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@/path1:rw,/path2 -a user2:pass2@/path3 -a @/path4

1. Use @ to separate the account and paths. No account means anonymous user.
2. Use : to separate the username and password of the account.
3. Use , to separate paths.
4. Use :rw suffix to indicate that the account has read-write permission on the path.

Examples:

• -a admin:amdin@/:rw: admin has complete permissions for all paths.
• -a guest:guest@/: guest has read-only permissions for all paths.
• -a user:pass@/dir1:rw,/dir2: user has complete permissions for /dir1/*, has read-only permissions for /dir2/.
• -a @/: All paths is publicly accessible, everyone can view/download it.

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/file is invalid.

dufs --hidden '.*'                          # hidden dotfiles
dufs --hidden '*/'                          # hidden all folders
dufs --hidden '*.log,*.lock'                # hidden by exts
dufs --hidden '*.log' --hidden '*.lock'

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'.
