SharpGrip FileSystem

Builds

Introduction

SharpGrip FileSystem is a versatile .NET file system abstraction that supports multiple storage adapters. It empowers developers to manage various file systems and services through a unified and easily comprehensible API. By coding against the abstractions provided by this library, developers can sidestep vendor-specific APIs, effectively avoiding vendor lock-ins. This flexibility enhances the portability and maintainability of the codebase, allowing for smoother transitions between different file systems.

Installation

Reference NuGet package SharpGrip.FileSystem (https://www.nuget.org/packages/SharpGrip.FileSystem).

For adapters other than the local file system (included in the SharpGrip.FileSystem package) please see the Supported adapters section.

Usage

Instantiation

var adapters = new List<IAdapter>
{
    new LocalAdapter("adapterPrefix", "adapterRootPath")
};

// Instantiation option 1.
var fileSystem = new FileSystem(adapters);

// Instantiation option 2.
var fileSystem = new FileSystem();
fileSystem.Adapters = adapters;

Local adapter

var adapters = new List<IAdapter>
{
    new LocalAdapter("local1", "/var/files"),
    new LocalAdapter("local2", "D:\\Files")
};

var fileSystem = new FileSystem(adapters);

Example operations

// Azure connection.
var azureClient = new ShareClient("connectionString", "shareName");

// Dropbox connection.
var dropboxClient = new DropboxClient("oAuth2AccessToken");

var adapters = new List<IAdapter>
{
    new LocalAdapter("local", "/var/files"),
    new AzureFileStorageAdapter("azure", "/Files", azureClient),
    new DropboxAdapter("dropbox", "/Files", dropboxClient)
};

// Copies a file from the `local` adapter to the `azure` adapter.
await fileSystem.CopyFileAsync("local://foo/bar.txt", "azure://bar/foo.txt");

// Moves a file from the `azure` adapter to the `dropbox` adapter.
await fileSystem.MoveFileAsync("azure://Foo/Bar.txt", "dropbox://Bar/Foo.txt");

// Writes string contents to the `azure` adapter.
await fileSystem.WriteFileAsync("azure://Foo.txt", "Bar!");

// Reads a text file from the `dropbox` adapter.
var contents = fileSystem.ReadTextFileAsync("dropbox://Foo.txt");
