I agree, go would be perfect for these tools.
Static compilation makes deployment trivial.

Personally, I'd use Go which is performant as you put it. You could
reuse(read fork) this project: https://github.com/aisola/go-coreutils
And also leverage Kaushal's go bindings (
https://forge.gluster.org/gogfapi#more) which itself can grow along with
glusterfs-coreutils project.

Having previously worked at Facebook myself I know that it's absolutely
critical that these tools be as performant as possible. I understand the
desire to program these in Python because it allows more people to
participate but unfortunately in this case it's not possible.
Craig - Let us know when you push your code. I'll start lending a hand
as soon as I can.

I've already started writing the utilities in C per my internship
project. I'll push these up when ready (most probably sometime this week)
as a POC.
Maybe then we can look into implementing with Python?

I was thinking the other way around. Write it in python then optimize
if it's necessary.

Thoughts? I'm down with writing them in C. I could use more practice.

Yeah I have this repo but it's basically empty:

AFAIK the plan is to collaborate through a git repo in
github.com/gluster
account. But anything that works should be good...
And the choice of language seems to be python.
Depending on the target systems, Python may not be suitable. There
are
cloud deployments that do not have Python installed. I think that
even
includes the minimal cloud images Fedora and CentOS provide. IMHO
would
be nice to be able to support those systems too, without pulling
in too
many dependencies.
But, I'll leave it up to the people writing the code ;-)
Cheers,

Chris,
That sounds good to me.
I already have started on implementation, just to get familiar
with the
codebase and GFAPI.
Is there a public repo that we can use for collaboration?

Craig,
I was actually planning on building the same tool set. I would
like to
work with you also on this if that's ok.

Hi everyone,
This summer I am an intern at Facebook working on the
Gluster team.
Part of
my project for the summer includes developing a set of
coreutils that
utilizes the Gluster C API natively.
This project is similar in nature to the NFS coreutils that
some of
you may
have heard about from the other Facebook engineers at the
Gluster
summit
recently. I just wanted to reach out to the Gluster
community to gather
ideas, potential features, feedback, and direction.
The initial set of utilities that I am developing includes
the
following:
* cat
* mkdir
* put (read from stdin and write to a file)
* mv
* ls
* rm
* tail
Again, any feedback will be welcome.
Hi, Craig, and welcome to the project. :)
There seems to be some overlap with a proposal Ragahavendra
Talur sent
out
a couple of days ago.
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v1/url?u=https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yuRLRbdccx_0V0UDAxqWbz4g983q5inuINHgM1YO040/edit?usp%3Dsharingk=ZVNjlDMF0FElm4dQtryO4A%3D%3D%0Ar=ThH6JMKaB%2Fxgkh9d2jPjehcdps8B69L0q04jdBbZvX4%3D%0Am=86la5Xg7nlxAzIR6E5c2v2SgQSd6VssYzB%2BklM3wf%2BI%3D%0As=8d55bb5770b8ed1d683a6908a05af32b79289735c537c660252fcaa7c690e162
This seems like an excellent opportunity to collaborate.
Ideally, I
think
it would be useful to have both an FTP-client-like shell
and a set of
standalone one shot commands, based on as much common code
as
possible.
