis \
--meta-url redis://127.0.0.1:6379/0Works with MinIO, RustFS, Ceph RGW, AWS S3, and other S3-compatible services.
Unmount
fusermount3 -u /tmp/brewfs-mnt
# or, when mounted as root
sudo umount /tmp/brewfs-mnt
